Pro-surrender Democrats are beginning to worry that Barack Obama won’t capitulate in Afghanistan quickly enough.

“Before I support any more troops to Afghanistan, I want to see a strategy that includes an exit plan,” said Rep. Jim McGovern, a Massachusetts liberal who at one point wanted to cut off money for the Iraq war.

Added Wisconsin Democrat Sen. Russ Feingold, another fierce war opponent: “The idea of putting the troops in without having more clarity at least gives me pause.”

Both of these people were rabidly opposed to the Iraq surge that has brought us to victory, of course. If they’d gotten their way, Iraq would now be a suburb of Iran.

You can tell what they think of our music by the places we are forced to play it in. This looks like a good spot for a livestock show. -- The Mothers of Invention were opening for Cream in April of 1968 in Chicago. The place was very large and did look like it had been used for displays of cattle and other such animals.
