“Show me the written sourse or post a link to a video showing her saying that.”

Video at the link:

“Certainly a no fly zone,” Palin said. “I hate to say, jeez, more troops on the ground. You know send more of our brave young men and women over there in Libya. When yes, 41 years of Gadhafi. He’s got to go.”

thanks for the link, she is doing an about face, and I say good for her. Never really understood why a good conservative like Sara would be in bed with the neocons, now she no longer is. Excellent.

And, in that interview she advocated ground troops AND regime change.

Have to agree with Bigtigermike. I saw that video too. The words on paper do come out like seeing the video. She was clearly expressing a reluctance to go the direction of committing our troops to ground combat when objectives were not clear. But she did think there needed to be air cover as a way to protect civilians from senseless genocide. And her timing was much better than Obama’s. Had he acted as quickly as that, the situation might not have degenerated into the present mess it now is. Read the Art of War. Timing is critical in military conflicts, whether you’re a Reaganite, a neocon, a liberal/libertarian, or an amateur golfer trying to play president in your spare time.
