are people criticizing the things Powell has been saying in support of what the Military has decided to be -- the criticism phrased as if HE were actually MAKING THE DECISIONS.

Now, maybe I honestly don't know what the Secretary of State does... but I didn't think he was calling the shots over in Afganistan. So why is everyone blaming him for the fact that we haven't won the war yet?

As a matter of fact, why are these idiots even thinking we should have won by now? I mean... maybe THEY've been playing too many video games...
