So what? Tell me what kind of government would you like to see in Libya? I have been watching the word play going on it disgustingly unbelievable listening to some of these space cadets second guessing every thing.
A free and peaceful nation where the government is determined by the people and not a tinhorn tyrant.
Some are crying he should have moved sooner some are crying he should be going after Kadafi, some are crying that he should have held congressional meetings before committing and now some are taking installing a democratic system to mean that they want to install puppets like we installed in Iraq and Afganistan. the UN is running this show not the USA, the people of Libya are going to form their own government just like the people in Egypt are attempting to do.
The UN passed a resolution. They aren't running the show by any means. From what I'm reading the UN wants to give this thing to NATO.
0bama has to stand up and lead on this one. As with any military operation there will be problems, mistakes and valid criticisms.
We did not install puppet governments in Iraq or Afghanistan as you know.
I am not crazy about our decision to go into Libya but it would be a hard not to try to save the rebels looking to oust Kadafi. There are 28 NATO countries plus some Arabian countries participating, this may be the beginning of a world environment that could redefine the way that wars and conflicts are approached and settled in the future. Finally we have a united front ready to deal with a dictator who we know has caused a lot of pain and suffering around the world, isn't it time to stand up and support the President and his administration?
I support the President on this one as well. The coalition is falling apart and 0bama needs to drop the clubs and start leading.
