$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Sixstrings', 'A')nd now, Obama will campaign on the OBL victory when in fact that victory would not be possible without waterboarding intelligence.

Didn't the left run smack dab into the export land model? With the economy as bad as it is, and the people still so unwilling to take the blame for the portion of it that is their fault, the left has nowhere to go with anti-war sentiment. We now have so many fewer choices. We can complain about this and that, but it doesn't get to the real point. There is only so much oil left and we simply cannot have those Arabs using it for themselves rather than selling it to us for a price.

As long as the rebellion in Libya remains simmering militarily the people there will not be able to consume their own oil, especially not at an ever increasing rate. Same goes for Bahrain and Kuwait. Yemen and Syria are different stories. Stable democracies in those countries that sought after exercising some kind of claim on 'Arab' oil before it had a chance to be sold on the open market would be a bad example indeed.

Its all a communist plot.

"grown as tired and jaded as the rest of us."
LOL
Amazing how that fatigue and jadedness timed so precisesely with Obama's election. Surely they could have stirred up a few mass riots, destroying property, picketing Obama's home or something when we went into Libya. I feel so sorry for those poor "tired and jaded" justice seekers. Perhaps the DNC didn't pay as well now that Os in office.

It's because the "anti-war movement" was more about demonizing the Republicans than it was about stopping the war(s).

Same as the "feminists" who cheered Hillary because "we need a woman in the White House", but then promptly turned around and booed Palin when she entered the race.

Or the "cultural feminists" who demonize Christian conservatives (and GW Bush) but give radical Islamists (who treat women like chattel) a free pass.

I could go on, but you get the general idea.

Sadly, it's all about politics.

It was ever thus.
