Thom Hartmann: Most Americans now disapprove of the Afghanistan War

No more war! That's the message the American people are sending as approval for the Afghanistan war has now dropped to an all-time low. A new AP poll shows that only 27% of Americans support the war - that's a ten-point drop from one year ago.
 
On the flip-side two-thirds of Americans are opposed to the war - and 40% say they are "strongly opposed" to the war. So far - 1,834 U.S. soldiers have died in Afghanistan - and the conditions don't seem to be getting much better over there. French President-Elect Francois Hollande has promised to remove all troops from Afghanistan by the end of this year. I think it's time we do the same.
