Former President Obama went to war with Libya, and later instituted regime change as a result. However, the war went on for months which then required Congress to agree to the war going past the 60 day mark. But President Obama refused to consult with Congress as he ignored the War Powers Act requiring Congressional approval. Obama glibly said, it is not really a war I don't have to consult Congress

President Trump, on the other hand, has not gone to war with anyone, yet Legacy media and the Left and the Swamp and all of academia are screaming the Trump is a Nazi, fascist King from hell but said NOTHING when Obama went to war violating US law?

It does beg the question, how effective is propaganda when such propaganda is hypocritical and half retarded?


Anyone?

it was a civil war coup.

Why did the Left hate Gaddafi so much?

Any ideas?

The people of Libya had a much higher standard of living than any other people in Africa.

And could you imagine how Trump would be treated if he were doing the same?

I’m not sure what the left feel about him, but he had American blood on his hands.

Obama was in over his ears

He certainly did. And the West pressured him to give up in WMD program, which he later did.

It seemed he was trying to "behave" for once after some of his terrorist exploits against the West in the past.

Then the UN sent Obama in to take him out after giving him a Nobel Peace prize as a down payment to do the dirty work of those in Europe who wanted him gone.

Must have been an oil thingy.

Qhaddafi had to go. The democrats had qhaddafi assinated because qhaddafi was the lending bank of Africa.

The world bank and the international monetary fund told the democrats to kill qhaddafi si they would have no competition lending money

Libya was 100% on Ubercunt. Don't know entirely why the piece of shit did it, but she did --

Nonsense. We never went to war in Libya under Obama. There was no US led invasion force like we used in the action against Afghanistan and Iraq.

The UN Security Council authorized a no-fly zone and the use of "all necessary means" to protect civilians during the Libyan civil war against Muammar Gaddafi.

So, it wasn't a war, eh?

It sure was for Gaddafi.



I guess when you sit in the Oval Office free from bombs and threats to your life like Obama did, you don't really think of it as a war.

People in your own party even disagreed at the time idiot.

But then, Obama only picked fights with people who could not fight back.

Apparently, this crap fools enough of the leftist base and all of the MSM to declare it a success.

How does one measure the success of propaganda?

Election results maybe?

I never said it wasn't a war. As was pointed out it was an ongoing civil war. You said Obama went to war with Libya. He didn't. Since the end of WWII we're had many foreign military actions and only a few rose to the level of a war, and none officially declared because Congress has no balls. Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq.

Do you weep for the poor misunderstood Muammar? You know the one that Raygun rightly bombed the shit out of, in prime time no less......

Going to war without declaring war is meaningless to me.

The mental gymnastics to excuse behavior within the Left so that they don't have to take responsibility for their actions is awe inspiring.

And yes, Vietnam was a war as well, even though LBJ and Nixon pretended it wasn't.

How does one measure the success of propaganda?

By the degree it is mistaken as legitimate news.

The propaganda is for their dembots, that will believe any lie

I guess the goal is to get as many folks on your side as you can get, because it makes your task easier the more working with you.

It makes sense, so no matter how effective it may or may not be is besides the point.

Apparently any military action is a war to you, not just an invasion force and a sustained occupation.

Congress abdicated it's responsibility to declare war. After we got the bomb. Now it's a AUMF.
