This the an eight-year war. We have been longer there we have been in World War I and World War II. You know what? This might not be the smartest thing that we have ever done.

But it is not unreasonable to assume in that category at all, that after eight years any country should reassess where it is.

We ought to look at trying to fight a smart war.

This is an eight-year war. We've been there longer than we've been WORLD WAR I and World War II.

I would point out -- and maybe somebody does -- I don't know what the recommendation of the Secretary of Defense is; I don't know what the recommendation of the Joint Chiefs are.

Well, I don't know what makes sense. I know what we've been doing for the last eight years is not working very well.

But it is not unreasonable to assume -- and I'm not casual at all -- that after eight years, any country should reassess the way it is.

I think that anybody would -- anybody that does math would say that that's pretty good. I think, under the administration of George W. Bush, we lost more jobs than probably any president in modern American history.

Well, you can call it whatever you want. I don't care what they call it, but they're going to have to do something to humanely deal with these people who -- you know, whose jobs have been lost and been lost for a long period of time.

Well, look it, if unemployment stay this high, they're going to have to do something. They are going to have to extend unemployment compensation benefits.

But let me go further. The chief economist of Goldman Sachs said the stimulus is probably worth about 3 percent of GDP.

I'm sure there is nothing that would stimulate the Republican base like seeing people who are out of work as for no fault of their own not have this.

There are a lot of people on -- on -- on that can't control their emotions. And for -- if it does -- if something does happen, it's -- it's going to be -- the consequences of this would be pretty dramatic.

Well, the difference is that of course, as we now know there was a vast right wing conspiracy. You had tobacco company is paying people to publish stuff in 'The New Republic.' I mean, we've documented that. The difference now is it's not a…

I think people understand that he's been in office for what, seven months or so.

I think it is reasonable after seven and a half years to evaluate our policy in Afghanistan.
