Why is it the left & Obama are always late to the scene?
So...Now that President Obama's doing it, you're vindicated?
Thought Republicans automatically pooped everything the President does?
Must admit, watching news yesterday leading up to the President's annoucement, I was shocked to hear such agreement from the big 3 cable news outlets. I don't think I've ever heard they so unanimous in their position on an issue - intervene.
Problem is, ok let's say we stop this potential genocide, what about the ones we didn't intervene in like in Darfur? What about the next time? Is it really our role in the world to play traffic cop? Never gonna get the Muslim world to play nicely with each other so wouldn't it be better to let em have it? Did far away countries come get in our business during our own civil war?
If you prevent people from fighting forcing peace on them all you do is make that hate submerge and fester. Then when it explodes again it's many times worse and if it reemerges after they've gotten WMD...
