Millions of dollars are being spent on bombs dropped on a country to aid revolutionary rebels. The President of the United States has formed a coalition and is calling it a "humanitarian mission" and an effort to "protect American interests". World leaders are debating what should be done about the dictatorial leader. One thing is missing. The young people who protested outside the White House in large, orchestrated numbers with signs reading "No Blood for Oil", "Impeach!" and "De-fund This War!" when President Bush was in charge. New War, new president.
I shouldn't be surprised they are no-shows. We haven't heard a peep out of them about closing down GITMO now that Obama has reneged on that campaign promise. Similarly, we never heard from the feminists who praised then Democrat first lady Hillary Clinton for calling for the world to take a stand against the Taliban in Afghanistan for their enslavement of women, when we toppled the Taliban under Republican President Bush.
Time will tell and the truth will out. And they have. The feminist movement doesn't represent women, it represents women of the Democrat party. Bill Maher's recent sexist comment about Sarah Palin outed them yet again. It wasn't until they had egg on their silent faces that they were forced to issue a cool response. And as for the organized anti-war protests? We their community organizer is a little busy filling his campaign chest, reading teleprompters, golfing and taking vacations. He no longer has time to organize the community.
I question the President's choice of labeling this issue as "humanitarian" when the genocide in Darfur continues. Oh wait, there are no American oil interests there. Where was the humanitarian relief for the protesters who took to the streets of Tehran? I suppose when you are the President of the United States you can pick and choose which lives are more important. It's only your ethics and credibility on the line. Much like the anti-war protesters, whose credibility and legitimacy have been sold to the Obama administration and the Democrat party.
Don't get me wrong, I support this military action in Libya. Just as I supported Iraq, Afghanistan and any other nation trying to transform from a tyrannical dictatorship to a true democracy. And I believe that protecting the interests of the world economies is vital to keeping the free market flowing.
The time and truth have outed President Obama and his activist followers as the opportunists and media whores they are. Using military actions to push their agenda's and to get their man in charge of the purse strings. I can't wait until the 2012 election, which seems to have started with the Presidents campaign commercial last night. Let the campaign begin. And lets see if Obama and the left can hide their true motives again. Fool us once...
