Afford it? We could if Obama would use the frozen $35 Billion of Qadaffi’s money to pay us back. Haven’t heard a word of this idea from our politicians. Why??????
I would rather have Gaddafi we know him.
Obama and Europe who needs the 1.8 million barrels a day and Europe doesn't care who they do business with see Iran.
Of course we can’t. Good Lord, folks, we’re broke!
Nope. Can't really afford the other two wars we've got going on. Or all the other ones that politicians on both sides are eager to get us in to for that matter.
The list of things we can afford is vanishingly small.
You mean: “Can we afford this Oil for Europe war”?
Someone please explain why the US is engaged in a battle against a dictator who was no threat to us directly and who is not being besieged by Al Qaeda terrorist “rebels”? While Gaddafi is not “good guy” by any stretch, why are we HELPING AQ??????
This is 100% grounds for immediate impeachment proceedings against BO.
Those who screamed about GW - at least he got the approval of CONGRESS!!! BO is just going about it how he wants - and in the process, SUPPORTING TERRORISTS. Maybe we need to list OURSELVES as a terrorist-supporting country.
Hello - where is our US military? The oath they have taken when they joined was to protect the US Constitution from enemies, both foreign and domestic. They also swore to follow the LAWFUL orders of their commanders. This conflict is UNLAWFUL. Period.
It cannot be afforded and that was the point of getting into it, to help ensure that America couldn’t afford to get out of its financial difficulties.
