All we'll hear from republicans, though, is whine, whine, and more whine.

6. Can you imagine a republican prez did this, the media would be bending over backwards.
Looking to put him on our currency. The MSM would hail him as the greatest commander-in-chief of the last century.

7. Same guy cheered Bush
And slandered those who opposed the Iraq invasion, he said Cheney's presence comforted him. So perspective. Sully voted foe W and mocked Gore.

9. He seems to have wised up
and has recanted a lot of what he wrote ten years ago. Better to wake up late than never wake up at all.

8. Obama may not be a Republican
But he's sure using their methods as far as the might makes right philosophy, as well as American exceptionalism that celebrates extra-judicial executions of persons deemed very, very bad by a sufficient number or station of people.

I know that hypotheticals are useless, but if the administration killed Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran, would that be acceptable as well?

Scroll down to about 10:15am.

A Tale Of Two Presidents

A reader writes:

Bush and Saddam - One Trillion dollars and thousands of US lives.

Obama and Qaddafi - One Billion dollars and zero US lives.

Meep Meep indeed.

And this time, the Arab world loves us as well.

To rid the world of Osama bin Laden, Anwar al-Awlaki and Moammar Qaddafi within six months: if Obama were a Republican, he'd be on Mount Rushmore by now.


calimary's note: No Fucking KIDDING!
