Good morning, Mike

Maybe that's why it's called an op-ed page... plenty of room for Jonathan's columns and LTEs like yours. Everyone should be welcome at the table.

Mr. Aydelott, thanks for your letter, but if we wanted to read Democrat talking points regarding excuses for the debacle in Afghanistan, we could just read Rel’s letter, or pretty much any of the lamestream media attempting to provide cover for treasonous Biden. Your use of revisionist pretzel logic Democrat talking points undermines your credibility. And if Rel were commenting on your letter, he’d probably ask for links to your supposedly indisputable facts. Fortunately, I already know you don’t have any.

Democrats were pushing Bush to go into Iraq and voted for it along with Joe Biden. Biden didn’t want to kill Osama when we had the chance. Biden's Afghanistan withdrawal plan was a disaster. Trump had already drawn troops down to 2,500 and there had been no US deaths in the past 18 months. If Bidden had listened to his intelligence and military advisors he could have proceeded with Trump’s withdrawal plans and avoided a disaster and unnecessary deaths of US citizens as soldiers.
