Obama and Afghanistan

Fox News: Reports that the Statement made by Senator Obama that troops sent to Afghanistan did not have the full kit has come under question from the Defense Department in the USA. Afghanistan has become the shadow War; Iraq has become political football between the Republicans and the Democrats. The Democrats dare not suggest pull out of Afghanistan. It can be argued that from a certain perspective that Afghanistan is a just war while Iraq is seen by those on the left as an unjust war, a war of choice.

McCain and the New York Times

New York Times: Interesting article by they LIBERAL NYT on its fight with Senator John McCain. On the whole very fair article, am somewhat surprised. I guess if you have shot your shelf in the foot and your in a hole, time to retreat and act as if you are the paper of record for the United State not an arm of the Democratic Party. This won’t last long. McCain 1 - 0 NYT.
