Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em
I probably shouldn't post this because then the Taliban will know how stupid our Minister of Defence is, but, well - I don't really care what the Taliban thinks, so:
Waning support for the mission in Afghanistan is a weapon in the hands of the Taliban, said Defence Minister Peter MacKay during a stop in Edmonton yesterday."The Taliban are very intelligent - they read newspapers, they go on the Internet.
"When they see Canadian resolve weaken, that's when they up their effort," MacKay said in a speech at the Mayfield Inn and Suites.
Okay. SooeySays, "No, it isn't". And, "What Canadian resolve?"
"Resolve", Mr. Minister, is an American word that is used by the President of the United States to describe what Americans need for the War in Iraq.
This is Canada, Mr. Minister. And we're in Afghanistan. Sooey's advice is to pick a new word to describe whatever you think it is that is weakening in Canadians such that it causes the Taliban to up its effort.
Or maybe just shut up.
