You know, every since I started this blog I'd occasional make reference to the fact that things weren't going well in Afghanistan, which was also of course some of the reason I couldn't hop on board Thomas Friedman's Grand Iraq Crusade. Inevitably, I'd be chastized for my American hating ways by some right winger who was convinced that the machinery to pave the streets with gold was just about to arrive. It's impossible to argue that Afghanistan isn't a officially a total disaster now. I guess the only consolation is that few bother to try anymore.
