Worst. President. Ever.

No kidding---Clinton would kicked all their asses with one hand tied behind his back.

Military commanders have been screaming for more resources since the war started in Afganistan but it falls on deaf ears. The only secure area is the capital. We can't seem to get anything right where our armed forces are concerned. We have the greatest fighting machine in the world and we end up being our own worst enemy. Unbelievable.

He did in the Balkans.

Wesley Clark didn't lose a single American soldier.

Hey--now there's a one-to-one comparison if I ever saw one. Was that war legal BTW ?

Certainly the worst POTUS in my lifetime.

I cannot think of a single area of American foreign policy or domestic that isn't in worse shape because of this Administration.

Hey Duck! This is a joke right

The only Clinton that might be able to kick @ss is Hillary kicking Slick Willies! She just might be the only one in the family with "balls"

And I don't like either of them!

Or let the Predator drone fly around and not kill Osama Bin Laden. Or severely reduce our intel capabilities and armed forces.

Let's look at Carter and the crisis he went through. JFK with the Bay of Pigs. Or the various attacks against the US while slick Willy was in office.

You say it's a failed war and then support that statement with a link to the news report of French troops killed by a Taliban ambush. Sorry, I fail to understand your logic. How is it a failed war? Or do you not expect casualties in war?

You wipe your arse with your bare left hand, but consider bacon 'unclean.'

You consider television dangerous, but routinely carry explosives in your clothing

You clearly have zero understanding of what is going on over there.

Really? What do you base that assumption on Sealy? Having served with 3 Commando Brigade in 2006/7, I know more of what is going on over there than you and your kind ever will.

Seems your maker played a mean trick on you when he put your ass where your mouth should have been.

The situation in Afghanistan is that the US and NATO forces are stretched too thinly to provide maximum coverage. While the alliance has not suffered any military defeats, there are not enough troops to make progress in all parts of the country.

More troops are needed to hold cleared areas. Eventually, the holding phase will be performed by the Afghan security forces, but they're not ready to carry out that task yet. In the meantime the need is for three additional brigades. Without this extra strength, civil development will be slow.

It's about time some of the other NATO countries stepped up to the plate and pulled their weight!!!

Because idiot politicians are the ones who employ it, and want to play armchair general and make decisions better left to the professionals.

And that would be idiot politicians from BOTH parties, not just the Bush administration.
