If you're referring to the Afghanistan pull-out, I don't think it's a
display of weakness to realize you're in a war you aren't prepared to win.
And I support the pull-out. I just wish it had been handled better.

I don't think anyone really doubts our might: we have the numbers. But our
ability to commit, thankfully, has demonstrably been lacking for several
decades.
