So, it's ok to go to war and bomb another country without congressional approval, as long as the President is a big L and D Liberal Democrat and he says we'll save a hundred thousand people. Which of course there is no way of proving is a true claim. Yet, on the other hand, when a dictator like Saddam Hussein kills hundreds of thousands and threatens to kill more and has proven to be a thug capable of attacking other countries in the region, that's an impeachable offense when the President is a little C big R Republican even though he has obtained congressional approval for the action. And you wonder why more Americans don't take liberal twisted logic seriously.

The Arab league wants action, so let them do it. They have all our money anyway. And all the military shit we sold them. If they are capable of solving Syria, why didn't we leave Libya for them to solve. It wasn't our problem, it was theirs.

"In Libya it was to achieve an immediate known problem. Save a hundred thousand? people from immediate slaughter with our action as part of a huge coalition including NATO and the Arab league." Absolute BS. Libya was bombed until Gaddafi (sp?) was gone. It was all about regime change. The killer Obama was on the loose in Libya. The fool had no idea of what was going to be the result of his "caring". If anything is clear - Obama does not think anything - anything - through to its logical conclusion. Obama is a disaster and anyone who bothered to look into his history should have known he had never run a lemonade stand. America and the world are paying a horrible price for this amateur. He is a buffoon for all to laugh at on the world stage. In particular - Putin simply loves pulling his chain. Just think how we were told about all we had to do was be nice and everything would be ok. Naive fool! Bob
