#4 Word to Karzai: make sure that plane stuffed with cash is fueled up and standing by. Also, beware the Inshallah maintenance...

#7 Maybe this is why the Bush administration treated this backwater stank-hole as second fiddle in the war on terror. The adults in the room can spot a tar baby when they see one. Leave to Obumbles to declare Afghanistan as the pivotal battlefield, abandon our gains in Iraq and then a short few years later, lose our way with the afghans. Rank amateur, and the first anti-American president in history. I hope to hell we avoid an Elphinstone scene as we exit the suck. I don't know who commands in Kabul now - but if he's an Obumbles appointee, then a rout is definitely a possibility.
