Oh Give Me a Break

This article purports to reveal our "secret" war effort in Libya. I looked forward to seeing just what we did. Imagine my disappointment.

Good grief, if you didn't know we did every one of the things the author "reveals" you just weren't paying attention. (OK, I grant I didn't know one of our destroyers shot down loyalist Scud missiles--that's pretty cool.)

And of course, this is being spun to justify crippling cuts to our defense budget to solve our budget deficit. It's transparent, to be sure, but I won't say it won't work.

Oh, and if it was "secret," how many of the president's still-swooning supporters will liken this to Nixon's secret war in Cambodia and condemn him for it rather than praise him for his initiative?
