Chuck Todd IS an idiot. [View all]

Paraphrasing Chuckie Jeez: Joe Biden has lost the competency. It's tough to get back.

I have been reading up on Afghan history from people who actually know the country, including veterans. The impression I'm getting is that THIS is the best we were ever going to do. These people do not have a history of following one leader of the entire country. They have a history of following their tribes and Imams. Even in 20 years the soldiers we were training did not stay on the job, for a number of reasons.

It really is time to get Chuck Todd out of MSNBC. He is a newsman, and should be more up on the details than anyone else. Instead, it seems like he has his ear to the wall of conservative rooms. I may just have to stick to 4-5 favorite on the station.
