. . . Me, Or Your Lyin' Eyes?

They gave every appearance of having officially rolled over and it looked for about two hours like Qaddafi was going to start playing nice with the people trying to take his job . . . then the reports of ongoing fighting came in. Still attackin' (or defendin', dependin' on your perspective). So, we have begun to turn his country to sand, one ten-thousand dollar smart bomb at a time. President Obama says we will not be sending ground forces into Libya. Let's hope he doesn't get any cute ideas . . . some of us still remember Mogadishu.

Meanwhile, in Egypt, they are having "real" elections. If the elections don't go our way, then what? Does the commmunity organizer in chief send the CIA to stir up another insurrection? Do we put troops in Libya AND Egypt in the next two years? It is unlikely, but I don't put very much past the incompetents at the top of America these days.

Well, a Liberal does have a tendency to over react big time to pretty much anything they can't control- look at Zero Tolerance and the union crap that going on in Wisconsin and other states.

It wouldn't surprise me for him to see an uptick in his approval ratings from FINALLY getting off his @ss about Libya, and then getting all 'cowboy-ish' on the rest of the Mid-east.
