Here, from the excellent defense site Global Security.org, is the list of the troops we have in or around Afghanistan. Read my post on the subject from Friday. Notice the number of units with "special" in their titles. Then notice the numbers - men, ships, planes - involved in the units.
Compare this with the half-million men and 100,000 vehicles sent to the Persian Gulf ten years ago - that we couldn't send now if we tried. Then talk about the Clinton Military.
More to come.
