From the above article, "Republican John McCain said Tuesday he knows "how to win wars" and that the strategy of increasing troop levels in Iraq should also be applied to Afghanistan."

Really John? Being held POW gives you the experience and know-how to win a war? Why did we go to Iraq? Why did we not surge Afg.? Why did you vote to fund the illegal Iraq war?

Vote King George III, vote John McCain!

You second recent War President.

I spent 22 years in the US Army. At least I have "boots on the ground" experience. But I''m not ******* enough to claim I know how to win either of the two wars we''re in now. They''ve been FUBAR from the beginning.

Wish he would have clued the president in, he lost two already & is idiot enough to want another-I remember Nixon patting his pocket-he had the win in Nam in the bag-PRIOR TO HIS ELECTION!Of course the loss worked out fine-the more I see of Bush,the more I like Nixon!!

This shows you just the direction this man is dying to take this country. Deeper into a war we will never win. Obama is a slam dunk in this election.

"KABUL, Afghanistan - Afghan police say U.S. troops have pulled out of a remote base where militants killed nine American soldiers earlier this week."

It''s important for Bush to cut and run from an area that can produce such casualties this election year. He has to help out Mr. 894 out of 899.

Are you kidding? He doesn''t know how to RUN it!

He''s a "computer illiterate". Just the sort of fellow to run our 21st century wars.
