I don’t agree with GOP party chair Michael Steele’s assertion about Afghanistan being Obama’s war, I do agree that it is a war of choice. It’s becoming increasingly obvious that it’s an unwinable war. We have very little to gain and much to lose in Afghanistan.

Former Democratic party chair Ed Rendell called Steele “the gift that keeps on giving” for all his past misstatement. It’s ironic that for all the repeated gaffes by Steele, it’s his truthful comment about the the war being unwinable that starts howling on the right for his resignation.
