Palin's Mentor Bill Kristol calls for U.S. ground forces in Libya The operation to create a no-fly zone in Libya has just begun, but already conservative Fox News pundit Bill Kristol is wishing the U.S. would send in ground troops "sooner rather than later." U.S. President Barack Obama said Saturday the "Odyssey Dawn" operation launched under a UN Security Council resolution was a "limited military action," unlike the regime change aims of the war against Iraqi president Saddam Hussein. He pledged no U.S. troops would be deployed on the ground. Fox News Chris Wallace asked Kristol Sunday if it was a mistake to limit the mission in Libya. "Let's talk about the mission," Wallace began. "You heard Admiral Mullen, earlier in the show, say his orders are clear: protect the civilians, don't overthrow Gaddafi. That's not the point. Is that a mistake? Can we live with Gaddafi in any sort of power? He can create a lot of trouble." "No, we cannot leave Gaddafi in power," Kristol agreed. "And we won't leave Gaddafi in power." "The immediate military mission, Admiral Mullen correctly described but the political goal is to remove Gaddafi and ultimately military assets will serve that political goal."

They're in a Vulcan mind-meld with the neo-lib chickenhawks at the Daily KOZ. "You know that peace can only be won, if we blow them all to kingdom come". ~Country Joe and the Fish
Why wouldn't they be? They are the same people.
America is FUCKED. Since WW2, we have been involved in all these BS international wars/conflicts for nothing and lost all of them. NOONE CAN NAME ONE FUCKING WAR OR MILITARY ENGAGEMENT THAT AMERICA HAS ACTUALLY WON FOR THE LAST 60 YEARS BEYOND WW2 AND EVEN THAT IS QUESTIONABLE. As a Vietnam vet, I know. BTW, I think I am the only poster that posts my feelings about these wars; you can click on my nick.
You're an emoting girlyman.

GO FUCK YOURSELF. You are one of the lowest whale turds at the bottom of the ocean. The only reason I have decided to make a post to you is that you have no character, no moral fiber, no backbone, no capability of expressing yourself and beyond all else, I regard you as a cretin.
