    Well, gosh, wouldn’t it just be a tragedy if this is the case? What will the Left do if we consolidate our success in Afghanistan? They are so invested in renewed violence, a resurgent Taliban, and ultimate American defeat. What will they do? They will be in a depression!

    Oh so true Robert, but do keep in mind that the liberal left declared Vietnam lost after the Tet Offensive and then made it so, despite the fact that Tet was a resounding military success for the US. Had the US kept up pressure on the North following Tet, the war would’ve ended sooner and millions of lives would’ve been saved. They’re trying to do the same thing in Afghanistan and Iraq. We have the enemy on the ropes and they’re trying to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Makes me wonder if they’re getting their stategic planning from the former coaching staff for the Arizona Cardinals.

    BTW Have you heard about the terrorists in Iraq resorting to using…. OMG CHEMICAL WEAPONS!!!. Yes, libs I know that you may not consider Chlorine Gas a chemical weapon, but if you take a high school chemistry class, you’ll learn that Chlorine is a CHEMICAL. BTW Libs, here is a bit of advice, DO NOT MIX CHLORINE BLEACH WITH AMMONIA CLEANER!!! That produces chlorine gas and is VERY dangerous.

    I have had serious fears about them doing something like that here. There are so many pool companies in the Phoenix or LA areas that it would take nothing to get a couple of trucks full of pool Chlorine and produce a cloud of chlorine gas. With the propensity of developers here in Phoenix to want to make every street end in a cul de sac every other block and enclose entire developments with block walls, evacuation from such an attack would be nearly impossible. A well coordinated attack in the middle of the night, could make 9/11 look like a walk in the park. Hundreds, possibly thousands dead. Thousands more sick or injured, some of them with severe permanent damage to their lungs, throat, mucus membranes and eyes. And wide areas in need of decontamination. We’re also only a 3 hour drive from the Mexican border, so getting here and escaping back to Mexico wouldn’t be an issue. Hell, illegals commit crimes here and are back across the border before we can catch them.

    Let the Army run the war and put some political rats in prison here.
