    So, I guess China gets a say in how we run things then.

      LOL. No, they don't. We bought things from them, they got paid. An exchange. They also bought bonds, etc. They got fair exchange and will get interest. Another exchange. We GAVE money to Afghanistan, as Foreign Aid. We should have a say in how that is used. Also an exchange. You want charity, then spend the money how I say.

        "Freedom of speech is good, we respect that, but the freedom of speech with regard to other countries is another issue," Karzai told Blitzer. I wish I knew what he was trying to say here.

          Afghanistan is going doing a Greece. "Give us all the moneys!" and then "if you criticize us then you're a nazi!". why am I making so many typo's lately?

                Seems everybody is paying Afghanistan money. Our Prime Minister (the ginger ninger) has just announced that we will be giving Afghanistan three hundred million dollars to help them adjust prior to our troop withdrawal in 2014. I wonder where that money will be spent or perhaps who's pocket. :~

                    The article[^] Whether or not Karzai is corrupt, it is not our place to tell the Afghan people what to do. I'm glad a member of our congress has been banned.

                        I never said it wasn't. I agree with you. It is our right and our place to stop aid to anyone we are giving it to.

                              That's what I was thinking. He is either being selective or he was saying we respect freedom of speech in the US, not Afghanistan.
