 during the president's time in office in Afghanistan, one of the main themes of his speech tonight. We'll hear more about that and more about the convention straight ahead here on WTOP. It's 8.31. You're listening to WTOP, Washington's news, traffic, and weather station. The WTOP producer's desk is wired by IBEW Local 26, where electrical contractors come to grow. Good evening, I'm Dimitri Sotis. Rich Hunter is our producer.
