The two leading GOP candidates were asked about Afghanistan on the Sunday talk shows yesterday. Both Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum gave pretty good responses and refused to go wobbly on Afghanistan.
“Look, what’s happening right now is an example of failed leadership,” Romney told Fox News Sunday. “The president put out a specific time table for withdrawal for our troops, a time table for the end of combat operations. That is leading Mr. Karzai to take action that is self preservation in nature. The president needs to be more engaged and interacting with — not only our commanders there but also with leadership in Afghanistan.”
