Oh, and if you could send us some plans for Universal Healthcare, we'd be very thankful....

While I agree the way Afghanistan has been handled has not been good (the Shrub distracted the US from Afghanistan with all his Iraqi made-up stories and sent the bulk of the troops there instead of to where the Taliban were and still are) we should, indeed, be there. Afghanistan harboured the 9/11 terrorists and their allies and would have continued to do so if not confronted.
