CBS co'respondent tears up Obama Afghan strategy

I don't know how she got away with this other than she said it very nicely and the look on the interviewers face said he was either not listening or he didn't understand what she was saying. We are in the clutches of an imbecile and he is going to destroy this country.

Go directly to the 5:35 mark. She doesn't go on for the entire 15 minutes. maybe somewhere in the 7-9 mark. Then shut it off cause that old smelly sock, Ralph Nader comes on pushing his book.

So, basically it's either go all in and in essence take over the country or pull out.

We've known those to be our only true options for a while.

I watched her on Charlie Rose, and I was fairly impressed. She demonstrated depth and breadth of knowledge on the issues in Afghanistan. She had a simple. straight forward, workable solution to the taliban---kill as many of them as you can, as quickly as you can. Hardly rocket surgery, but still quite surprising for a CBS corespondent.

No. her pertinent remarks start at 5:35 and she only goes on for a couple minutes. The rest is taken up by old ralph nader.

She spoke for quite a while one Charlie Rose (can't believe PBS aired it). I guess actually being on the ground in that area teaches some hard lessons....
