I think the military leaders screwed up Iraq, but I can at least understand why we went in there. Libya? I’m still waiting for the Democrats to explain why we went in there.

Not so much military leaders on the ground there as the DoS, USAID and Paul Bremer calling the shots for nuance sake. This is what happens when our military leaders buys into nation building as a military and national security strategy. Blood and treasure spent, and for what? It's like pulling your hand out of a bucket of water. In this case, sewer water. But at least Bush got to serve turkey to the troops, so it's all good.
