Politicians lost their will. I agree. That would be Nixon, since

escalated. Thus, we lost the war. Facts not bull**** of any kind.
Just like the Crusade we are on now,
That war was not going to be won.

Neither conflict is currently a crusade. That's from a different
administration. It's unclear what the outcome is going to be in
either
place.
I bet your average Iraqi or Afghani can't tell the difference, nor
can
the GIs who are getting blown up by road side bombs or in mountain
ambushes.
This is a war of necessity.

It is necessary that we *win* this war.

So saith the messiah.

What happens if he decides to leave? Will we have *lost*?

This is the messiah of change and he has demonstrated it is easy to
change his mind on things. A couple CNN polls seems to do the trick.
I think we are going to declare victory, cut and run ... at least I
hope so.

What's wrong with changing your mind about something? If you can't do
that,
you shouldn't be in charge.
Didn't we change our minds about Vietnam? Does changing your mind mean
you've 'lost'?

So, what you're saying is that if one changes one mind once, and it
doesn't
turn out the way you want, it's a bad thing to change your mind in the
future?
Where did you see me say that?

This was my last post: "Didn't we change our minds about Vietnam?
Does changing your mind mean you've 'lost'?"

You implied that it was OK for the President to change his mind,
meaning, I suppose, that the Afghanistan war is no longer one of
necessity. OK, so if we now cut and run, will we have lost?

If you want to change the subject and run, that's OK. You backed
yourself into a corner.

My question, from the last post, still stands.


Read my response to the previous post and get back to me when you understand
it.


It's understood.

Now answer the question.


Pushy little broad, eh?
