Yeah, 'cuz getting left behind in Afghanistan with the Taliban hunting you down is really no different than getting stranded on a country road with a flat tire ... don't worry ... AAA will come along eventually, don'tcha know!
Pentagon press secretary John Kirby has been making the media rounds today, and his appearances have all gone about as well as we’d expect them to.
Here they are, in no particular order. Let’s kick things off with this one:
Chris Martin ~ Pentagon spokesman John Kirby refused to say whether we are safer today than we were 20 years ago.
Not a good question to dodge.

Not a good question to dodge. But John Kirby, God bless him, is willing to try!
Moving on:
John Cooper ~ Kirby says it's okay that we left U.S. military assets and weapons behind for the Taliban because they don't "pose a threat to the United States or pose a threat to neighboring nations."

Even though those weapons have “a lethality,” no one anywhere needs to worry about the Taliban using them for lethal purposes. It’s fine!
Omri Ceren ~ Last week Kirby told reporters from podium not to worry about US leaving weapons at airport because we'd destroy them. Talking pt was echoed for days by admin.
New line is we didn't destroy weapons but it's OK bc they don't pose threat(?)
Anything to get out of the news cycle.
OK, well, even if the Taliban do want to use those weapons against Americans, it’s not like there are tons of Americans left in Afghanistan. They only number in the “low hundreds”:
Townhall.com ~ KIRBY: The number of Americans left behind in Afghanistan is in the “low hundreds.”

We did the best we could under the circumstances, OK?
RNC Research ~ Pentagon Spokesman John Kirby admits Biden’s withdrawal was a failure.
“We certainly would have liked and preferred to get more people out, if we could. But the time just wasn’t there.”

Guy Benson ~ It was an arbitrary deadline *and* we left 24 hours early by choice.
Fair point, Guy. But don’t you know? Americans get stranded all the time!
RNC Research ~ Pentagon Spokesman, today: “We have Americans that get stranded in countries all the time”
Jen Psaki, August 23: "I think it's irresponsible to say Americans are stranded. They are not."

The Biden administration is chock full of traitorous dumbf*cks.
