Taxi To The Darkside is not just a documentary title, it's an apt description of our involvement in Afghanistan and Iraq. The torture, murders, renditions, Abu Grahaib, Guantanimo, and the endless insanity of how the occupations were executed cost us much more than 14 trillion dollars. Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld encouraged and even authorized most of it. They exchanged our credibility and moral high-ground on human rights for war crimes.

The shame is not in how we exited either country. That Republican construct is just misdirection.

Thanks for the facts, Thom.
