In case you weren't paying any attention, your president just lost the war in Afghanistan.


You have to go to Germany to find this story.  According to the BERLIN (AP) — Afghan President Hamid Karzai has told a German newspaper that Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar could run for president in elections next year.

Karzai’s government has agreed the Taliban can open an office in Qatar if the group breaks all ties with al Qaeda and renounces terrorism. Karzai was in Qatar Sunday to discuss the issue.

Karzai said in an interview published Tuesday by the German daily Sueddeutsche Zeitung that authorities have “sporadic contacts” with the Taliban. He said that the Afghan constitution is valid for all Afghans and “the Taliban also should benefit from it.”

Asked whether Mullah Omar should seek the presidency, Karzai was quoted as saying: “He can become a candidate for the presidency and give Afghans the opportunity to vote for or against him.”

Editor’s notes:  Bush won the war in Iraq and killed 40,000 terrorists in the process.  Obama wasted the lives of 1500 of our soldiers in Afghanistan and proof of that is found in our featured story.  You can say all the negative things you want about Karzai,  but the man is trying to figure out how to survive once Obama turns tail and leaves him behind.   What a disgrace we are as a nation and it is all on the Democrat anarchists who are currently running this government.
