Let’s be perfectly clear about something, folks....

Yesterday, Obama destroyed the moral superiority and the moral high ground the liberal left has been claiming since 2003.

In a single act, he has exposed the utter hypocrisy of all the years of anti-war stances held by the Democratic Party and the liberal left.

It was NEVER really about the wars, it was only about hurting Bush, and getting a Radical Democrat elected as President of the United States.

We MUST drive this point home to everyone we know, in any way we can, before the “OBAMA WARRIOR PRESIDENT!” meme takes hold.

The temptations to hypocrisy that are available to political people are many, and foreign policy is certainly no exception.

Might be a really good idea for conservatives to remember not to become what they say they hate.

Principled consistency is what is called for.

Something the Left has no concept of, of course.

Moammar Qaddafi killed Americans!!!!

What about the war in your own backyard?

Are you so distracted by this Obama campaign event decoy and U.N. one world police action, you failed to notice?

More people are being killed and wounded, right on the Mexican/Texas border, not to mention Mexicans are causing epic harm to our economy, are choking off our medical system and have killed, raped, robbed shot, stabbed, and ran over tens of thousands of Americans ...

Shouldn't be be bombing Mexico?

There may just be a “few of us” that don’t recognize our country at present.

Obama's Az. Memorial/campaign speech used the term UNITY IN DIVERSITY.

Congressional GOP's response to Obama on Libya is largely muted
Barry's announcement of a U.S. military role in the Libyan conflict on Friday met mostly with silence from Republican congressional leaders. [Leaders? What "leader" remains silent in a case like this?]

Barry briefed a bipartisan group of House and Senate leaders at the White House before his speech to the nation, but Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) withheld comment in the hours after his address.

If you can stand it...Here is a vid of Lugar on Face the Nation today.

Although this article is 10 days old it quotes a number of critters, including J F'ing.

TopQuark said: I am still struggling to explain why conservatives, including Sarah Palin, would even think a second about supporting attacks on Libya

You are free to sit at home and hatch eggs. Only real men can think beyond themselves.

Thanks.

I think a lot of things are becoming clearer.

Excellent point!

It was NEVER really about the wars, it was only about hurting Bush, and getting a Radical Democrat elected as President of the United States.

Just exactly right! Many of us have known this for a very long time. Their alleged outrage at the war in Iraq made no sense nor did any of their talking points.

We MUST drive this point home to everyone we know, in any way we can, before the “OBAMA WARRIOR PRESIDENT!” meme takes hold.

Agree! I was posting on that very point on a number of other sites last night.

Kucinich has called for the impeachement of Zero.

The only real titan in the Dem party to watch is Hillary.

And scarier, if you ask me.
