So...ummm...why didnt you mention the members of his own party that believe his action was an impeachable offense? That blind mindless ideology got you so spun up all you see is evil republicans that oppose him or his actions? Last polls I saw showed more republicans supported the presidents actions than did democrats. Granted that was...what...Thursday afternoon...so that may have changed.
So are YOU a racist? I mean since you keep bringin it up. I mean since you and you ALONE keep bringing it up. Damned racist democrats. You'd think they would have grown...learned...moved forward. But no...
Why didn't I mention members of his own party, did President Obama change parties?Is President Obama still a democrat? I really don't care which party disagrees with his foreign policy in Libya nor do I care how many here disagree with his actions in Libya.
I have a multi racial family, served in combat with the US infantry in Viet Nam where six out of the nine in my squad where minorities, so your right I am a racist.
Those who disagree with the decision to get involved seem to change their mind every time the wind changes direction I do not see any uniformity or consistency in those who believe that the effort in Libya is wrong, I struggled to make a decision based on my limited knowledge of why we are involved, the Presidents party had nothing to do with my conclusion, I don't believe that America gets involved in any conflict, police action or war that does not in some way benefit American interests. With the UN backing the effort in Libya and America not spear heading the decision the only real American interest I can see is an interest to prevent the imminent slaughter of other human beings.
The President has stated that our policy the American policy would be the removal of Kadafy he has also stated that our mission in Libya is to prevent the slaughter of the oppositon party I do not see a conflict between American policy and this mission, it is possible to stop the slaughter without removing Kadafy, It is possible to remove Kadafi with out killing him. What happens in Libya will have an effect on what happens in the other middle eastern countries we can be part of the struggle or we can sit back and watch what happens. We did not interfere in Egypt where the protests did not include the slaughter of thousands of people. President Obama's reluctance to get involved any more then what we are in the middle east indicates that he is willing to let the different protesting countries work through to their own out come.
Maybe it's possible that the Presidents decision to participate in Libya is not tainted by US interests in oil, maybe that is why their is so much resistance to our being in Libya, maybe as I have suggested racial bias, a chance to further defame the President plays into the resistance to our involvement in Libya.
To this point I have not denigrated the character of any poster here, I wonder how much different people would be if they had to sit across the table from one another when participating in debates
