Of all the fail in this OP, this is the most offensive: "No one on DU nor any other Liberal website that I know had any problem with Clinton using cruise missiles to kill Usama Bin Laden"

Seriously, WTF, many of us did and do and have been very vocal about that over the years.

DU wasn't even around back then but you pretend to mind read. The lengths some of you are going to to justify the unjustifiable is mind-boggling.

I trust you'll have no problems when countries choose to forcefully, even violently, retaliate against the terror we rain from their skies and call it fighting terrorism. Especially considering how many "known terrorists" are running loose in our country.

Of all the dishonest, offensive OPs over the last two days, this one takes the cake. Congratulations.
