straw man, no way. The liberals used the eye off the ball in afganistan argument throuhgout this period. YOu think guys like bentway and tejek really would support an escalation in afganistan and pakistan to take out al quaeda. No way, jose, No straws for you.
As for South Wahiristn, how would you go after al queada there. If you had a shot at bin laden, would you take it if he were at one of those super frequent pashtun weddings they apparently use for cover? What if a hundered locals had to pay the price for being near 100 top al quada? Will we ever be able to fight a war again or will every potential battle judged on how many goats get killed. This is how the euros want to fight in afganistan. No night fighting.

Diversion. ONe thing that might hurt obama. More and more americans it was reported this weekend were imploring their representatives to drill offshore, in alaska etc. Americans get it. Shortages require production as well as conservation and as well as new technologies. People in MI could give a shit about some rich miamians coastal view or some blue haired ex teachers revulsion at 300 yards of drilling in anwar.
