Obamas Justification Speech on Libya

 

"after bi-partisan consultation
with congress"

Tonight President Obama gave his speech justifying his bombing of Libya.  I noticed a few subtle things, the first of which was his gloating over how he didn't put ground troops on the ground yet a few sentences later emphasized that the action would use what ever means necessary.  The second was his mention that the action as of Wednesday would be a NATO action with the United States in support roles.  The "support" roles are not clearly defined.  The most glaring was his statement that he in fact did consult with congress in a bi-partisan way before taking action, a fact that's disputed by congress in a bi-partisan way.

The one thing he did admit indirectly was that he made a mess out of the country in that he acknowledged that it will take years to get a decent government in place.

Is Libya or its people better off ?  Are the interests of the United States better off by his action?  These two questions are yet to be answered.  One must not forget Oama was a protagonist in this uprising and thus one of the causes of the massacres, even if it was only through his incompetence.

****update****

After writing this I was reminded of the Obama apology tour early in his administration where he apologized for the very actions of our country through the years that he bragged about as great accomplishments tonight.

Thank you to Guido!!!!

Benghazi !

Gingrich finished

The recent flip flops by Newt are an indicator that hes not in possession of a real agenda that's solid.  I like Newt but I think his heart isn't in it.  Talking his way out of flip flops just doesn't cut it with me.  His attempts at saying he was bypassing Iowa after not showing, his calling for attacking Libya than reversing once we attacked, are Lame at best.

Newt, is better a pundit than in office.

The Eggshell Of Security cooperation in the Mideast

The AP reports the diffusing of a bomb by Egyptian security forces, the escape of six thugs, at a gas terminal in the Sinai near el-Arish. .  The pipeline supplies both Israel and Jordan with natural gas.  There have been incidents as of late regarding sabotage of the pipeline and Israel has agreed that Egypt would deploy soldiers to guard the facilities.



Bombing Scene

This situation among others shows us the delicate way in which the Egyptian and Israeli governments work together to maintain a semblance of peace. 

The big question is, WILL THIS COOPERATION EXIST IN 6 MONTHS WITH MR. OBAMA ENCOURAGING UPHEAVAL AND THE CREATION OF POWER VOIDS IN THE REGION ?

The answer to the question stated above may be no.  We are already seeing signs of Iranian emboldment in the murder two weeks ago of an entire family, the newest bus station bombing, increased influance in Egyption political landscape of radicalism, brotherhood,and more rockets being lobbed.  Iranian proxy supported operaters are having a field day while the United States helps them get in power in Libya.

Natural Gas Pumping Facility

 

Monday Obama is making his speech explaining his rational for this potential direct combat aid to our enemies.  I have no doubt he will speak of humanitarian justification.  One must remember that Obama has supported the rebels in both cases before Gadaffi lashed out. Does that not make him one of the sides of these disputes?  Is it not Obama who supported the toppeling of both Egypt and Libya while knowing the only operators capable of taking the govts place in a power void was the Iranian based proxy operators such as Al Quida and the Muslum Brotherhood in all their varients? 

Way to go...Big "O"

Hamas at it again

After a volley of recent rocket attacks above and beyond the steady flow into Israel that rarely makes headlines, and now a bombing in Jerusalem, all hell is ready to break loose again in Gazza. It has only been just more than a week since a Jewish family was brutally murdered and hamass seems to be lashing out as diligently as possible demanding attention in the form of IDF action to mitigate their ability to attack. No doubt that the mitigation action, if any, will be covered in some press as an aggression rather than defensive as it is.

The PA's Abbas has condemned the attacks and Hamass has applauded them.

Hamass leaders and operatives are reported to have switched off their phones in anticipation of possible action against them.

Yikes! No wonder Obama went to South America.

Will any American who doesn't want "O"'s head on a platter please stand up! Nader, Clinton, Farrakkklan, Waters, fat boy Mike Moore, ......and the entire state of Arizona.

Maybe Obama should read Dale Carnegie's book! He is experiencing an influence deficit of Biblical proportions.

Fox News Blames Cockpits For Lack Of Female Pilots

Fox late night show Red Eye blamed the lack of female airline pilots on calling the control area of the plane the COCKPIT. During the late night show, it was suggested by the panel that the name be changed from Cockpit. No alternative to the term was suggested.

In other political entertainment news Maddow made fun of Beck and Schultz made fun of Oriely.

Only thing missing is the lizzard.

What a week Japan had !
Lets see...
a 9.0 earth quake...
not enough?
a 30 foot tsunami...
want more?
4 nuke meltdowns...
warming up ?

Now we have a radioactive plume stretching across the Pacific to Carmel California. 

Oh lets not forget a third front (didn't our generals say we couldn't handle a third front) in the war against the T word.

All this while our commander and chief sits on a lounge chair on a beach in Rio...south by 2000 miles of the jet stream while cabana boys who are in abject poverty tend to his and others needs.
