RUSH: To Chicago, Bob, hello, and welcome to the EIB Network.CALLER: Hello, welcome (chuckles) or thank you.RUSH: Yes.CALLER: I was just wondering, Rush: If you were president, what would you be doing right now in Afghanistan? What do you think we should be doing? Do you think we should be doing more ant-insurgency or more antiterrorism, more or less troops, different troops, that sort of thing?

RUSH: Well, I’m not a commanding officer. I would listen to those who are. It’s very simple: We win; they lose.

CALLER: But did you see the interview on 60 Minutes this weekend, with the general?

RUSH: Yeah, and he said he’s only talked to the commander-in-chief one time in 70 days.

CALLER: Right. And he was talking about, you know, be more careful in our bombing and stuff and I know that’s something that’s driven you crazy when the Democrats have said that in the past, and I was just wondering what you thought about that.

RUSH: It is a dichotomy. When the cowards who are our enemy bury themselves in homes in neighborhoods with women and children wearing the burqas, it is difficult for us to go out and get the guys because we are limited by our compassion for not causing collateral damage.

CALLER: So you would just take the gloves off?

RUSH: No. I’d listen to what the generals say. But the bottom line is, what would I’d do in Afghanistan? I’d win. Here. Obama has spoken up again. It’s not hard. You know, in a war, the operating philosophy is, ‘Well, what’s the endgame? When do you get out?’ After you win! We win; they lose. Here’s Obama, at the White House, after he met with UN Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen… Did they get a new secretary-general? I thought the Secretary General was Ban Ki-moon from one of the Koreas. Anyway, here’s Obama. He said this about their… By the way, he’s ignoring Richard Cohen’s warning and Howard Fineman’s warning to stay Off TV. Obama is on TV again saying Afghanistan… Well, you listen. Here’s what he said.
