Two Thousand Twenty-four Did Nostrobama guess wrong? Way to go McChrystal! Looks like you'll be there forever. Pace yourself. Your troop pullout is looking more like never. Two thousand twenty-four's the date! Isn't that a bitch? That's how long you'll be involved in scratching Karzai's itch. You first went there eight years ago. God knows when Karzai started. So let no man cast assunder what fate's fickle fingers charted. Who knew the Afghan people would become so fond of you They'd want you there to celebrate your own Dien Bien Phu? Does it matter who kills whom? Your spokesmen can't agree, When does Karzai think they might? Late two thousand twenty-three. Yet Gates sounds more like Wolfowitz: "As poppy prices rise, Our Karzai Brothers costs won't be what they would be otherwise." At least if Congress says OK, it won't be them the burden's on. Happily the fates will see all those old geezers dead and gone.
