With respect to Obama's 60 Minutes interview - How many god damn years have we been hearing "We know where they are and how to get them"... I don't know about the president, but I'm done taking the bait.

Look at Tora Bora. We knew where bin Laden was. We knew how to get him. We didn't. The latest speculation is that Bush/Cheney needed him free to keep the fear up. I don't know if that is true, and probably never will, but my opinion of them is low enough to believe it.
Now, it's more of the same. We know where the "terrorists" are. We know how to get them. And every time we get one of them a few dozen noncombatants are killed in the blast.

a few dozen new combatants vow to chase their invaders out of their country.
We need real change, and sooner than later.

6. Things are changing--they are getting worse |

I believe we're going to lose this one.
And I think that's going to be good for us.
Too bad so many people are going to die in the process.
