The quiet half of America doesn't want to be in Afghanistan. The president's quiet approach to considering our future there doesn't help.
Liberals should come out and boldly say that we should be in Afghanistan. We should be there to protect human rights, those of children and women, those of impoverished villagers. We should be there to improve the health and welfare of all Afghanis, to improve the security for those who will appreciate the stability.
What we did wrong in Iraq was to allow Republicans to get rich from government contracts. We can do right in Afghanistan creating jobs to improve infrastructure (water, sewer, power), hospitals, housing, factories to build machinery and work clothes and security personnel to protect those functions.
By all means, we should increase the number of American Troops to support these functions and to generally improve security and stability.
The President should hold a surprise press conference in Afghanistan to deliver this message. A grand plan to stabilize and revitalize that country. It's time to be bold and push the Liberal agenda in a country that needs it so much.
