Obama can try to say that it is boots on the ground that constitutes war, but he apparently believed that air strikes then, and thus they would be warfare now as well. Otherwise his citing of the WPR was misleading America on his part (which I don’t believe to be the case.

Either way, he will have to say that we are at war now or that he misled America.

Damn those poor Japanese!
Since now Bombing a country seems to be no longer an act of war as long as you don´t have boots on the ground i guess we really did them serious wrong after they bombed pearl harbor.

BTW, how can the Obama administration say that cyber strikes on the U.S. constitutes warfare but air strikes aren’t warfare? Why then do Obama administration officials say that we aren’t presently at war with Libya?

All true but irrelevant. Since Obama has been president/emperor he has contradicted himself a hundred times and has done the opposite to almost every one of his campaign promises. Nothing happens. The MSM is silent.

All the Laws or Reality or Facts or Logic in the world, no matter how correct, will have no effect on him. He just does and says anything he wants and gets away with it every time.

It is good to be the KING.

In the article, Obama notified Congress of his decision to deploy U.S. forces against Gadhfi. Obama said that the strikes against Libya’s air defense systems and military airfields to establish no-fly zones were authorized under U.N. security Resolution 1973.


Wow the libyans have really strange looking airfields and
and air defence system these days.
I could swear the first targed is a ship (maybe we should have bought it instead of destroyed it because who doesn´t need flying ships?)
And the second one must be one of this brand new flying tanks they have.

Wont the court just say to congress, you have the power to impeach him, do it. I think they want the court to do what they are not wiling to do.

There’s so little public support for this fiasco, I can hardly believe we are still bombing. It’s a crappy thing to do to our pilots.

Why is it that the Democrats oppose wars in our national interest and favor wars that have nothing to do with our national interests?
