Afghanistan: The new quagmire?

The Daily Beast reported yesterday that some General thinks we need to send an additional 45,000 more U.S. troops to Afghanistan if we want to make any progress there.

This is after we've already been there for almost eight years. And what have we accomplished? The Taliban have regrouped, women and children are afraid to leave their homes, and Osama bin Laden remains on the loose. Nice job, Mr. Bush!

Will our new Commander-in-Chief please say "enough is enough"?

Sadly, I doubt it.
