He's also okay with adding more troops to Afghanistan, he's also OK with authorizing another no-fly zone over another Muslim country and taking part in bombing them. You don't seem to recall - but in the early 2001-2003 another President did this same thing and the result was hyperbolic rhetoric from the left - worldwide condemnation, protests in theU.S. Europe and Asia constantly about Bush=Hitler, Bush=Fascist, Bush=Blood for Oil, Bush=Baby Killer... etc.
Now almost the exact same thing happens --- we throw in with the UN, we authorize bombing of a Muslim country who's greatest export is... anyone? OIL.
Not a ****ing peep ... out of the media, with world wide protests, with anything. But you see this is all to save the people of Libya - that's the narrative context cover story. If it was bull**** when G.W. Bush did it, it's bull**** when Obama does it. Anything else from our left of center political friends is the biggest steeming pile of hypocrisy ever seen and should be called out as such. Right now, the only sound is crickets.
Well, yeah but you can tell he doesn't like doing it, Ockham. Don't you see the look of distaste on his face when he has to come off the golf course and deal with these things? Except the drones, he thinks the drones are pretty cool.
Heh, heh, heh. . .At the White House Correspondents' Dinner Saturday night, President Obama noted that in the audience were the Jonas brothers.
"Sasha and Malia are huge fans," he said, "but boys, don't get any ideas. Two words for you: predator drones. You will never see it coming.”
