"It took just six months for the 42 year reign of a dictator to come to a close without one American life taken. Forces on the ground in Libya, America and NATO airpower helped the rebels overthrow Gaddafi. Even though this was brief in the scheme of things, no Americans perished and freedom seems inevitable, Sens. John McCain’s (R-Ariz) and Lindsey Graham’s (R-S.C.) reactions show they would have supported a larger role in the conflict:
But the GOP senators also criticized Obama’s handling of the uprising. For one thing, Obama had limited U.S. military involvement to carrying out the early rounds of airstrikes before pulling back to a support role and refused to send in U.S. ground troops. McCain has said a stronger showing of U.S. air power could have dramatically shortened the conflict.
“Americans can be proud of the role our country has played … but we regret that this success was so long in coming due to the failure of the United States to employ the full weight of our airpower,” McCain and Graham said.
As optimism sets in, Libyans are celebrating outside of the White House, giving thanks to our President. But, right wing Americans are staying silent and the ones that aren't, perhaps should." (ATTENTION Republican Liberals)
The Republican Liberals would certainly have spent more of our money and lives than Democrats could ever spend.
