Bush makes first (surprise) visit to Afghanistan

The opening paragraph of this NYT story makes me want to barf. I had no idea that Afghanistan did not exist before Dear Leader appeared. What magical powers he has!
President Bush made a surprise five-hour visit to Afghanistan on Wednesday to meet with President Hamid Karzai and to see for the first time the country created after the United States went to war against the Taliban in retaliation for the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

Uh...the country was there folks. A new government was created, not a new country. Good God.
