Why do we let liberals start wars? Obama started the wa in Libya over 4 months ago and this war, which was supposed to be over in a couple of weeks is still ongoing.
From rian.ru: (from Russia because our lazy ass media won't cover it): NATO’s military operation against Libya, conducted mainly by the armed forces of the US, France and Britain, is speeding up the formation of a new system of international relations. At the same time the war serves as a firing ground for testing the strategy of the United States Africa Command (USAFRICOM) in real combat situation as well as the efficiency of new weapons …
US and NATO strategists were wrong counting that the military campaign would be completed in several weeks. Under resolution № 1973 of the UN Security Council, no-fly zone over the air space of Libyan Arab Jamahiriya was created, embargo on weapon supplies was introduced and the Libyan assets were frozen. The operation in Libya which was initially to be completed by June 27 was prolonged by 90 days till the end of September.
There have been reports in mass media that a wide-scale ground operation in Libya under the US command is being planned and the troops are expected to be deployed there by October. The Libyan war is the fifth in addition to four wars the US is conducting in Iraq, Afghanistan Pakistan and Yemen… The goals of the US permanent presence in Libya are to punish Gaddafi for his refusal to join USAFRICOM, to drive the Chinese away from Libya and to cut the access to oil resources for Europeans.

So, we may use ground troops in October? Well, I don't know, but since we have a bumbling president, who acts like Chevy Chase in Saturday Night Live back when SNL was actually funny, and a media that is brain dead, this report may be accurate.
More from the article: But NATO underestimated the moral and psychological state of the Libyan troops. The leadership of the US and NATO supposed that after the first strikes the army of Gaddafi will be defeated and the Libyan soldiers would begin to yield themselves prisoners, but the army of Gaddafi managed to keep its combat effectiveness. The Libyan army in March and the Libyan army in July of 2011 are two different armies in terms of tactics, effectiveness and courage. Those soldiers learn very fast. The task on the liquidation of the Libyan combat power remained unfulfilled. NATO and the US failed to gain full control over the coastline and the Western part of Libya.
This is what happens when you put a community organizer in charge of the military. A person who has no idea about the military and how it operates. An intellectually challenged narcissist president who thinks he is smarter than the average bear who thinks that if you use sanctions and and bombs from drones and airplanes, you will win a war. Well, Obama was proved wrong and now we maybe sending in ground troops.
Obama cannot let the Libyan war keep going on until the 2012 election because he will look weak, so he will have to up the ante and that means ground troops.
And Obama still has not gone for the War Power Act.
Worst president ever.
