The White House said Thursday that President Obama believes the NATO mission in Libya is succeeding, and he is opposed to ending that mission right now.

With a number of Democrats and some Republicans pushing for an end to U.S. involvement in the mission, White House press secretary Jay Carney said the president believes most members agree with the mission.

"We believe that the policy is working," Carney said. "We believe the goal the president has is shared by the majority of the members of Congress."

Carney said the president has held true to his word that the U.S. would step back from its leadership position in the bombing campaign after the early days of the mission.

And, Carney said, the White House has "consulted Congress every step of the way."

"We believe the goal the president has is shared by the majority of the members of Congress."

I don't believe the Won has ever stated what the goal is. Has he?

“We believe the goal the president has is shared by the majority of the members of Congress.”

Well then, jackwagon, why not follow the law and have Congress vote on it...??

What is the “NATO” mission in Libya?

Apparently, it’s a proving ground for ground attack aircraft.

The Fuhrer has been breaking the law for 2 weeks now. He has no authority what so ever to spend our money on a Libyan war or what ever the hell this is. The silence from Boehner and company is, once again, deafening.

Nevermind ...

Last call!

Moamar knows too much about the Bamster, no way he is getting out of this alive.

[When do we get liberated?]

Well I would feel better about it if that were the case....

Exactly

If they believe Congress will go along with the war in Libya ,put it to the vote.

They know it will not pass, they are lying again.

Fact is Obama by law does not have a choice. Stop pussyfooting around with him and order him to bring his case to Congress.He isn’t above the law even if he does think he is.

No war for oil. Obama lied people died.

Blah blah blah.
