Barbara Boxer – there’s less than 100 al Qaeda forces in Afghanistan

boxerCalifornia Senator Barbara Boxer, a Democrat who is up for re-election in 2010, issued her statement about Obama’s “Afghanistan” speech last night. Apparently, she knows something we don’t. There’s less than 100 al Qaeda terrorists in that country and “roughly” 20,000 “Tollybahn” err Taliban members (San Francisco Chronicle):

“I support the President’s mission and exit strategy for Afghanistan, but I do not support adding more troops because there are now 200,000 American, NATO and Afghan forces fighting roughly 20,000 Taliban and less than 100 al Qaeda.”

Boxer of course aside being one of those global warming/climate change nut jobs also was one of few Democrats who voted against a resolution giving President Bush the authority to use military force against Iraq in 2002.
