As for the American public, it’s a new concept for people to wrap their heads around. Is a limited mission something people can understand? Is it something they’ll accept? It’s a little bit like having as one’s ultimate goal getting to kiss your girlfriend by the third date. It’s human nature to have something more ambitious in mind.

‘Barack Obama’s address on Libya’

Because military intervention is like making out with your girlfriend? Because making out with your girlfriend is a little bit like military intervention?

Because what the fuck is up with these analogies?
