Really?

Sooooo....how come we have to be the one's leading the charge?

Because we have the greatest military in the world, that's why. The US can get the job done the quickest and cleanest, and with the fewest casualties.

When you're the best, you're in high demand.

We will get our money back for helping out, but you probably won't ever hear about it. Gaining allies and forming alliances with other countries can pay massive dividends and are hard to put a monetary value on. It's good to have friends, just in case something goes wrong at home.

I don't care if I hear about it or not....but I would like to at least SEE this "re-imbursement" the next time I go to the pump to fill up my truck, the next time I buy a case of Pennzoil 5W-30, etc...

A couple things bother me about this Libyan deployment.

1.......Obama is using the War Powers ACT to do this, yet, he RAILED against Bush for doing the very same thing. BTW.........in Bush 1 and Bush 2 cases, they both ASKED and got approval from Congress first. Clinton and Obama both did nothing to inform congress.........hm.

2.......Obama is WHERE.........he's in Brazil. WTF......

3.......Please Mr Obama. Where is the endgame. What is the Strategy. HOW WILL THIS HELP. All legitimate questions, that were also asked of BUSH??

Funny how Obama is getting a pass.

later,

We will supply the weapons and help the Lybian Rebels overthrow the oppressive dictator. If I am not mistaken some or most of these Lybian rebels fighting Kadafi are Taliban or Al Qada.

Someday we will be picking up our dead soldiers and find that these weapons we supplied have been turned on us. Deja Vu.
