What a load of hot, steaming crap.

The Libyan intervention was not a war, it was simply a successful intervention to save lives.

There was no declaration of war to invade Grenada. there was no declaration of war in Afghanistan. There was no declaration of war in Vietnam. There was no declaration of war in Korea.

Racist crap.

Hot, steaming crap.

Why would criticizing Obama for military actions without congressional approval be racist crap, when as you have shown there have been many previous Presidents, going all the way back to Truman who never bothered with having Congress declaring war.

Is it that it is racist because Obama is Black? Are Black presidents to be held to a different standard?

It is racist crap because Truman, Eisenhower, Reagan, Olebush and Juniorbush were not faced with impeachment on the same issue. They were all White.

The intervention in Libya was well done and successfully accomplished its objectives. Obama is Black

You cannot say the same for the wars in Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq.

Korea was, by any definition, a draw.

There was no declaration of war to invade Grenada.
there was no declaration of war in Afghanistan.
There was no declaration of war in Vietnam.
There was no declaration of war in Korea.

President Obama did not seek approval of the Congress in the attacks on Libya.

Korea and Vietnam were both before the War Powers Act.

President Bush 1 had Congressional Approval before Desert Storm. (Jan 12, 1991)

President Bush 2 did seek approval of both houses of Congress on both Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts.

On October 10, 2002, the House of Representatives voted 296-133 to authorize President Bush
to use force against Iraq. Later that evening, the Senate joined the House in supporting the measure
by a vote of 77-23.

In Grenada President Reagan's actions were "legal," since section 4(a)(1) of the War Powers Act
gives the executive a 60-90 day time limit on troop action (without further congressional approval.
All US forces were out of Grenada within that time frame.

Obama's "impeachment" will go the way of Juniorbush's.

There were much better reasons to impeach Juniorbush, who mislead the country into an unnecessary war and then screwed things up horribly.

And yet, nothing happened.

So let me get this straight....
When they try to impeach Bush it's not racism,
but when they try to impeach Obama it's racist.

I think XO probably forgot about all the impeach Bush talk for illegal warmongering.

Kucinich and Nader have both called for his Obama's impeachment and we know they can't be racist because they are liberals and it is psychologically impossible for liberals to be racist.

Or so we were told.
