Gen. McChrystal and Sec. Janet Nepolitano

Over the past day or so I read the U.S. is sending 14,000 additional troops to Afghanistan.

The debate regarding HealthCare Reform has a central issue regarding where the money is coming from for the Reform so likewise, I would like to know where the 14,000 additional troops are coming from to be shipped to Afghanistan plus the 40,000 Gen. McChrystal has requested.

I wonder if there are any concerns from Homeland Security advisor Janet Napolitano? I wonder if she has any concerns she is discussing with the President? With most of our troops on their third and fourth tour of duty between Iraq and Afghanistan, where oh where are the additional troops going to come from? My bottom line is with so many troops already committed to Iraq, Afghanistan and the other 130 or so bases we have around the world, “Who’s watching the store?” Yikes!! Is it me? (Smile)
As always,
BB
