    Wasn’t what he was saying last week.

      @george-k said in Biden "Forcefully" defends Afghan withdrawal:

      George Stephanopolis interviewed Biden.

      "There's no way we could have gotten out without chaos," said POTUS.

      He seemed very angry.

      He is so inept on this topic. Again, his July 8th comments were crystal clear and now clearly the complete opposite of what happened.

      How else could this have been handled? Umm, waiting until you’ve evacuated all of our afghan partners (translators etc) and US assets before dismantling our military force over there?

          We have the freedom to choose our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences.
          Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on.

            Yes. And the RWEC is calling for the release of the full, unedited, video of the interview.

            Stephanopoulos responds that they're releasing the full transcript.

            Not good enough, says Hewitt. Release the Kraken full video.

            The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

              He's had work done, but it doesn't look terrible, all things considered. After all, he's like 100 years old.

              Education is extremely important.

                Here is the interview... it's pretty bad. He's going to have to pick which lie he's going to stick to. If he knows.

                        What does everyone think about the release of Mullah Baradar under Trump, co founder of the Taliban, and now apparently in charge?

                        https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/aug/15/talibans-abdul-ghani-baradar-is-undisputed-victor-of-a-20-year-war

                        The Trump administration had struck a deal with this guy where he agreed to make the Taliban more civil and less terroristic. In spite of the cluster fuck Biden has caused, this seems to be working, as the Taliban leadership held a press conference vowing to not seek retribution, to allow women more civil rights, including the right to attend school. In fact, if they follow through on all the things they said, Afghanistan could end up less like Iran and more like Saudi Arabia, relatively peaceful but a strict Islamic state.

                        As Quirt would undoubtedly say, if not spell, colour me skeptical.

                                  @mik She is a truly awful human being.

                                  Have you heard the joke about how liberals, when their children act up, threaten them that if they don't shape up and behave, Daddy will send Ann Coulter around to visit them in the night?

                                      Have you heard the joke about how liberals, when their children act up, threaten them that if they don't shape up and behave, Daddy will send Ann Coulter around to visit them in the night?

                                      As tactics go, this is said to have a high success rate.

                                      She is a truly awful human being.

                                      I have always thought of her as a hag. Her dislike of Trump and calling him out on this notwithstanding, I still consider her a hag.

                                        She should marry Piers Morgan.

                                        I was only joking

                                          Is there a British term for two twats?

                                          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
