It's mind numbing.  Can we please have an adult in the White House that's actually managed something before?

It's pathetic.  It seems everyone in the administration with access to the press is selling their own story.

Can't wait to see the "behind the scenes" books when this debacle finally ends.  They're not even pretending to have a coherent message anymore.

My son has been out of the Navy for 2 years, but keeps up with several buddies that are still in.

The other day, after Obama said in front of God and everyone else...."there will be no US boots on the ground in Libya". (paraphrased)

So when partner and I and son were having a discussion about "boots on the ground"...son says "boots are already on the ground in Libya, Mom".

I, in my infinite wisdom....said: "no, Obama promises that no US boots will be on the ground."

Last night....on either Hannity or Greta...it was announced that there are US boots on the ground in Libya.

Tonight, I told my son he was right. His reply? "Mom, I told you there were...I have "inside" sources."

Clinton's lies about BJ's in the Oval Office, may have done some temporary damage to his marriage.

Obama's lies puts our military further into harm possibly resulting in death. And puts the entire United States in further danger from terrorists.

F'n SOB.  :censored:

This is what he gets for trying to talk like a big boy without understanding what the words meant.  Instead of going for the catch-phrase to make himself sound sophisticated, he should've stuck with something that was actually true but less sound-bite-like, for instance "There will be no regular US ground combat forces ashore.'

I can't help but remember how the alphabet networks went apeshit during Reagan's Presidency when they caught some poor bastard US military advisor actually carrying a (Gasp!) RIFLE instead of just a pistol, coming back off a patrol with the platoon he was advising.

After watching the MSM through Bush's 8 years, the total hypocrisy of their current coverage of Obama and Libya is stunning.  The MSM is far too used to people that just believe their BS.  No wonder the TEA party and Sarah Palin scare them so badly.  How dare any Americans not just believe the propaganda they spew?  :argh:

All this BS about "we are there only to protect civilians from Qaddafi's military."

What's he going to come up with when the "rebels" start killing the civilians loyal to Qaddafi?

Newsflash for anyone not sure: If you're going to target anything mobile with a Tomahawk, or want to target something that doesn't move when and if something important is inside, you have to know WHEN and WHERE to target your ordnance.

That means one thing, and one thing only--EYEBALLS.  Satellite intel isn't enough.  It's somewhere between a 99 and 100 percent chance that there are some American forces in Libya, be they Deltas, SEALs, or what have you.

It was mentioned the last couple of days as, "the worst kept secret in Libya."  Oh, and for the record, the USS Florida (in the neighborhood) carries up to 66 SEALs.
