Isn't that always the case - the educated, professional, connected, monied folks always make the exodus. I really feel badly for the Afghans left behind - they're going to have to deal with the coming shit storm just like the ARVNs, the Yards, and Khmere did. Sad, really really sad.

Oh, but wait! There's hope - Kerry's setting up talks with Taliban. Whew - I'm relieved. And I thought we were going to have another genocide crisis on our hands.
