Barry gets to carve another notch on his Nobel “Peace” Prize medallion.
“... the inconsistencies and the hypocrisy that comes from the left never ceases to amaze.”
Dittos — for the reasons she gave in the article. I would also add that it’s ironic that the left demands full rights to civilian trials for captured terrorists — yet cheers loudly when they’re killed with no hearing whatsoever. Inconsistencies and hypocrisy, indeed.
GWBush could have learned from this instead his baseball bat approach with Iraq.
Bingo. Let's not go around premature celebrating like Hitlary. Remember those thousands of surface-to-air missiles that are now unaccounted for.
From the American interest point of view, Khaddafy had been behaving himself well for the last eight years or so.
From the Libyan point of view, he was an open-borders traitor to the Libyan people. His “oppressiveness” wasn’t that bad by Arab standards.
I don’t know if either the general run of Americans or the American elite will ever connect the dots...
Also ironic is that NATO is doing this. When Reagan bombed Libya, neither France nor Spain would the planes into their airspace, so they had to fly around them after they departed England, adding over 1000 miles to the trip and requiring in-flight refuelings. I don’t even want to think about the number of hours those pilots spent sitting at those controls.
“she finds it “ironic” that those on the left who condemned President Ronald Reagan for his 1986 Libyan air strikes now are lauding President Barack Obama for his contributions to Gadhafi’s demise. “
Agreed. I remember when it happened and the left went ballistic against President Reagan. But since Obama’s a Democrat, it’s OK. :?
