A Complete Waste of Space

look, Happy, although you're probably entirely too stupid to see the problem, I'll spell it out for you: You represent one political extreme that feeds on a divisive line of stupidity that says, 'anyone that isn't from the extreme right is a communist and thus dangerous'.

We're fighting the same SOB's that the Russians were and we were supplying them to fight the Russians. Now the Russians and the Chinese are supporting the...

....a few years ago, 2007 to be exact, I wrote on these pages and another, unamed, site that the West had possibly overstayed the welcome in Afghanistan, and might want to just bag the whole effort. Three years later, I almost think I was being overly rosy in my words, although, at the time, I took ...
