Article II, Section 2, Clause 2.

[Howie66]

Maybe the first to go to libya are the ILLEGAL ALIENS that were caught wearing Marine uniforms the other day.

Just drop them into the area and let them fend for themselves!

No...kidding. D##m, d(&m, d&^%m.

Chances are these rebels are backed by extremists and most likely Al Qaeda who are in the eastern part of the country especially the northeast.

We may be shedding US blood to put in power the very same people reported to leave eastern Libya to go and kill our soldiers in Iraq.

Qadaffi's been struggling to keep Al Qaeda in check in Libya for a long time now. They've tried to assassinate Qadaffi several times and have been trying to take control of Libya. That's most likely the main reason why Qadaffi join and participated in our war against Al Qaeda.

... to the shores of Tripoli.

[GeronL]

800 on two ships already off the coast waiting orders from whoever is in charge of this mess.

[lwd]

Are they carrying their weapons or did 0bama send them in unarmed, with a blue helmet on, to “keep the peace”?

[redgolum]

Oh dear God no.

Another unwinable war with people that don't want us there.

"Marines from the 26th MEU are coming on the end of their deployment. They will be replaced with marines from the 22nd MEU. "

The 22nd MEU... my old outfit. I hope they don't shafted by stupid nation building crap, and the Amateur in the White House.

"Section. 2. The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States; he may require the Opinion, in writing, of the principal Officer in each of the executive Departments, upon any Subject relating to the Duties of their respective Offices, and he shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offences against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment.

He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law: but the Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments.

The President shall have Power to fill up all Vacancies that may happen during the Recess of the Senate, by granting Commissions which shall expire at the End of their next Session."

I don't see it there.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

[Don Corleone]

Ol’ “No boots on the ground” Obama again. What are the Marines going to do..serve meals on the Carriers?

[Iron Munro]

America's Boy Wonder Goes To War

Hillary and those other bullies won't be kicking sand in O'Bozo's face anymore!

[Buckeye McFrog]

so Obama’s “no boots on the ground” pledge lasted all of, what, five days?

[AppyPappy]

Grenada, Panama, Kuwait, etc

[B.O. Plenty]

Boots on the ground

boots on the ground

Zer0 lookin like a fool

with boots on the ground...

[bayliving]

Actions have consequences.

I am 100% confident that there will be unforeseen consequences of the United States attacking a sovereign nation unprovoked.

Not liking the nations ruler or how he treats his people is no excuse for sacrificing our national treasure.

GOD save our Republic...

[Buddygirl]

I agree. We don’t need to waste our boys’ lives and the ammunition over there. We need to pick our fights intelligently. Obama is just evil enough to throw away our sons’ lives to make our country weak. Impeach and remove him now on the charges that the thing Obama did is unconstitutional!

[satan]

When is Obozo going to send the Marines back to the Halls of Montezuma?

[Rennes Templar]

“We don’t need to waste our boys’ lives and the ammunition over there.’

But the Great One is averting a humanitarian crisis! Of course he’s creating another one in the process. But he will go down in history as having saved thousands of lives
of our close friends, the Libyans.
