"The criticisms of Karzai, I think, have been misplaced... He's been elected leader of that country...I have seen no indication that he's corrupt and I think the way he's been savaged... He's the president of that country. We want him to succeed."Newshounds
I can't even come up with a witty way of saying batshit crazy......
Well, to be fair, it would be really great if Karzai were the perfect Boy Scout, and had the diplomatic skills and absolute fairness to pull disparate factions together and inspire them to craft a better future for Iraq. So, yeah: "We want him to succeed."

Heh....you go to war with the reality you have, not the reality you wish you had?
ReplyDeleteYeah, sump'm like that... you know, easy, cheap, we'll be hailed as lberators...?
