Screwed

Afghanistan is beginning to look more and more like Iraq.

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) -- Insurgent activity in Afghanistan has risen fourfold this year, and militants now launch more than 600 attacks a month, a rising wave of violence that has resulted in 3,700 deaths in 2006, a bleak new report found.

Afghanistan saw about 130 insurgent attacks a month last year, said the report by the Joint Coordination and Monitoring Board, which consists of representatives from Afghanistan and the international community, including the United Nations.

The new report said insurgents were launching more than 600 attacks a month as of the end of September, up from 300 a month at the end of March this year. The violence has killed more than 3,700 people this year, it said.

It's really hard to believe Bush could have screwed things up this badly. I mean, even someone with no smarts at all should be able to average 50% on a true/false exam. Bush, on the other hand, seems to be able to get every single answer wrong.
