They aren't out of Afghanistan, and to the extent they are they've largely relocated to Pakistan.

Devoted our resources to hunting them down, to developing Afghanistan, and to working with (instead of alienating) our allies and others to hunting them down. This wouldn't have been a complete shield either -- no such thing. But the invasion of Iraq was a great waste of resources, American lives, credibility, goodwill, and so much more -- and for what? To bring democracy to the Shiites? Big fucking deal -- look at how the Shiites in Iran just exercised their votes.

You realize we can't go into Pakistan don't you?
