They don't think that counts. They still think Saddam didn't have any WMD's. That gas he used and all the dead Kurds were just a movie set prop I guess. It was also a big rumor that his sons would kidnap young girls off the streets, rape them then kill them. Not to even mention the Olympic atheletes that were killed for not winning. They also don't believe Saddam was really taking all that Oil for Food money for himself and building massive palaces while his people starved. Oh and all those UN saction violations never happened either, nor did the Iraqi's shoot at our planes in the NFZ. NAHHHHHHHH, none of that happened, no reason at all to have done something about him....

If the definition of bad dictator is killing his own people, then Gaddafi is just as much a bad dictator as Saddam. And Gaddafi has known links to terrorism, ask Scotland.

You can't say we should have taken Saddam, not opposed that, and now oppose Libya.

I think so also, but many on the left were attacking the Bush administration for their "military action" in Iraq. This makes them credible. But you and many others are just now attacking a psuedowar, but your main point of concern isn't the term "war", or the money spent, its that a Democratic President that you don't like is doing it. Because you were silent under the Bush administration.

thats your opinion, not fact. how do you know i wasnt silent during the protests? you dont. youre fabricating 'facts' to suit your agenda.

this isnt a psuedowar, its a war. dont sugar coat the truth and try to weasel out of it. the fact is we dont belong there since this is a UN-led operation and the US has no real reason to intervene unless the UN asks us AND if our congress allows it.

time is up at midnight. obama will be on the record then as defying the WPR and will have to answer for it. hopefully we can get an impeachment out of it. wont be the first time a democrat was impeached for lying...

Where you demonstrating the Iraq war?

Simple question, yes or no. At 59 days were you saying that the congress needs to declare war?

irrelevant. your attempt to spin this into a right vs left will not work on me.

obama is about to break the law and should be called on it.

also, bush had congressional funding AND approval, something obama doesnt (yet.. maybe...)
