I think it’s stupid to get involved in Libya at all but Bolton is right. 0blahblah dithered as usual.
John Bolton would make a great SecState or SecDef but he lacks the charisma for an Executive post. I love the guy.
Obama did not get Congressional approval for this. That’s a big deal. The War Powers Act does NOT cover *saving* people. Dennis Kucinich is right about this!
Then there were calls for a no-fly zone during the days when we figured any hour now Gadaffi will be stepping down and leaving the country. Sean Hannity was saying at the end of his radio show "tune into Fox news tonight and get the latest on Gadaffi's stepping down".
Well since the no-fly zone regime change calls initiated it appears now that Gadaffi's back in total control and now the military action has been approved.
I'm sure Obama's looking for a way out of this now.
Well, how the heck is he going to be able to take care of Libya in a timely manner when there are so many other important things going on? Rio, golf, basketball...
Here’s what I think should be the talking ponts from now until 2012.
1. Obama is getting us involved in an INTRACTABLE CIIVL WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST.
2. He is OUTSOURCING the main part of the military effort.
3. He did both of these without ANY CONGRESSIONAL APPROVAL whatsoever, therefore acting UNILATERALLY.
I am laughing my ass off how much Obama is emulating Bush and getting no credit for it.
