Under Pressure, Mitt Romney Fleshes Out Plan For Afghanistan


I dunno, maybe he's got a good idea here.

In an interview to be aired tomorrow, Romney lays out his plan for ending the war in Afghanistan.

First, we run down the price and buy it cheap.

Then, we load it up with debt, buy off upper management to early retirement or golden parachutes, fire middle management, and replace the workers with Chinese prison labor.

After that, we show losses and sell it off to a Russian bank.

Problem solved, Afghanistan screwed.

and take it home. If anyone is on the fence this late in the game, the Foreign experience is a GAME CHANGER, especially following 9/11. Don't harp on fear, just steady strong competence. Obama has it.
