U.S. Senate majority leader calls for efforts to bring Taliban into Afghan government
The Associated Press
Published: October 2, 2006

QALAT, Afghanistan

U.S. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist said Monday that the Afghan guerrilla war can never be won militarily and called for efforts to bring the Taliban and their supporters into the Afghan government.

The Tennessee Republican said he had learned from briefings that Taliban fighters were too numerous and had too much popular support to be defeated by military means.

"You need to bring them into a more transparent type of government," Frist said during a brief visit to a U.S. and Romanian military base in the southern Taliban stronghold of Qalat. "And if that's accomplished we'll be successful."

I know this will never happen, but wouldn't it be great if he lost the presidency because of all the poker player votes he lost?

j/k, no way we have near enough power in numbers for that, but hey... its nice to think about isn't it?

That is far-fetched.

However, there are many Americans from all parties that think our representatives have grossly overstepped their bounds here and infringed upon our liberties. I also know many are not happy about how this bill was passed (almost under cover of darkness).

That may lose him a not insignificant amount of votes.

He'll lose anyway because he is way too much of a right wing radical even for this country. If he somehow does I'll install that military bunker in the basement I've always wanted.

I wrote a letter to him telling him that the current bill will undoughtedly cost him a lot of votes if he did run for president and that it should be seriously considered that online poker be regulated and taxed. Im gonna write all the politicians in my area as well as I think we all should and really flood e-mail and real mail boxes with our concerns about this matter. If we do this I think it will have a huge impact in future legislation if we get it stuck in our politicians minds that THIS SUX!!!!! and we want it to change.
