For the last five years Americans have been subjected to a peculiar brand of liberal Democrat "logic" regarding the war on terror. I'm not referring to the moonbat segment of the party, for whom any military action is evidence of our moral decadence. I'm talking about liberals who espouse the idea that war in Afghanistan was good, but war in Iraq was bad.

After 9/11, these liberals recognized the necessity of responding to the worst domestic attack in American history. Invading Afghanistan was OK because al Qaeda used the country as a training camp with the blessings of the Taliban. Apparently for these liberals, all would have been right if our military action had been confined to that theater.

So here's the question: imagine for a moment that in the course of our fighting in Afghanistan, Osama bin Laden had been killed or captured. Would the war on terror have been over?
