I don’t like this. I think our forces are spread too thin.

Are they under the UN? Or our own command structure?

Interestingly, the “humanitarian” interventionists on FR have remained silent or complicit as U.S. funded Saudi forces are mowing down protesters and Bahrain.

Hmmmm, Friday afternoon, mainstream media not paying attention, world attention focused on Japan. . . Yep, typical Zero behavior. Pray for our troops going in because the Commander in Chief hasn’t a clue what he’s doing.

Still waiting for the Freeper interventionists to come onto this thread and depend the action of their commander-in-chief.

Couldn't agree more. Just plain stupid.

Perpetual war, foreign entanglements, blood and treasure spent as the World's Policeman. . . hope and change indeed.

Folks it sounds to me like we are in another war. This with an incompetent and disengaged President. Pray for our country.

Zero’s supposed to be on at 2 p.m. for some sort of statement. SeeBS is preempting the tourney for it.

Of course Zero is late while he’s on his most excellent Rio vacation. What else is new?

I agree with you on this. This was an instance, since we had no dog in this fight, to sit back an keep the mouths shut.

Now we are going to get entangled again in business that isn’t ours. Goading Obama into this was absurd.
