including 9 children -- Graham's response would be, "Well, sh*t happens. Onward."

So what should we do, Lindsey?

GRAHAM: My recommendation to the public is, listen to General Allen, who comes back in two weeks. The surge of forces has really put the Taliban on the defensive. The Afghan army is better trained and better equipped than ever. The goal is to withdraw our forces by 2014, put Afghans in the lead, and I hope a strategic partnership agreement, George, between the United States and Afghanistan will stop the narrative we're leaving, that there will be a follow-on force post-2014 with air bases and special forces units to make sure the Taliban never come back, and at NATO we'll stay past 2014.

We can win this thing. We can get it right.

So, let's stay at least another two years, kill a bunch more people, and then -- we win!

Total madness.
