During a dinner hosted by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for Afghan President Hamid Karzai in May, Gates reminded the group that he still feels guilty for his role in the first President Bush’s decision to pull out of Afghanistan after the Soviet withdrawal in 1989, according to Bob Woodward’s new book, “Obama’s Wars.”
And to express his commitment to not letting down the country again, he emphasized:
“We’re not leaving Afghanistan prematurely,” Gates finally said. “In fact, we’re not ever leaving at all."
Either paid provocateurs, or some really lost, pathetically clueless people.

I'm not surprised there is still such a divide. It kind of shocks me that our own government is divided over it though. You would think we would want to project an image of unity, and that has to start at the top.
