That cost money and Congress didn't even approve it, the UN did.
Eliminating a major terrorist that actually DID harm our country without the loss of a single soldier is a success story. We lost 4,800 lives and wounded another 25,000 looking for wmd`s that didn`t exist. BTW,did anyone go to congress to get approval for our Granada and Panama adventures?

Feel free to refresh my memory as to the GOP`s plan to halt the bleeding of 750,000 jobs per month during the last 5 months of Gomer`s presidency.

At least Grenada had US citizens in harms way and the Organization of American States asked the US to intervene. So does this now mean that Democrats will stop complaining about Grenada and Panama as Obama acts without congress and without US citizens in harms way?

How many U.S. citizens did we put in harms way in Iraq? Unlike Saddam,Gadaffi really committed a terrorist act on the U.S.

Saddam violated the peace treaty from the Gulf War left and right -- including firing on US planes on multiple occasions. Bush took it to congress and congress voted. Democrats in the Senate overwhelmingly voted for it.

Obama on the other hand avoided a vote like the plague. Just like he doesn't want Union certification votes and if they do, the ballot to public and not private so they can be intimidated. Obama -- doesn't like votes?

No, common sense does, because you cant remove money out of the economy, and then pump the exact same money into it and pretend it stimulates.

How are those jobs doing? Solyndra? State and local governments all now laying off because the money was temporary? Democratic idea of success, and then they stand here wondering why they are laughed at..

Reality disagrees. It is inherent within the law passed by congress and was brought up in the debates left and right. Bush did it legally, Obama did not.

Public Law*107 - 243 - Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002
