Obama Hurries Home As War Opposition Grows
“The American people and the United States have an interest, first of all, in making sure that where a brutal dictator is threatening his people, and saying he will show no mercy and go door-to-door and hunt people down and we have the capacity under international sanction to do something about that, I think it’s in America’s national interest to do something about that”
President Obama is cutting short his visit to Latin America by a half day as political pressure mounts at home over the U.S. intervention in the Libyan war and the president’s objectives.
Obama, who has previously held that American presidents do not have the legal authority to deploy troops in the absence of an imminent threat to the nation, made his first effort Tuesday to tie the ongoing bombardment of Libya to U.S. national interests.
Obama outlined a new threshold for American military intervention saying that when there is “international sanction” that it was in the national interest “to do something about” a “brutal dictator” who is “threatening his people.”
As far as I am concerned he has been on vacation since he took office, or he has been campaigning. Actually both are true!!
So now it is a vacation? Nice spin Skippy.
See!!! You can teach an old dog new tricks!!! I have been paying attention in class, and like a good liberal, cheating, by writing the answers on my arm.
