To be fair, it is isnt exactly an invasion. We just went in to take him out (he was probably given up by his peers). There's an opposition party that's pro US that's arguably won the last 3 presidential elections waiting to take power.

You don’t even know why you are upset just OMB. You really need to just come out as a Democrat, then come out as queer, and then go join your kind over on DU and leave the men here alone homo.

Now this is closer to Irony. A working class populist calling someone else a welfare queen.

Wish Trump would start this news conference so you assholes could get back on topic.

Not much of an invasion. Trump is proving to everyone that we don't need long, drawn out "conflicts" to solve our problems.

Appreciate the clarification, that does make me feel less wrong and less dumb.

And your point about having a stable opposition party is the main reason I’m not freaked out about this. Venezuela has a chance to go back to a functional democracy if they can avoid/limit in-fighting.

I think reasonable people can disagree about whether this was the right thing for the US to do, but I think we all have a reason to be hopeful at the moment.

Lil Johnny has a sugar momma and a little man complex. He lies because its the only way to feel better about himself.

The end game is what I'd like to see the President explain, and how we will achieve that.

No doubt Maduro is a dictatorial mafia like criminal scum bag whom the average local citizen detests. They can barely purchase daily common food supplies. Some days, none.

As General Powell said, "You Break It You Own It."
