Reassessing Afghanistan Cheney and Karzai are so yesterday Afghanistan's a civil war, but look what side we're backing. The side that stuffs the ballot box when its support is lacking. Unwanted, uninvited; are we a nation of Salahis? Pray we, too, don't end up with unpaid for, used Ferraris. For in our role as mercenaries, we still have not been paid. So why should Fogh Rasmussen profit from our new poppy trade? And why let NATO have first dibs on Afghan minarets When that would give Lou Dobbs more kicks than Fogh Rasmussen gets. Have we become so bored with fraud from our own politicians That Wall Street needs to set up shop in more adverse conditions, Financing Afghan warlord loans with credit default swaps, So when McChrystal gets them trained, their finest wars are between cops?
