T^T That's what the press release said, Termy, and that's the reasoning he has to own. Firm was right on the head of the matter with the wmd comparison. How many US casulaties have occured in the Libyan operation? Is 0 too high a price to be paid to be rid of the guy responsible for this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockerbie_bombing and this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Fort And this: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/northern_ireland/1482426.stm That`s the issue that got me upset during disaster-Iraq. For months and years ronald dumbsfeld kept sending our GIs their to die and get maimed there, by the thousands. And for what? And rich and his ilk didn`t seem to have any problem with that.rich said a number of times that it didn`t bother him. But here,with Libya,he seems to be most animated.Thread after thread on this one subject(most dying from dis-interest)alone. He claims the difference is "legal". I think,tho he`s not been to clear about why we should all be up in arms about Libya. The difference for me and most Americans is not who`s in charge (dem or con) but rather,.... is our military going after our enemies? In Iraq,no. In fact we(shrub) hanged one of the most affective terrorist-killers in the middle-east. In Afghanistan and near there,yes. In Libya,yes. In Yemen,yes. Yemen is where one of the terrorist attacks against us that cons forgot about happened, the Cole bombing. Our president is taking the fight directly to our enemy`s doorstep. The OP and article is just fear mongering and hoping for problems,so that neo-con-clowns can then say,"told ya so". The basic issue that drives rich and his war monger friends presently, is trying to get vindication over Iraq,Abu-ghraib,torturing false confessions,tricking us into war there,the thousands of GIs killed and the tens of thousands of our GI`s maimed and all our money spent(a trillion) for NOTHING. Their angst comes from all the guilt and embarrassment associated with shrub and Iraq. At every possible opportunity they get,they try to vindicate themselves. Remember when bin-laden was killed,they leaked a claim that bin-laden was found with info gotten during torture.Untrue but most importantly,completely self serving and indicative of their guilt over making the US a torture nation. The cons going after the President on Libya aren`t doing it because they like the lockerbie bombers all that much. They are doing it because they hate our president,all that much.It`s purely political hackery. Most normal folks don`t see our security as a left right thing. And some others........ see everything through a left-right lens,tying all logic and thoughts to that narrow prism. rich and the cool-aid drinkers ironically think that support for President Obama`s actions is partisan. When it`s their senseless and meaningless criticisms that are partisan and politically driven drivel.
