(3,386 posts)I did not agree with the pull from Afghanistan as it was planned, or not appropriately planned, it was obvious what was going to happen, and it happened.
Did we inherit that horrendous war? Yes we did, but that does not mean we need to leave without properly making sure everything is done to avoid the Taliban from taking over. Not only that, but knowing how republicans think, and we are starting to see it now, they will take on this, run with it, taking advantage that people are ignorant enough to forget this is the inheritance that Bush/Cheney left behind, but lets also not forget that Biden voted for it.
We are always eager to put the opposition's feet in the fire, and granted that they should live with their feet in the fire, but we also must be able to do the same when our side makes mistakes, and to me I think that the way it was done was a big mistake.

Halliburton/KBR was in charge of that pallet with $9 Billion in cash that just up and disappeared. Hmmmmm.......the mini-mansion and ranchette property sales out in Halliburton/KBR/Cheney country was booming before the big 2008 bust. Hmmm......
