When President Barack Obama addresses the nation Monday evening, nine days after launching airstrikes against Libyan strongman Muammar Qadhafi, his challenge is to convince the public that, congressional nail-biting aside, he acted swiftly and decisively in the national interest.

He has his work cut out for him.

He doesn’t have to sell anything. The media will be gushing all over him... they’ll say he’s a natural born diplomat, a natural born military genius and we’re so lucky to have him for our fearless leader. At that point I will puke (again).

DumBO will use tomorrows read to outline his plans for a no-fly zone from Richmond, since, VCU took out his NCAA pick. He will explain how this racist act from a southern city was aimed at him personally and that it is to prevent further harm to other basketball teams.

I know exactly who 0bama will get to speak to the press about the military operation, too...

When it's all said and done Chrissy Mathews will be spittin’ and drooling about how the speech made Obomba a “wartime” president ...who shows he can lead...can rally the nation...etc, etc, etc....
