I'm not about to toot my own horn, but check out this NY Times article that ran today:

And I call your attention to the crux of the argument:
"Under the strategy described by General McChrystal and other commanders in recent weeks, the overriding goal of American and NATO forces would not be so much to kill Taliban insurgents as to make ordinary Afghans feel secure, and thus isolate the insurgents. That means using force less and focusing on economic development and good governance. "
BOOYAH BITCHES! WHO CALLED IT?! ME. HAIL TO THE FUCKING KING BABY!
Yeah. I just parroted four years of real experts' advice to the White House. But it still feels good.
Humbly prostrated,
Matt
