quote: ORIGINAL: Sanity The first may have been hyperbole but it speaks to the issue as you have pointed out, whenever theres a crisis (the Gulf oil leak, Libya, Japan) the man likes to vote 'present' from the golf course or Rio or wherever In some ways as my sig line says his passivity is a good thing though, not necessarily complaining just more or less saying Coming from someone who laments the end of Bush II this is just comical.How can you try to score points on the "vacation" habits of this President in light of your guy's propensity to "vacate" his office?

Getting back to the original question - no , its not too late as long as the fly zone max altitude includes busting tanks....

Gingrich - the rat who ran out on his first wife while she was stricken with cancer, who admits to repeatedly taking bad decisions under pressure - is just the type of person you need to provide backbone and leadership during a crisis. Yeppers! Sure! I'll go for that. But only if the crisis is about something no more substantial than where to put the big star on the Christmas tree. Quoting Gingrich to support a position is an admission of bankruptcy. A bit like consulting Pol Pot on ethics, or Westboro Baptist Phelps on love.

You have to forgive poor Sanity, he got caught with his proverbial pants down. While his fellow right wingers were paying attention to what France and the UK were doing, I am sure Gadhafi was as well, we launched an attack. I am sure they weren't expecting us to slip in under that smoke screen and deliver missiles. I guess they were supposed to announce the attack before hand. That would have made Sanity and Newt happy.

Of course, all those high moral principles they were spouting are going to be revealed as nthing but partisan posturing and the empty rhetoric of hypocrisy now that President Obama has chosen to fire the opening shots of our third war in the region. I don't care for Newt, but this decision, and how we came to it, are certainly fair game.

Heretic, are you saying that us getting involved with the Libya mess is a bad idea?

Doesn't Newt fall under the "No scum bag left behind" plan?

If you are hoping to drag that into some weeds, let me tell you now that I also thought going into Iraq and Afghanistan were bad ideas as well. We have a way of getting stuck in these places, you know.

My truck isn't with Newt's attack...it was with your insistence that he was "staying above the belt"...and oh yeah with Newt himself, the fact that he thinks he can rehabilitate his reputation to such a degree to make a run...proves he is delusional.

Then my understanding is, you get what you ask for and because you ask for it, you have no right to complain when you get bored of it. Your choice.

Well if we are going to contrast it with something dredged up by sanity....... p.s. Yes i know they were both the sane one's postings....lol.

That Gingrich is being taken seriusly after, his * I know god will understand* schtick pfffft hes still newtshit crazy and trying to pull the wool over dumbasses eyes

slvemike4u -> RE: Is it too late for No-fly zone to be effective? (3/19/2011 6:14:22 PM)
Lucy I will not be convinced he is being taken seriously till he accepts the nomination at the Republican convention....if this were a horse race him and the cuda would be available in the 50 to 1 pool. There have to be enough sensible folks left in the Republican party to know that neither on of them would stand a chance in the general election

Newt was and always IS above the belt. He just drops the belt before starting oral arguments sometimes...

My first thought was "WTF, do these guys know what a 'no fly zone' is?" but there was a later report that Ghadaffi had said he would respect the no fly zone but violated it anyway. Which isn't all that surprising....
