Obama Weighs Options In Afghanistan
Pressure is mounting on President Obama to make a decision on the future of Afghanistan.
Here are the options currently being considered:
Not only learn the lessons of Vietnam, but apply them as well
Visit; act fascinated by their rugs
Remove every American soldier; see if fighting continues
Legalize gambling, as that's worked well domestically
Thunderdome-style battle to the death between Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal and Afghanistan Taliban leader Mullah Omar
Call the Taliban pretending to be the Prophet Muhammad and tell them to stop ambushing American soldiers
Announce you're raising troop levels by 15,000, then pull everybody out, then come back with a half million soldiers, in the process convincing al-Qaeda that you're loco and not to be messed with
Arm and finance a group of religious fighters
Back the murderous drug-dealing warlord with the most government officials in his pocket
