This review is now complete. And as Commander-in-Chief, I have
determined that it is in our vital national interest to send an
additional 30,000 U.S. troops to Afghanistan. *After 18 months, our
troops will begin to come home. These are the resources that we need
to seize the initiative, while building the Afghan capacity that can
allow for a responsible transition of our forces out of Afghanistan.
---

30K troops for 18 months won't pacify Afghanistan. The hard deadline
for withdrawal gives the Taliban and al Qaeda a definite time period
that they can reach by simply continuing to exist. And the Afghan army
and police won't be magicked up in 18 months.

---
I am convinced that our security is at stake in Afghanistan and
Pakistan. This is the epicenter of the violent extremism practiced by
al Qaeda. It is from here that we were attacked on 9/11, and it is
from here that new attacks are being plotted as I speak. This is no
idle danger; no hypothetical threat. In the last few months alone, we
have apprehended extremists within our borders who were sent here from
the border region of Afghanistan and Pakistan to commit new acts of
terror.

This danger will only grow if the region slides backwards, and al
Qaeda can operate with impunity. We must keep the pressure on al
Qaeda, and to do that, we must increase the stability and capacity of
our partners in the region.
---

So what happens when, in 18 months, there's no viable Afghan army or
police force? Will he leave as promised anyway? If he does, aren't
exactly the same risks to US security that he mentions still there?

---
Our overarching goal remains the same: to disrupt, dismantle, and
defeat al Qaeda in Afghanistan and Pakistan, and to prevent its
capacity to threaten America and our allies in the future.

To meet that goal, we will pursue the following objectives within
Afghanistan. We must deny al Qaeda a safe-haven. We must reverse the
Taliban’s momentum and deny it the ability to overthrow the
government. And we must strengthen the capacity of Afghanistan’s
Security Forces and government, so that they can take lead
responsibility for Afghanistan’s future.
---

Note focus on al Qaeda rather than Taliban.

Well, he didn't say Muslims, did he? So "Taliban" are radical Muslims
that are proselytizing 7th century Islamic tribal laws at the point of
a gun, and not just people that worship God?

Does the medical community need the opium to make morphine (a
potential legitimate source of income), how do you prevent drugs being
exchanged for ammo and guns to the "Taliban", and how do you get rid
of poverty so the region does not turn into either radical Islam or
communism?

And if you answer these questions, you will understand what the money
is for?

and or web site will cooperate to pursue any legal remedies.

c) The views expressed by the author or website may or may not contain
factual information, due to the use of sarcasm or parody. The views
may or may not be complete, either by design, to pre-empt being called
a liar even if telling the truth, or by error due to typographical,
grammar, or other technical communication problems not realized or

information, or with the intention of being used for entertainment
purposes only, and not as a definitive judgment on the actions,
character, or reputation of an organization, individual, or groups of
individuals, with the intent of communicating with a limited group of
people, and not the general public, however no distribution
restrictions apply for fair use purposes described by the US Copyright
Office, if no other restrictions are present or communicated, with all
commercial proceeds associated with the distribution of the content to
remain the sole possession of the original author.

d) Any reference to copyrighted material is done in the spirit of fair
use, to illustrate the context of a discussion regarding public events
for reference purposes that adds to the conversation, for which that
discussion constitutes a new and separate piece of intellectual
property, for which the referenced copyrighted material can not convey
by itself, and that the author reserves the right to retain any
profits from the newly created intellectual property. This term also
serves to promote the referenced copyrighted material, without
necessarily endorsing the material for any particular fitness, use, or
purpose, for which the purpose of fair use referral law was created
for, through inclusion of a partial, but not whole, body of works that
the copyright fair use reference applies, for which the intent of all
terms of this disclaimer apply to that reference of a copyrighted
work.

e) Any humor if used, is not intended to offend people, and may be
designed to apply the principals of peer pressure through reverse
examination to accomplish the communication of principals or ideas
that consist of traditional or proposed social values that are proven
to advance the common good, and are not meant to discredit, disparage
or demean any person or entities in any professional or personal
manner, by attempting to share through the eyes or opinion of the
author, for which it is expected that you read at your own risk, with
no liability held to the author or any third parties who may store,
transfer, or forward this message to others, in the traditions of free
speech, fair use, and to play a positive role in a society that
believes that graphically depicting male homosexuals having sex, and
other unusual sex acts is considered free speech or that the use of
abortion to limit Negroes, Latinos, and other races from "spreading
the wealth around" as a "matter of privacy" (which the author does not
condone).

f) The use of humor is a known ingredient in providing teachable
moments, and to validate and even demonstrate artistic expressions
that are not shared by others, as demonstrated by many valuable
scientific observations that were scoffed at in the past, yet proven
to be quite valid decades later, upon which the humor used in all
electronic communications by the author are based, in the principals
and traditions of free speech and pursuit of happiness, and may not be
a representation of others, including God.

g) It is the opinion of the author that you respect people when you
consider their views, by reflecting their thoughts or actions against
your own, which may include use of language that conveys an emotional
depth that is to be imagined, but not enacted through use of language
that accurately, or inaccurately describes the situation,
circumstance, or idea, which does not imply that any action occur
other than the consideration of the thought, for which beyond the
author has no control, or liability for the action of the reader as
presented in all terms of this disclaimer, and may simply be the
venting of emotions with the intent of no consequence by the author to
an audience the author assumes will understand the message and intent,
and wishes to hear those views.

h) Since all intellectual property, discussions and other
communications this disclaimer applies to, either in written, or
electronic form, subscribe to the terms described in paragraph (e) and
(g) of this disclaimer, under no circumstances are any communications
meant to violate the terms of any electronic harassment laws which
include the word “harm”, for which the author understands to be
limited to the definition of physical harm (not self inflicted mental
harm) that requires immediate medical attention based solely or in
part by the communications of the author, regardless of whether the
author chooses to remain anonymous or not.

i) It is the intention and opinion of the author that History is full
of individuals that are not harmed by criticism, and in fact such
criticism can motivate and inspire them to prove their critics wrong.
Based on this historical evidence, any alleged mental harm amounts to
self inflicted injury not treatable by either medical or other
professionals (despite the fact that many people live from the profits
of lies through gradual illusion, without judicial interference), for
which the author has no control over the mental development of any
potential reader prior to the discovery or reading of the material for
which this disclaimer applies, as evident by the necessity that speech
is to be protected by law as determined by the founders of the United
States of America, who, in the opinion of the author, wrote the legal
framework, which was created by God, not slaves.

j) Additional use of automated anonymous page use tracking computer
scripts (web page programs) or advertisements may be licensed by
www.google.com, for bandwidth verification, or determination of
potential advertisement opportunities subject to all other terms
described in this disclaimer. The author is not responsible for
distributions of this work, which may be posted in public forums, and
archived by www.google.com which may then create comments from people
who hide their true identities by using false email credentials, who
will then be violating terms of service regarding accessing computer
systems by directly or indirectly accessing computer systems through
hacking (hiding their requested email address or other forms of
requested identification) which should not be archived for public
display by www.google.com in order to fight acts of criminal behavior
ranging from acts of nuisance, to lethal forms of terrorism, for which
the author does not intend to encourage, and to remind it is a civic
duty to all web masters to remove from public view such illegal
postings by hackers, and ban their use.

k) Advertisements that may appear are not necessarily endorsed by the
author, either by admission, or by silence, nor are any electronic
links that may transport the reader to other web pages, sites, or
computers, and such links that may be provided for all or any of the
following known or unknown purposes, but not limited to,
informational, educational, and for the purpose of giving copy right
credit referral information under the terms outlined in the conditions
applied to the term "fair use" regarding conversations and print under
US Copy Right Law, and for which the author assumes no liability for
any particular use, fitness, or legality there of, any link, current,
past, or future, which the reader should use at their sole risk, with
no liability to the author, or any other party that may store,
transmit, or otherwise facilitate use of the material for which this
disclaimer applies.

l) It is the opinion of the author that effective 1 December, 2009,
the proposed regulations from the FTC violate the first and fifth
amendments of the United States Constitution, by infringing through
economic affliction the burden without compensation all financial
details concerning the communications of both free enterprise and
opinion, and other civil rights such as "punishment must be fair" and
not at the "discretion" of public officials, or that advertisers are
assumed to be guilty of deception when United States law provides that
you are innocent before being proven guilty, and are in fact
demonstrations that there are current members of Congress that neither
understand the spirit of the law our founding fathers made for the
United States of America, or understand how they work in the opinion
of the author, as of October 10th, 2009, especially in light of
anticipated, and hopefully defeated, legislative taxes relating to
energy use and the burden of publishers and advertisers to comply with
the law and manage the environment, and in light that there are
various consumer protection agencies, including the Better Business
Bureau, which has free consumer information which preclude the use and
need for excessive government regulation that burdens business with
obstacles it may sense that it can not overcome without inflicting
harm on the business plan or survival ability of the business to
provide advertised, goods and or services.

m) Although the content provided meets or exceeds those new
requirements to the knowledge of the author, and modifications to
version 1.3 or 1.4 of this disclaimer is a result of the opinion of
the author that “blogging” is another definition for a potentially
infinite number or forms of electronic communication, as such the
author will retroactively apply this version, 1.6 to all forms of
previous communications, when and wherever possible, as time allows,
in order to properly convey the intention of the author and to
demonstrate an enthusiasm to comply with the law, and not
enthusiastically pursue getting high on cocaine as often as possible
as Barrack Hussein Obama has admitted in his book (paraphrase,
synopsis), according to (mmm, mmm, mmm (sonic emphasis)) Rush Hudson
Limbaugh, (mmm mmm mmm (sonic emphasis)).

n) Use of this disclaimer for either personal or professional use is
permitted with no restrictions. These restrictions or disclaimers do
not prohibit the author from pursuing or communicating in a truthful
manner, or guarantee that the audience will understand all things as
intended, and, or result in being called incoherent, or even a Chicken
Chaser!

o) This disclaimer is meant to establish the intent of the author who
may participate in message forums, or create other written or
electronic forms of communication to comply with current law, and may
be revoked without prior notice, due to circumstances beyond the
author's control, changes in the law, or for any of the purposes,
terms, or conditions that may be in effect or described by this
disclaimer, or to changes in this disclaimer that the author may
clarify in a revised version of this disclaimer.

p) This disclaimer is attached to this message, and retroactively
applies to all previous forms of communication by the author, and is
done so because there is no recognized central suppository of a public
disclaimer recognized by the Government of the United States to the
author, and as such, the legal imperative of the author is to apply
this disclaimer to all manner of correspondence as the author seems
fit or prudent, so that no misunderstandings occur, or to comply with
past, current or future revisions of the law, due to any of, but not
limited to, any or all of the terms, partial terms, or combination of
terms, of this disclaimer, which is derived from the freedom of
speech, for it appears to the author that the zeal of lawmakers to
take away free speech outweigh the providence of attaching this
disclaimer to all correspondence for which this applies, and any
inconvenience for which this presents, is the result of simply
complying with the law, and not to inconvenience the reader.

I'm shocked that you regard President Obama, the Democratic house, and
the Democratic Senate as being in the pockets of defense contractors,
and that they would send America's sons to their deaths in Afghanistan
in order to increase defense industry profits.

It sounds like you should work for their defeat. Will you pledge to
work with me to vote them out of office? We must join hands across
party aisles to work on projects that all agree upon.
