As I’ve said before, she has to be careful about how she talks about foreign policy. Democrats say whatever the hell they like, but responsible politicians have to be careful if they are not part of the administration.
That said, she did NOT especially push the Libyan war. She did say that Obama should make up his mind, and stop changing what he says every five minutes.
I’m glad to see this shift. Those McCain advisers were idiots, as we can perhaps see from McCain’s current behavior concerning Libya.
It must be said that NO OTHER REPUBLICANS have come out and said what should have been said about the Libyan war: That Obama started bombing a sovereign nation without making any effort whatsoever to address the nation or to go to congress. Contrast that with Bush, who explained what he was doing and got congressional permission to do it—although the Democrats soon seemed to forget what they had voted for.
Boehner sent Obama a LETTER, and then dropped the whole subject. Our Senate leaders, who should have been consulted, have said NOTHING.
It seems to me that Sarah has been better than most on this subject, and now is really getting the right idea—unlike anyone else interested in running for President. Unless you count one-note Ron Paul, who wouldn’t know the difference between a war in our interests and a war against our interests, like this one.
>> That said, she did NOT especially push the Libyan war.
Palin must not underestimate her influence, and likewise choose her public statements accordingly.
2) Daffy called up our side and surrendered all of his Nuclear and Chemical weapons plans and equipment... he got "with us"... the CIA and Defense have both said he was cooperating with us on Intel. He was a terrorist... so was Saddam... but Bush offered Saddam and his sons a chance to leave Iraq and not be pursued... IOW getting “with us”.
3) For pure political WAG THE DOG... obama violated many things... including the solemn WORD OF THE USA.
4) We had no business getting involved in Libya for any of the reasons that obamao stated... and those reasons changed as often as the dead binny saga... and if there are any imams in iran that were thinking about deposing nutjob (you see that there is news out of iran about nutjob's inner circle being arrested for sorcery) and joining the responsible world community... do you think that they would trust anything this president has to say or offer?
