Since when did the NeoCon Republican War Hawks become pacifist hippie peace-loving doves?

I'm quite happy OBL is dead and in the bellies of fish and I hope Qaddafi joins him soon. It's not about being a pacifist for me, it's the incredible (and pathetic) hypocrisy from the left that makes me shake my head in bemusement. Bush invaded Iraq with the authorization of Congress and the express wording of nearly two dozen U.N. resolutions but the totally ignorant of the country still call it an illegal war. Obama bypasses Congress (and continues to refuse to ask them for authorization) and it's all good as far as his supporters are concerned. You can't have it both ways and expect anyone to respect your point of view.
