Freepers lamenting the passing of Gadaffi
Obama wanted him dead so he could hand lybia over to his radical islamic buds.

Gadaffi was no nice guy, but he and his all-girl guards and bizarre costumes are going to look pretty good to Libyans after a couple of months of Islamist dictatorship. And that’s what’s coming, as Obama and his minions are well aware.

I think the Obama people are expecting a huge bump in the polls off of this, something he’s hoping he can keep up and stable until Nov 2012. In other words, he’s hoping this will revitalize his campaign... except no one really cares. It’s hard to get support from Americans for this when none of them (including members of Congress) have any idea or were given any justification whatsoever for Obama’s illegal war there. Yet another failure by the president who yesterday was telling Jake Tappert just how amazing he is as president.

The people rising up to boot out a megalomaniacal, tyrannical ruler !!!

Perhaps Obama and the leftoids were right - it does look as if we could learn something from these foreign cultures.

Obama to hold a press conference in a few moments to explain how he was actually on the missioin that got em’

Along with the names and addresses of all the soldiers that were on the mission.

NATO and foreign insurgents got rid of Gadhafi, the people didn't rise up.

So what was the reason Obama wanted him taken out again? Was it the hijackings back in the day, did he play a part in terror attacks or resources (linked to our national security), did he put the underwear on the Christmas bomber?

What was the rationale besides R2P?

I’m no fan of him. I see Christians killed and churches burned; girls and women raped, killed, acid thrown in their faces, more visas for Iranians and other terror pushing countries and nada.

Is it me?

If any of his female bodyguard need immediate asylum, I volunteer. I’ve got room.

2. They cannot admit to the FAIL of xCommander AWOL Bush (R)
Edited on Thu Oct-20-11 09:40 AM by SpiralHawk
...and his war-profiteering fatcal oil crony, Dickie 'Five-military-deferments' Cheney (R).

Freepers, Baggers, and other assorted Republicon SuckerPuppets luv their quisling chickenhawk so-called 'leaders' but they are (understandably) ashamed to admit it, and to admit the EPIC FAIL they brought to Iraq, Afghanistan, bin Laden (R - Saudi), and Col. QuackDaffy (R - Libyan Variety).

9. I opposed our actions in Libya from the start, but unlike these guys I also oppose Bush's wars.
They are being hypocrites. Bush's wars were illegal and resulted in a lot more deaths than the Libyan war has so far.

11. Another post of well reasoned and nuanced comments from the braintrust at FR.
Of course, had Obama had to get Republican Congressional approval to deal with the pirates, OBL, Gaddaffi, all of them would still be alive and doing their terrorist thing. Imagine if Obama could make unilateral moves on our economy without Republicans obstructing any progress on fixing it.
