I mean, after you've survived a hostile takeover by a terrorist regime, survived the stampede at the airport, and given birth in front of an audience of few hundred refugees on possibly the worst day of their lives, you've got to be a hell of a woman.

Here's to hoping her and her child go on to do great things in this country! At least they have the opportunity.

I think its pretty bad the State Department doesn't even know how many Americans were in Afghanistan to begin with.

I'm often surprised by what posts get you to chime in.

Well, Peej, you take the total stated number evacuated and you subtract the stated number of Americans evacuated, and you have the total number of Afghans evacuated.

That's assuming, of course, that no other nationalities were in the mix, which we know isn't the case.

I suppose that's one way to get US citizenship. Probably not the way she planned though.

I don’t want any Americans hurt in anyway, but as of now we have zero clue if they have or not.This is a very disturbing and disgusting time for this country the way things have unfolded……

Man when women were devastated that Hillary lost, I tried to cheer them up saying women deserved a better first woman President than one who rode on the coattails of sex offenders. Kamala Harris was not who I had in mind.

The Panjshir Valley is the HQ of the northern alliance. The taliban will pay a heavy toll if they try to move in there.
