It was wrong when Obama did it in Libya

Apples and oranges, my friend.

Libya was an internal matter and we should have stayed out. Iran wants to wipe another country off the map. That, cannot be allowed.

Sorry, but I don't buy that we have to go involving ourselves in every hot spot the world over.

Somebody please tell Romney that we don't even have enough money left to operate that pirate ship in the Pirate's of the Caribbean ride at Disney, much less launch yet another war in the Middle East.

“Libya was an internal matter and we should have stayed out”

Why should we have stayed out? Operation Odyssey Dawn was a huge success. No American casualties. A brutal dictator was overthrown. Muammar Gaddafi ordered the attack on Pan Am Flight 103. 189 Americans killed by him on that flight.

Is there some reason why the other country can’t defend itself? I support protecting our allies, but we don’t have to fight their wars for them.

If Iran is that clear-cut, then it shouldn't be a problem getting the full backing of Congress, regardless of your views on when and how the President can wage war.
