Ken Buck's mouth tells on him again.
In last night's debate Bennet and Buck were asked how they thought we should end the war in Afghanistan. It was a bit shocking when Buck asserted that "It's a fundamental mistake to assume that people as backward as the Afghans are going to be able to build an industrialized nation."

"Backward." This from the same guy who insists that his ill treatment of Hispanics has nothing to do with racism.

4. So someone should ask him
if he believes in "Nation Building"?

We have no business in Afghanastan after 10 years it's time to call it a day. How can we try to build another country when our own home is in shambles?
