#3 Did the USA hold peace talks with Bushido Japan, Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, or Baathist Iraq? Order the Taliban to surrender unconditionally, and nuke them and Pakistan to hell if they don't, or give up.

It's either "Nothing Less Than Victory" or "Please let me live a little bit longer, in fear and slavery." Which alternative has Obama chosen for America?

And no, "nation building" and 100k soldiers in Afghanistan for a decade are not --and never were-- valid options.

#4 Give us an excuse to fight our way out.

If you are going to be a bunch of a-holes, than there is no reason to leave you anything. Should we level the place before we leave?

Stupid, weak assed POTUS.
