Yes, it's THAT obvious, and very saddening to see people who claim to be patriots use a dictator's death (who murdered Americans and never paid for his crime, while thumbing his nose at us) to attack their opponents. I don't remember Saddam downing any airliners loaded with Americans, but the US right-wing wanted his blood anyway.

It's hilarious watching these people contort themselves and trample all over their own blood-thirsty legacy in a bid to attack the people they hate most - their fellow Americans.

Did y'all whine when Reagan ordered the attacks on Libyan warplanes or Qaddafi's compound? Nooooope. Just celebrations. Very interesting...
We didn't join the shooting gallery because of a plane being shot down in 1988 did we? No the great orator said it was to protect the innocent civilians. I suggest you keep up on why we are there according to the president.

There is no statute of limitations for any terrorist who kill Americans. Obama has finished the job that Reagan, both Bushes, and Clinton failed to do. If one of your relatives had been on that flight, you'd be dancing in the streets.

I'm not a liberal, but if Bush would have got Bin Laden, the ton of other Al Qaeda leaders he's taken out, and now Gaddafi (without spending a bunch of money and without putting our troops at risk), they would have held a ticker tape parade. Hasn't that been the point of the last 10 years--to take out crazy people who are a real threat, or who want to hurt us? I don't care if you like Obama or not--he deserves credit where credit is due. If some of you can't give him that, there's something wrong with you.

I probably would be. Nor am I a defender of Momar. Good riddance to him. What gets me is why all the smoke and mirrors? Why not say hey this bastard shot down our citizens so I'm gonna kill him? Why all the whining about innocent civilians? Or why not tell us the real reason?

I think the point is everything Bush did was wrong but when Obama does the same thing it's the right thing to do now. The swooners are just showing their true colors.
