Maxine Waters: "I don't get it. Where does it end? It doesn't work for me."

That about sums it up...

1. She didn't listen to the speech.

We're getting out before 2012.

[Connie_Corleone]

2. She doesn't believe it.

[tridim]

3. That's her problem.

I understand what she was saying, and it's fine that she did. Now she needs to do her job and make certain that Obama sticks to his goal of getting out.

4. I'll say. What the hell was she talking about?

She thought we were going to start training the Afghan army in 2011? Where the fuck did that come from?

It's not like this is a hideously complex plan. Go in. Eliminate enemy strongholds. Demand accountability from the Afghan government. Stabilize as much as possible. Get out. Home in two years. As the alternatives go, it's not a bad one.

5. No, it's a complex, hideous plan

1. Go in. Like "out of the frying pan, into the fire"
2. Eliminate enemy strongholds :rofl: :rofl: yea, the same ones Alexander the Great was working on.
3. Demand accountabil :rofl: :rofl: I can't even finish the word, I'm laughing so hard. Bart Simpson has more accountability.
4. Stabilize as much as possible. Here's how much is possible: 0
5. Get out. Now that's the most reasonable part of the plan.

6. Well thank you for your assessment, general.

If you seriously think that Alexander the Great has anything to do with it, good for you, and take the pills they gave you.

7. You're welcome
