Of course a lot of "liberal" blogs picked up your Afghanistan article...they probably read the title...but didn't read the entire article! These are the same people who were completely against the Iraq war, and in the same breath want us to send "peacekeepers" to many parts of Africa under the same conditions!

They are caught in the same "politics only, war only" thinking!
