Didn't big mouth THE Obama "In Debt We Trust!" also say he was going to
end the war? Oh well, just another liar politician with no brains, just
lies.


number of troops in iraq when bush was pres

150,000

number under obama

50,000

Well he just dumped a billion or more debt-dollars into Libya.


which comes out of DoD money already spent. and he's dumping the war
onto the french and norwegians.

let them run it.



This is just part of the stimulus package. Raytheon will have to
replace all of those fired Tomahawks and the sub contractors spread
out across the US. They may even get Boing/MD to build a few if they
still have a contract. That gets a few more congressional districts in
the action.

This "dumping it on the French" is a nice subterfuge politically in
the US but the French do not have that good a reputation in North
Africa. This could blow up in our face.
I am sure Qdaffy is already spinning this as the European
recolonization of Africa and if that catches hold, we could hit a
wall.
Politically, this is a lot more complicated than simply huddled masses
yearning to be free.
These dictators may have been nasty SOBs but they were our nasty SOBs
They pretty much agreed not to oppress anyone outside their borders,
sell the west cheap oil and leave Israel alone.
We really can't afford to lose any of those bargains.


Qadaffi-lover, eh?
Sure, you can go against the Arab street.
Maybe strafe and bomb the Libyan "freedom-fighters" too.
See how many AQ recruits that gets you.
You're living in the past.
The times they are a-changin'.
