* Got Patience?

No..I've lost my PATIENCE! Why do we allow our government and media to continue, and continue, to play games.. play DANGEROUS games with our money, lives of our military, and lives of innocent people caught in the cross fires of war?


Before 9/11 the Bush Administration, along with Enron, had tried... unsuccessfully tried.. to deal with the Taliban concerning the pipeline from the Caspian Sea (Trans-Afghan pipeline). As we know, THAT didn't work out. 


Now THIS Administration and military leaders are playing games there too. Word is out that the commander in Afghanistan wants between 30,000 to 40,000 additional troops. If this Administration goes along with this, WILL it be described as a "surge"?...Similar to the  "surge" of additional troops sent to Iraq, which in reality was a "surge" of  TONS of MONEY given to the Sunnis...like a BRIBE? 


Additional troops will not change things at all in Afghanistan. We can KILL everything now living in that country and THEN finish the pipeline.. OR we can declare victory, leave and THEN try to make a deal with the existing government for the pipeline. In any case.. as always.... FOLLOW the MONEY....
