To a great many Americans, President Obama’s response to the Libyan crisis has been puzzling. First, dithering. No response. The White House claimed “scheduling problems” for the president’s no-show. Then, wimpy calls for Libyan government restraint and an end to the violence, never mentioning the “mad-dog” tyrant by name. Then, finally, following the lead of normally-reluctant-to-do-anything-whatsoever Europeans, Obama declared “time for Gaddafi to go.” Then, military moves with warships. Then, Secretary Clinton says we must wait for the UN and move only in an internationally coordinated way to aid anti-Gaddafi forces. Now, Obama’s director of national intelligence tells Congress (and the entire world) that Gaddafi will win and the rebels will lose.
Still, the blood flows at Gaddafi’s orders. News leaked out nearly two weeks ago that desperate rebels were begging the U.S. for military intervention. “Send Bush,” they pleaded!
Meanwhile, back at the White House, where the cowboy is no longer in charge, President Obama held a Motown soiree, danced the night away, and a day later served a sumptuous lunch to the nation’s governors while giving them lots of unasked-for advice. Instead of meeting reporters head-on to talk about the Libyan crisis, Obama sent out his new press secretary to fumble the ball. Then, Obama met with the president of Mexico, again, and, no doubt, offered to sue a couple more states. Obama took one question from the American press and it was something to do with an NFL union dispute. Now, the president is off on the campaign trail and planning his basketball party.
Confusing, to say the least. Libya? What?
Sentient Americans are left wondering whether President Obama fully intends to keep the mad-dog Gaddafi in power — no matter what.

Send Bush? Apparently they've forgotten that Bush–the first American president to have a diplomatic relationship with someone Reagan called a "mad dog"–was the one who revived Gaddafi's standing in the world, perhaps in part to use him as a hired killer during the Iraq War. http://www.businessinsider.com/qaddafi-bush-and-t…
James i find your post very amusing & confusing! Can it be as usual you wrote it with your liberal far left bias? Truly James you need a vacation!
Are you an idiot your own liberal democrats were in on going to war in Iraqi and now you big jerk want to blame only Bush.I don't see you critizing DAN Obuma for keeping us in Afghanistan in a war we couldn't possibly win when those ragheads love killing one another but Old Dan has better things to do, make out his basketball picks and golf he should go golfing in Japan to the closest links near the radiation leaks.This is for Mc Pherson
"I don't see you critizing DAN Obuma for keeping us in Afghanistan"
Then you haven't paid attention–no great surprise. Of course Obama didn't start either war.
He is amusing isn't he just like Bill Mahr Idon't understand why he has so much hatred towards Palin and conservative women.He should come out of the closet.I know I never listen to or watch any propoganda spewed by the left and write just to pissoff the left like he does to the right.Goes to show what kind of radical teacher he was.
I don't hate her; I even thought she'd make a good choice for McCain's VP. Obviously I was wrong about that.
Hello! They all have one thing in common: They hate the Anglo-Saxon, who actually is the real Israel by the seed of Joseph(Gen. 48:16), particularly England and America, but I also must include Judah, their brother! However, next come Jacob's trouble because our women(remember the story of Eve?) have put over the real Israel(America) the forbidden foreigner of Deuteronomy 17:15! America has had numberous Anti-Christs as Presidents before(i.e., Teddy Roosevelt, Wilson, FDR, Carter, but now they have the Anti-Christ of Revelation over them! Watch! And, it may just start in the fall of this year by a planned Marxist manifesto mandated economic collapse! It is written that the FIRST(Cain) shall be LAST and the LAST(Seth) will be FIRST! Watch!
Ah, Vic–we've missed you.
Thanks, James. I've been around, but just not commenting much.
I must agree Victor has been missed! Unlike yourself!
Actually Beck connected the dots over 2 weeks ago. Rev. Wright, Farrakhan, and Gaddafi are all connected and have personal relationships. Obama would being going against Rev. Wright's buddy to intervene.. Doesn't anyone notice, Obama is slow to respond to the real bad boys (Iran and Libya) in the neighborhood while betraying countries that have been helpful to America…such as Egypt, has been antagonistic to Israel, fought with Saudi, etc. It appears Obama is on the side of the bad guys.
… and what do you see NEW about all this? Nothing. It's exactly what you would expect. Remember, Obama attended church with Rev. Wright for over twenty years. Have you forgotten that Wright studied "Islam" in his advanced studies? Have you forgotten that this very same Wright,
joined by the Nation of Islam leader, Louis Farrakhan, travelled to LIbya … and VISITED with Mohammar Quadafi? Why? What did they discuss? Who paid for this trip? Who knows the whys, where's, sicussions and plans made during that trip. Does anyone YET see, we have a problem with who was elected as President of our United States of America? Anyone?
Derek I am glad you brought this up, type Nation of islam 1996 in anywhere on your search bar. it will give you Farrakhan's speech. Quote "God is not going to give the Japanese the honor of destroying America, and he's not going to give the honor of destroying America to the Europeans He has reserved it for the muslims and we will do it from the inside. At that time he had already discovered the impostor at down with America Rallies in Chicago. Quadaffi wanted to give Farakhan 5 million bucks to start a cell here in the States but the State Dept blocked it. I believe that is the money that put barak through Harvard, on food stamps you remember, any way that must have been where he came up with the money to go on his own mid east tour. After which time he changed his name from Barry to a muslim name. It had to have costed a fortune to fly to all those countries… especially on food stamps. Anyway this is the reason that he hasn't said anything to his friend….It's kinda hard to bite the hand that fed him. Years ago I watched it on the news a few houres after he made his speech standing beside Quadaffi in front of a giant staged crowd and man I'm tellin you it sure didn't sit well with me. There was talk about banning him from ever coming back to the U.S. but I guess the people in his church must have thrown a fit.
Barack Hussein has never been and never will be a LEADER> H does not know how??
This usurper sure likes to party at our expense. I mean, even Hillary doesn't want a second
term with him. She's probly just as sick of him as we are. Possibly he doesn't give her answers
either. What do WE know behind those closed doors? I have a suspicion they are controlling
the floor with mind control. (meaning the congress, senate, etc) I don't claim to know the ins and
outs of all this foreign policy but if someone would ask me……let them all at it and kill each other.
Let's stay out of it. None of our business. We have our own oil, we don't need them. And they
don't need to come here at all.
"perhaps in part to use him as a hired killer during the Iraq War. "James this is over the line"
Lol! James/Alias Ireuel ! Do you really think that people on this site are so unintelligent as to not be able to see what you are up to? Grow up! Get a life! Only a loser would dedicate himself as much as you do to such a losing cause.
We know the guy died in Libyan custody under suspicious circumstances, after we sent him there. And we know the Bush administration used extraordinary rendition to countries where people could be hidden and tortured. And we know Bush supported the use of torture. So it's not me who is "over the line."
As you well know, Bush also lied repeatedly. And I'll stop criticizing him when we're done paying for the stupid Iraq War that he lied us into–or I would except for the fact that that won't happen until long after you and I are dead.
