How Can They Miss Us When We Won't Leave?

So Obama's pulling out the troops from Afgha... no, wait, he said he's pulling the 33,000 additional surge forces he ordered there in December 2009 home within 15 months. He's NOT pulling out the 70,000 troops that were there before that. So the surge is over, but we're still there? Interesting. And that also conflicts with the other side, Gates and Petraeus, who wanted to just pull out support troops but leave the larger number there to try and beat back Taliban gains. But nobody on either side is clearly telling us the point of spending lives and billions of dollars on a war they seem to be hinting we can't win. (CNN)
