Ughhh

To reiterate a previous post...I'm not really sure McCain's idea to "surge" in Afghanistan is a good one.

I understand the theory - apply lessons of Iraq to Afghanistan. But is our goal (and should our goal in Afghanistan) be to bring about Democracy or some semblance of it? And Afghanistan is a much different country than Iraq - not important from a geopolitical standpoint and doesn't have a particularly educated populace.

Plus - is AQ even in Afghanistan?
