No wonder Europeans laugh at gullible Americans. Only I thought there might be slightly less gullible Americans on a site like Daily Kos.
The outrage - OUTRAGE! - of some on this site over Obama kicking some ass in Libya without - GASP! - first consulting congress (sorry, that's Congress) is embarrassing.
Do you people honestly think Barack Obama would have got fifty miles within a chance to be groomed and selected as a Democratic candidate had he not planned on toeing the American line on Mideast policy? My God, kissing the ring at AIPAC wasn't a bold enough message for you people? Incredible.
Of course Obama is going to continue what Bush started in the Mideast, because Obama is following the same playbook. If anything, Obama will (will, hell, has) escalate what Bush started, since he can do it under cover as a Democrat and there won't be any protests (heard from the anti-war movement lately?)
Grow up, people. These are POLITICIANS and this is AmerIsrael we're talking about.
Let's get a little reality based here.
And honestly, it may not be such a bad thing for Obama to go in and kick ass in Libya. I’m not so sure I want a psycho dressed like Michael Jackson running a key Mideast country like Libya.
