You're right Democrats shouldn't be goaded into doing "the right thing" by-over-the-top Republicans with no foundation for what they are advocating.

At the same time this background noise shouldn't prevent questions being asked by Democrated of the actions of Joe Biden. And, it's not just the exit from Afghanistan but the much bigger picture.

This IS a test of competence for Joe Biden and his administration. I see a dreadful lack of vision, thinking and even care (which some consider the worst) in his dealing with the people of Afghanistan. He essentially followed the surrender to the Taliban of his predecessor and that did not have to be so.

We Americans have returned to our cave (admittedly a big one) and the Taliban and others have come out of theirs.

Many thanks.
