America has a lot of irons in the fire.

[caww]

I heard 600,000 a piece...at any rate first phase has cost a whole heap...multiply times 110 fired...staggering.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

Do you think DUmmies are for what is in post 59?

Thanks for the feedback. Interesting. So they are just Obots. . .

BTW folks, Where are Soros, Code Pink, Ayers, SDS and all the One Nation rally sponsors? Are they backing Obama's Wars?

Gee, all those lefty groups are now pro-War and applaud Obama, their dear leader, in the worldwide class warfare socialist revolution? Maybe they'll get conservative and vote for Sarah Palin on November 6, 2012, ya think?

Obozo got a green light from the international community, but did he get a resolution from congress?

No he didn't, excellent point!

Under the War Powers Act, the president must notify Congress within 48 hours of commencing hostilities. Remember how the Dem's forced Bush to go back on his no new taxes pledge in order to get authorization for Desert Storm? I expect Boehner will attach a repeal of obamacare, dramatic budget cuts and tell the GOP members to vote yes.

Great!! Just when the French and UK were doing so well we had to get involved. Now we will be occupying 3 shiteholes.

Why can’t we just invade Mexico where we can actually do some good for our own country?

[Absolutely Nobama]

I feel this burning need to troll DU.... Must resist...

Great idea! Hey you congressional staffers, please pass this on!

[PROCON]

He damn well better not put boots on the ground! Time for us to hit the Congresscritters phones and emails HARD.

I think the $h!ts going to hit the fan tomorrow, maybe even with the MSM...Congress has the sole authority to declare war or call for American intervention, it'll be interesting to see how tomorrow's news goes...

“But we have Amphibious Ready Groups over there just in case we need to land helicopters and hovercraft on the shores of... Benghazi.”

And yet, we still have no troops on OUR border to stop the Mexican trickle inavsion.

[prisoner6]

strikes on Libyan targets is only the first phase

Well yeah. Then there's the bowing and apologizing.

I hope your right; that will make my opinion of Boehner increase significantly!!

Sure they are! The whole workers-unite scam is about a one world socialist/communist world order done 'the right way', if you'll excuse the pun. And yes, Obama wants to be Thee Leader don'tcha know? Forget Mt. Rushmore, he's going for The World. . . Move over Mao. . .

[sickoflibs]

RE :”Nope. He'll let it fester until Palin is President and she'll have to finish it. Then the left will blame Palin for the whole thing. It's the lefty way doncha know. “

Yes, I have seen this done before, leaving a mess for the next guy.

“I expect Boehner will attach a repeal of obamacare, dramatic budget cuts and tell the GOP members to vote yes.”

I expect to see him folding his tent like usual between sobs.

Is it me or should Michele Bachmann have been Speaker ?

“We’re only sending advisors to Vietnam, they won’t see any combat.”

My dad was an "advisor". He did three tours of Vietnam, and according to him, it got pretty exciting at times.

[DYngbld]

Make sure you wash your hands.

[junta]

Lets be honest if a little crude, Obama is being used like the Gimp was being used in Pulp Fiction.”

I bet it did.

[Windflier]

Yeah, I know some DU people are reading this thread. I see you over there.

How do you like it that your Unicorn-riding President is launching hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars worth of cruise missiles at little brown people in the Third World while he's celebrating at Carnival in Rio with executive fat cats from Halliburton and big oil companies in his entourage?

Ouch! LOL

Seriously, though, it's not hypocritical when a Democrat president does it, right?
