It appears we are trying to follow the concept of many of my overseas clients of "leading from behind". But the puppetmaster concept typically implies that we wouldn't be that visible in these operations. Apparently that hasn't gone particularly well.

Barack Obama wrote:"To brush aside America's responsibility as a leader and — more profoundly — our responsibilities to our fellow human beings under such circumstances would have been a betrayal of who we are," Obama said. "Some nations may be able to turn a blind eye to atrocities in other countries. The United States of America is different. And as president, I refused to wait for the images of slaughter and mass graves before taking action."

That is a very good point. Also, for a minute, I was thinking Barack Obama became a FlameFan member when you quoted him.

Truthfully, I wouldn't be surprised if we went into Venezuela at some point by 2020. We seem to go after places that have some black gold/Texas Tea. And as long as we maintain bases and troops in both Iraq and Afghansistan, an attack on Iran is not out of the realm of possibility. I honestly believe that if Iraq hadn't become the quagmire that it did, Bush would've gone into Iran.

It's funny, all this seemed so important at one time.

So Obama is required by law to cease and desist all military action within a few days unless we declare war or Congress issues a resolution. Think that'll happen, or will the administration just ignore federal law like they always do?

And I always knew Gadahfi would just wait this out and stay in power. This whole thing was just absurd.

Well, it appears that Republicans and Democrats agree! The Constitution is Unconstitutional

I think it's really funny how Republicans are bringing up the War Powers Act... when they were perfectly okay with letting Bush ignore it.

Personally, I find the War Powers Act to be unconstitutional.
