Why we are in Afghanistan.

In words that could get one fired from our “Public Broadcaster,” Rick Mercer puts together a response to a whining Professor of Women’s Studies whose Christmas was ruined by the CBC showing a “poor sod” soldier.

Personally, I would have thought that as a professor of women’s studies you would be somewhat supportive of the notion of a NATO presence in Afghanistan. After all, it is the NATO force that is keeping the Taliban from power. In case you missed it Noreen, the Taliban was a regime that systematically de-peopled women to the point where they had no human rights whatsoever. This was a country where until very recently it was illegal for a child to fly a kite or for a little girl to receive any education.

I still can’t figure out how Jack! and other left wing nutbars who “fight” for minority rights could even think of withdrawing from Afghanistan.

By the way, Pray for Our Troops!
