Went to the head of our partner organisation's house. It was a good night. Well, mostly a good night until her husband asked me to give my frank opinion of George Bush. In case you hadn't figured it out, I am a bit more liberal in my ideas. So, I thought I gave a fair but negative perspective of the President. That was a bad move. Apparently, he is a huge Bush supporter. Ahem. Well, there was a bit of an awkwardness and I tried to ask him probing questions such as why he felt that way.

He said it was because Bush did things like take on the Taliban. AHHHH! You are joking. Yesterday, the International Red Cross Cresent organisation released a study saying civilian life is even worse in Afghanistan than a year ago. I had to act polite but still wanted to get my point across that in many ways the US was obligated to address the Taliban as they created the Mujahideen in the first place.
