what you are talking about. The civilian population dreads the Taliban. There is no such thing as "good Taliban". These are people who stone women to death and don't allow girls to go to school. If you are comfortable with that, what does that say about you? They are monstrous. Obama does not want to win because he and his fellow Dems are anti military L O S E R S.

Dems Change Stance on Military and Afghanistan

At the Democratic National Convention in Denver last summer, then-Sen. Barack Obama pledged to "finish the fight against the Taliban in Afghanistan."

Lately Obama has toned down his rhetoric when it comes to succeeding in Afghanistan. "I'm always worried about using the word 'victory,' because, you know, it invokes this notion of Emperor Hirohito coming down and signing a surrender to MacArthur," the president told ABC in July.

Apparently the "the audacity of hope" approach does not apply to the U.S. military fighting against al-Qaida and the Taliban.
