People dislike the Afghan war more than ever, according to a new USA Today/Gallup poll; 42 percent of Americans now think invading that country was a mistake.

For some reason, the paper's front page write-up of the poll (3/17/09) quotes two experts: John Nagl of the Center for a New American Security and Thomas Donnelly of the American Enterprise Institute. Both of them support sending additional troops to Afghanistan. USA Today is showing, once again, that it's very difficult for them to entertain debate over the Afghanistan war in their news pages.
