Don't betray us, Petraeus!

News reports today indicate that after giving support for our Afghanistan policy before the Senate, General David Petraeus fainted. As well he might. For those who hold that gestures and tics reveal when a person is lying, this would be more than enough proof.

Another report indicates that the intelligence service of our "ally" Pakistan has been propping up the Taliban in Afghanistan. Karzai is giving up on us.

It is high time that we got out of that country, and Iraq as well.
