I'll watch the news today, only to see if they report this victory. I'll even flip thru all the different news channels.

Beyond the news, I'd like to hear Kerry acknowledge it.

Yep, seems like the perfect opportunity for us to bolster support for Mullah Omar by electing a guy without any resolve at all. We could use a renewed and invigorated Taliban commad structure over there, right?
