U.S. GETTING SUCKED INTO LIBYA?

Reports yesterday morning were that the Libyan rebels had lost a lot of ground and were getting into serious trouble.

COMMENTS:

If the rebels lose and Gaddafi stays in power, the U.S. will be sorely embarrassed. There was already serious talk about providing the rebels with weapons and on the ground training. If Syria or Iran or Russia provides Gaddafi with weapons and support, what then? It seems almost a certainty that we are going to be there a very long time, with more American military lives at stake. Whether we are under NATO command or under our own command is a moot question; we’re in charge of the NATO troops. So, we are now in another war and, once again, it is a war that we are not committed to win and that our President did not have the proper credentials to get us involved in.

TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:

Q. What do you make of John McCain defending Obama for acting in Libya while not consulting with Congress? (Anna ~ Las Vegas, NV)
A. That’s pure bull. Obama could have at least pulled leaders of both parties into the Oval Office; the fact that he didn’t do at least that speaks to his intent to disobey the law. That McCain is defending him is one of the many reasons I didn’t like him running for President, either. This country needs a real leader.

Q. Will California’s new governor, Jerry Brown, be able to deal with their severe budget crisis? (Tyrone ~ Yuma, AZ)
A. Already high taxes and a lousy business climate have caused an exodus of people and businesses to other states, consequently reducing the tax base at the same time. Brown wants to make some token spending cuts and add more taxes. The Republicans are refusing to cooperate and Brown has called off budget talks.What do you think? 

Q. Why did that escaped snake in New York create such a news frenzy? (Simone ~ Palo Cedro, CA)
A. Because it’s not that often that you see a snake outside of Washington, D.C.

“When we were at peace, Democrats wanted to raise taxes. Now there's a war, so Democrats want to raise taxes. When there was a surplus, Democrats wanted to raise taxes. Now that there is a recession, Democrats want to raise taxes.” ~ Ann Coulter
