Frist urges surrendering to the TALIBAN

Bill Frist has just put the final stake in the heart of they myth of Republican toughness on national security.

Interesting article on what amounts to Republican's talking out of "both sides of their mouth". Democrats are accused on "cut and run" (is it really cut and run after 5 years) in their approach to Iraq, but when it comes to the Taliban, an organization proven to have strong links to Al Qaeda, their recommendation from leadership is "integration" with the current Afghan government. How is that consistent with any policy? Republican leadership clearly have no clue on how to proceed.
