If McCain gets elected, hopefully he learned from the past and won't continue to drag the crap over there out.

But well played John. Thank you for a reasonable response.

The current problem with 'finishing' the job over there is radical groups are ALWAYS going to be an issue. Its a way of life. They don't cry and complain about things on the internet over there, they organize and (try) to fight back whether good or bad.

Look at the incident with the lawyers in Pakistan. A bunch of guys in suits and ties rioting! Hell, a lawyer here gets a smudge on his shirt and he fires his secretary then screams at his dry cleaner to make sure the stain comes out or he's never bringing his stuff there ever again! Hell I wonder how many underpaid college kids have been screamed at by people in suits because they forgot the splenda.

Its a different way of life and selling them on "democracy" is like trying to sell a snowmaker to eskimos.

But we've gotten off track.
