[Vision2020] Say What?

[Sunil Ramalingam]

I'm with Chuck on this.  Obama has adopted the prosecution of the Afghanistan war, and it will go no better for him than for Bush, and no better than Vietnam went for the presidents who prosecuted that war.

If anyone can show me where there has been a successful occupation of Afghanistan, I'll be willing to look at it, and perhaps think there's a reason to change my mind.  

Continued bombing in Pakistan by unmanned aircraft.  How can this be considered anything but an act of war? How can a legitimate Pakistani government remain in power while allowing this to happen?  Would you support an American leader who allowed someone to bomb us?  Why would anyone think it would succeed in Afghanistan or Pakistan?
