Defense Secretary: Libya Did Not Pose Threat to U.S.
ABC News ^ | Jake Tapper

Posted on 03/27/2011 12:15:12 PM PDT by Siena Dreaming

"Tapper asked Clinton, “Why not got to Congress?”

“Well, we would welcome congressional support,” the Secretary said, “but I don't think that this kind of internationally authorized intervention where we are one of a number of countries participating to enforce a humanitarian mission is the kind of unilateral action that either I or President Obama was speaking of several years ago.”

The above quote from Clinton is what caught my eye.

Just for the record, The Regime made the Hildebeest and Gates available for every single Sunday talk show this morning, except one.

Fox News Sunday.

My wife made sure I had taken my blood pressure medication this morning before she let me turn on the TV....good thing too....

Give the woman a medal, figured out that a nation of 5 million or so people, a huge number of which live at least 7 centuries or so behind the times, and whose leader had just caved into Bush’s demands to release all nuke info, is not near the top of the list of nations threatening our security.

internationally authorized intervention

The president of the US orders the launching of cruise missiles on a sovereign country is an act of war, not a humanitarian intervention. Not that Gadaffi doesn't need killing but I'm with Gates on this one that this military action against Libya has no clear basis on US security interests. Just because the UN says sick em and the Obozo jumps means congress needs to take measures to remove this criminal before the UN tells him to order the US military to attack another country.

The only person I know who speaks English, and still needs a translator. I guess that is what CNN is for.
