"In a sign of the potential danger, Mullah Omar, the former Taliban supreme leader, warned Afghans to boycott the election or face attacks at polling stations, a senior Taliban official told CNN Friday.

We are sending warning to people to refrain from voting as we have planned to organize attacks with full strength on polling stations," said the message, which was read on the radio by the Taliban's former defense minister.

Voters will be responsible themselves if they come under Taliban attack."

I hope Kerry brings this up the 13th..

The poll should have a 'tied' option.

I thought the questions from the people were as good if not better than the first debate moderator (and infinitely better than the VP debate person... she completely sucked)

Well, I'm pretty sure Bush changed the mind of the woman who asked his final question about what 3 mistakes he has made as President. He didn't just neglect to answer the question, he first implied the question was "obviously" about Iraq and then said when "these people" ask a question like that of course Iraq is what "they" mean. That shocked me. The woman asked him a question, how does he know what her motives were? It's one thing to treat a question from a journalist/moderator that way, but I couldn't belive how completely dismissive he was - not simply of the question, but of that woman who asked it.

What do you mean by this? I hope you don't think this signifies failure in Afghanistan. The terrorists realize what threats freedom and democracy are and they are willing to go to extrodinary lengths to keep the afghan people under their control. The terrorists are resolved to fighting this battle and we must be resolved to winning it.

Failure? No, but it`s not good news for Bush at all, something Kerry can use against him because Bush is so proud of this election in Afghanistan, when in fact there`s havoc over there and no time for election yet.

I think we (we also have soldiers in afghan) will win the war in Iraq, and I agree on being resolved. But that`s where I think the President made the mistake of taking most of the soldiers out of afghanistan and sending them to war nr.2 before the first one was anything but finished.

[AnyonebutBush]

hmmm......some of us have open minds? your screen name is anyonebutbush, are you saying you might vote for bush?I was responding to someone saying that some people are gonna just vote for thier canidate regardless if he lost the debate and thats what having a closed mind is all about.

[AnyonebutBush]

for everyone who hasn't made up their mind, listen to my propoganda!!The debate was propaganda? Because thats what we are discussing in here.

I don't think this is really bad news. We couldn't have expected anything different. If we hold elections today, or in 3 months, or in 3 years the terrorists will do everything they can to stop them. And if we wait 3 years, they'll be content to wait 3 years.

[clemson357]

kerry reminds me of bob dole, the negative way he talks about everything. he also looks like a walking penis.

[chellek23]

:lol I'm sorry but that last comment totally cracked me up!!

[elf]

kerry won.

You may be right..I guess Iv`e been to optimistic about Afghanistan. Maybe because Iraq have gotten all the attention, or so it does seem when I watch the news anyway..

Troops weren't removed from Afghanistan to fight in Iraq. They're two completely different missions fought by different sectors of the military. The 10th Mountain Division is doing most of the fighting in the mountains of Afghanistan where the 1st Infantry Division's heavy armor would be useless. Similarly, the 10th Mountain Division would be useless in the deserts of Iraq where the Marines and the 1st ID's armor are most effective. Unfortunately, there are only so many Special Forces guys to go around which may marginally effect both engagements, but here again there are different units trained for different theaters of operation. Between the Navy and Air Force, we certainly have no shortage of air power to bring to bear in either theater.

[Dancing Ants]

there are more special forces over there than we know.

[#34->Raven]

air force and navy are looking to cut its forces.

army though, is trying to enlarge itself because of multiple engagements
