Uh Oh
Top U.S. commander in
Afghanistan, Gen. David Petraeus, was frustrated by the Afghan president's blunt
call for a reduced military footprint in the country —

"President
Bush is everywhere talking about his book and he's being very candid. In one
interview, he said that he used to do stupid things while he was drunk. But
think about it, who among us hasn't had a couple of drinks and invaded Iraq?"

"China is
expected to overtake the U.S. as the world's biggest economy in the next two
years. Americans couldn't believe it. 'That hasn't happened already?'"

"Well,
some good news today from President Obama. You know how he's been trying for two
years to shut down Guantanamo Bay. Well, they finally found a place to put the
