We let them regroup


Tammy Bruce called it for today's Thinkum

I agree with her. Emphasis in original.

"People wonder why we're having trouble in Iraq and Afghanistan. It has nothing to do with our military being 'stretched too thin' or the enemy being supermen, or America being distracted from Afghanistan by Iraq. We can chew gum and walk at the same time, thank you very much. There is an even more ominous reason why savages like the Taliban can regroup--it's because we and our allies let them.

"The truth of the matter is, as the president became more affected by worldwide leftist rhetoric, and became obsessed with fighting this war as politically correct as possible, we stopped fighting an offensive war, and our allies have followed our lead. Until the other day, that is. Proving they know Taliban leadership operates and plots and plans with impunity in their country, with great fanfare Pakistan finally swept into the "lawless" tribal area of Quetta and arrested various Taliban cavemen, including one of Mullah Omar's inner circle, and Taliban leader."

I still think the Bush Administration blew it and we will be picking up the pieces for years. We could have done it, but we were guilted into pulling the punch.

That's the failure.
