The Obama administration is spending almost $9.5 million every single day to blow things up in Libya because the president has determined that is in the country's national interest, this country's national interest, not Libya's.
You may not have noticed the $392,542 flowing out of the national treasury every hour, day and night, since those first $1.5 million Tomahawks flashed from the launch tubes back on March 19.
But Libya's dictator Moammar Kadafi has. Not enough to quit, mind you, because he can hide while his troops do the dying and killing.
Kadafi's military might has been degraded sufficiently by allied missiles and bombs to perhaps create a long-lasting stalemate with rebel forces in the desert conflict that Obama initially promised House members would last a matter of days, not weeks.
Thirteen weeks later Obama, who was elected running against the war in Iraq, finds himself also embroiled in an escalating constitutional conflict at home over another war that he started while touring South America with his family in March.
You may recall that nine days later the Real Good Talker did what he usually does when attacked; he gave a speech to address the outcry over the sudden conflict without meaningful congressional consultation.

That’s an awful lotta dough to be p*ssing down the drain on Sheikh Hussein’s whim.
Guess he felt he wasn’t bankrupting the nation quickly enough.
Dennis Kucinich, 2 other Dems and 7 or 9 Pubbies have filed a Lawsuit against Obama re: The “non-war” in Libya.
I wish Kucinich would run against President Clueless in the Dem Primaries (as his challenger from the ultra-Left) to force Obama to spend campaign money before the General Election and to keep Dems from voting in the GOP Primary.
Knock it off, I own a bunch of Raytheon stock.

Bump.
We have lost every war since WWII because we have not had a clear objective. We should only commit war on our enemies that we want to achieve a clear material gain from or those who directly engage us in an attack on our citizens or property and then it should not be limited. We did not limit our warfare on Germany or Japan however when these defeated nations pulled themselves out of the rubble they became wealthy and responsible States.
Have you tried to sell a heart or mind lately. Trust me the market is not there.
Obama should have spent some of that money sending this guy to an English class.
It’s an illegal war run by an illegal president who’s likely an illegal alien.
ROFLOL

still waiting for Michael Moore and Cindy Sheehan to chain themselves to the White House gate...
I’m telling you, two suitcases full of $100 bills delivered to the Democrat headquarters, and the bombs stop.
