#1 What Barry needs to do is find a Muzzie, crown him general and turn every TOC into a Mosque. Then good American men and women can go home. When there is trouble send in the 52's and be done with it. F@ck Afghanistan, it's not worth one more death, American that is....

#2 A related article at Independent.co.uk contains this paragraph:
General McChrystal's presentation to Nato defence ministers and Isaf representatives provided an uncompromising obstacle to Mr Obama's plan to bring troops home in time to give him a shot at a second term, according to senior military sources. The general was judged to be "off message" in his warning to ministers not to expect quick results and that they were facing a "resilient and growing insurgency".
Thus the reality on the ground and military necessity-- not to mention our troops' very lives-- take a back seat to Obumble's desire to get himself re-elected by placating his Loony Left Liberal base with an Afghanistan withdrawal next July.

We need rope, lots of it. And pitchforks, and torches...
