Doesn't matter what you support, democrat or republican, their going to do as they please regardless what people want.

What are you going to do about it?

You can't vote them out, because they'll find some new puppets in to continue the charade.

Even among the coalition members there's a growing divide on exactly what the mission is.

Europe divided over Libya mission - Europe - Al Jazeera English
"The international military campaign in Libya has created apparent divisions between coalition leaders carrying out the UN-sanctioned operation and other world powers."

Default Neocons agree with Obama's War

The one and only Bill Kristol seems to approve of Obama's Libya actions. So everyone who supports Obama's Libya actions are agreeing with the neocons. When Obama said he was going to unite everyone, who knew it was going to be the Bush Haters and the Neocons! I'm impressed!

Wow, guess we have a newly minted group of Neocons now!

Discuss!

Apparently, you must know of some liberals that agree with Obama? Most liberal pundits I read, and the ones here, oppose Obama on this.

I know you think you've found some double standard ,but like many things right winger believe, it's all a fantasy.

I'm not surprised at all. The real irony is many liberals who tossed around the term neocon for years (without knowing the meaning) are now supporting this totally neocon operation in Libya.

Not all liberals agree with this disgusting war. I'm very much against it. I couldn't care less about the political party of the president that got us into this illegal conflict.
