In March, you Republicans said Obama didn't act quickly enough and with
enough force in going after Gaddafi. Then when Obama acted, you said Obama acted too hastily, acted unconstitutionally and needed to be impeached. Today, you say Obama didn't act soon enough. Pobrecitos. You can't handle the fact that **** gets done nowadays. In 6 months, Libya went from status quo to Gaddafi dead, something at which Saint Ronny Raegan tried and failed. Osama bin Laden is dead, something Dubya couldn't do in 8 years. Now, with US and NATO assistance, the Libyan government has changed hands and Gaddafi is dead. Just face it, Repubs, you suck at anything other than lowering taxes for yourselves and bankrupting the United States. Maybe it's time for you to sit the **** down, shut the **** up, and let the adults handle things. Okay? Okay. --- Swiped from KOS, and spot-on. |

They're excellent liars and incredibly good at getting people to vote against their own best interests. But they hate governing and do a ****ty job at it. The only reason they want to be a part of it is to rip it apart. |

The open question will be whether we are actually better off with him gone. As the Clinton people used to say about Saddam, we had Qdaffy "contained". (a lot more than Saddam) This whole Arab Spring thing can still blow up in our face if these guys don't turn out to be the peace loving people we hope they will be. I can remember people talking about what a great guy Castro was because he defeated that evil dictator Batista and how he was going to bring freedom to the island.. That lasted about 6 weeks until Castro said, "Oh wait. Maybe I am really a communist" (after denying it for years) and started nationalizing the whole island. Two years later we damned near had WWIII over Cuba. This time it might be WWIII over Israel. Well, it's clear that is Obamas desire... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J27IjWHp_bQ snerk *Scotty doesn't know* is linking us to Sean Hannity, one of the Faux News flaming assholes. To numbskulls, Faux News is the same as the old library in Alexandria, Egypt. |

We did have an absolute dummy in the white house from 2001 to January 2009. You know, the guy who started two wars with countries not at war with us. That dummy. You mean the dummy who is running around assassinating citizens without a trial, killing foreign leaders, shooting at uniformed soldiers, they shooting back, but we are not at war, that dummy. Yeah, he is a traitor and has blown the constitution all to hell... |

We did have an absolute dummy in the white house from 2001 to January 2009. You know, the guy who started two wars with countries not at war with us. That dummy. ------------------------------------------------------------------ I am old enough to remember well the Cuban missile crisis and watching JFK on television announcing the blockade. It turns out he made the right choice of his options but most historians agree that we were never closer to WWIII. It could have gone another way. Khrushchev also got much of what he wanted in under reported, secret negotiations. I think many are too quick to condemn Bush for some of his decisions and seem to forget that forcing Saddam Hussein from power was not without at least 6 months of international discussion and debate in the UN. Hussein was becoming increasingly more defiant of the resolutions imposed by the international community (UN) following his invasion of Kuwait, firing on aircraft patrolling the "no fly" zone, etc. I am sure there was some pressure from other nations as well to keep him in check. We can only speculate on what actions Hussein would have taken if he was not confronted. If Bush had done nothing and Hussein had become more aggressive again, internally and with neighbors, Bush would be regarded as a dummy for not doing anything rather than being a dummy for the action he took. Tough job, being POTUS. I surely would never want it. President Obama rightly deserves some credit for helping rid the world of Gaddafi. Hussein was also a war mongering dictator who ruled by imposing terror on Iraqi citizens who didn't pledge their allegiance to him. So why is Bush a dummy and Obama a hero? The argument that Obama took a "back seat" role versus a major military action doesn't hold up. Different situations, different difficulties and challenges. |
