VietNam. 40,000 US deaths
Libya. 0 US deaths
Until you start counting people on the other side, try and include civilians too... Something tells me you dont care if they die because maaaybe the color of their skin or something fucking retarded like that?
Youre a real humanitarian RW, lol.
Either way you cut it there is no comparison in scope. Show me hundreds of thousands of Libyan deaths and then explain to me how it is the same as Vietnam
RW, your liberal hypocrisy is seriously funny.The only rightwing outrage that would be worse is if Obama had refused to assist the Libyan freedom fighters
You need to just run away from this issue......You're making yourself look like a complete fool on a couple o' threads pertaining to this issue.
Just sayin'.
Republicans are hypocrites....just sayin'
You would be howling about how soft Obama was if he allowed the Libyan forces to wipe out the rebels
The Right wing is more interested in political capital than doing what is right

Again you describe yourself but try and make it seem ok you are the way you are "because others do it."
You have to be a plant from the right to make the left look stupid.

Really? Then what do you call it if not a war? Are we going to get into another one of these bullshit arguments about semantics when there is no need? There WILL be casualties as that is what happens in a war and make no mistake this is the beginning of the next war. Before we even finish the other 2 we have going on none the less. What kills me is that you are consistently complaining at the double standard that you claim is on the right while wallowing on your own double standard here. Tell us what makes you on OB side in this was and not in Iraq? Tell us the major differences other than casualties. If the number of killed American soldiers is the only thing then you are stuck in a hard place as there will be casualties coming. It is a sad day when the American people believe that we can go around the world using our military to enforce what we want and somehow think that we are magically protected from any of our own people from being killed. That is not the case anywhere and will not be the case in Libya ether.No. Outrage over going to war without congressional approval. The left bitched about Bush going to Iraq even though it did sign off, but yet you defend obama's war?Outrage?
Outrage over a UN endorsed NATO executed mission?
Outrage that no us soldiers have been killed?
Outrage over supporting freedom fighters resisting a hated dictator?
The real outrage is Conservatives trying to equate Libya to Iraq
Think much?
Once again. a feeble attempt to equate the Iraq invasion to the Libyan military assistance. Only the rightwing would try to call this a "war"
The funny thing here is that you would be defending him had he not went into Libya. Pointing out the hypocrisy is not very effective when you are DOING THE EXACT SAME THING while pointing it out. All Bushs wars = BAD, all Obamas wars = good.RW, your liberal hypocrisy is seriously funny.The only rightwing outrage that would be worse is if Obama had refused to assist the Libyan freedom fighters

Again, really? Have you ever heard the bullshit that comes out of the mouths of the left pundits? Try listening to Norman Goldman or the crazy chick from New York. They are every bit as bad as Beck or Hannity are. But dont let the facts obscure your beautiful partisan view of the left.The right are the masters of outrage. False and real.
the left just cannot compare on the Beck/Hannity international outrage scale.

Rumsfeld: I Doubt Six Months

Rumsfeld: Under $50 billion
Jan. 10, 2003Donald Rumsfeld, Secretary of Defense
Well, the Office of Management and Budget, has come up come up with a number that's something under $50 billion for the cost. How much of that would be the U.S. burden, and how much would be other countries, is an open question.
Rumsfeld: Five days or five months, but it certainly isn't going to last longer
Nov. 15, 2002Donald Rumsfeld, Secretary of Defense
"The idea that it's going to be a long, long, long battle of some kind I think is belied by the fact of what happened in 1990," he said on an Infinity Radio call-in program. "Five days or five weeks or five months, but it certainly isn't going to last any longer than that."
Wolfowitz: A country that can really finance its own reconstruction
Mar. 27, 2003Paul Wolfowitz, Deputy Defense Secretary
Theres a lot of money to pay for this that doesnt have to be U.S. taxpayer money, and it starts with the assets of the Iraqi people and on a rough recollection, the oil revenues of that country could bring between $50 and $100 billion over the course of the next two or three years Were dealing with a country that can really finance its own reconstruction, and relatively soon.

Perle: days or weeks -- this will be a short war

George W. Bush Quotes: Iraq
Thanks for the time and costs.
Where's the quote where Bush claimed there would be no dead.
Sorry only I only post one link on a topic per thread.
LMAO!Sorry only I only post one link on a topic per thread.
And that's if we're lucky.
Normally I settle for a single on-topic post from you per thread, regardless of any support material.

He meant the voters I believe... If you think for a second that Republicans were all about the nation building under Bush (28-32% approval rating) feel free to delete your account as you offer nothing but BS here.
All I know is, I love your avatar.I am sure everyone remembers Obama saying that our involvement in Libya would last days, not weeks. The 60 day legal timeline for him having the military involved without Congressional approval is approaching and we are still there. What is he saying now?
The U.S. and NATO will continue military operations in Libya as long as Moammar Gadhafi keeps attacking his people, the White House said Friday as top U.S. officials met in Washington with leaders of the Libyan opposition. President Barack Obama's national security adviser, Tom Donilon, met at the White House with a delegation from the Libyan Transitional National Council, including top representative Mahmoud Jibril. While the U.S. stopped short of recognizing the Council as Libya's legitimate government, as France and Italy have done, the White House said in a statement following the meeting that the Council is a "credible interlocutor of the Libyan people."
Obama did not meet with the opposition leaders.
The meetings come as a deadline nears on the 60-day window Obama has to keep the U.S. military involved in the Libya campaign without congressional approval. While lawmakers do not appear likely to enforce the limits outlined in the War Powers Resolution, U.S. officials said they are looking for ways to keep U.S. action in Libya in compliance.

What happens if we have a full blown constitutional crisis and no one cares?
Did anyone believe him when he said that in the first place? I sure as hell didn't
