In case you don't remember, it was your Liberal Cronies who called this a NATO Mission, not a U.S. Mission when conservatives were deriding Obama for starting another war. You folks were saying and doing anything you could to prove that this wasn't Obama's war.

And now you want to give him credit for it?

You're out of your ****ing mind if you think we're buying the BS you folks are peddling.

Lightbulb You're with us or you're with the terrorists.

It's fun watching the radical right twist themselves like pretzels, trying to mentally and emotionally maintain their phony outrage towards the president.

May: "Impeach Obama for getting us involved in Libya!"

August: "Obama had nothing to do with Libya!"

Careful now, wingnuts. Crazy can be contagious.

what's there to credit?

what do we get from libya that we need?

i see our money leaving america to go into somebody's pocket, and i am sure not going to thank ANYBODY for that.

doesn't everyone see the hypocrisy of goldman sachs taking khadafi's money to invest, losing it, and then offering him a stake in the bank? who is zooming whom?

That's the mind of the Conservative.

Ideology trumps facts and more often than not they are willing to insult their own intelligence to espouse their ideas.

Republican Presidential Candidates Refuse to Credit Obama on Libya | The Nation

If you're talking about Iraq or Afghanistan that would be a la Congress. You know....the lawful way of doing it.....the opposite of what Obama has done.

Also, it wasn't long ago that this wasn't Obama's war. It was NATO's. Now all of a suden you think things look like they might be going well and you think we should give Obama credit. Isn't it funny how that works? If I were you I'd wait to see how this change works out before popping the champagne. It just might be a change for worse.

Once again? That implies he's done this now as well as before. Would you care to cite previous examples of this? Of course that's rhetorical since I know this will be another A_Lexus troll thread where you will never return to debate the OP. Keep up the good work!

Kudos to the president for supporting NATO's push to oust Qadaffi.

If you give Obama credit, you must acknowledge that he was in violation of the war powers act. Are you willing to make such a admission?

Sorry you can't have your cake and eat it too. I'll bust out my tiniest violin.
