Obama says Gadhafi must leave Libya ‘now’

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama says Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi must leave the country now.

Obama made the comments to German Chancellor Angela Merkel in a private telephone conversation Saturday as they discussed the violence in Libya. The White House says Obama told Merkel that when a leader’s only means of holding power is to use violence against his people, then he has lost the legitimacy to rule and needs to do what’s right for his country by “leaving now.”

The comments mark the first time that Obama has called on Gadhafi to step down.

He is using strong language against a dictator. Not saying that is going to get anywhere but this is a good thing.

Did you actually look in it, or are you just making fun of my ICONS? Lol. Most of those are click things for music, etc. I should delete the folder in my computer now and free up space!

Maybe we are misinterpreting the Liberal Messiah’s words. Maybe the Liberal Messiah is telling Quadafi to leave because He doesn’t want Quadafi to die. Quadafi does consider the Liberal Messiah a friend. If Quadafi stays, he will be killed. The Liberal Messiah could simply be trying to save His friend.

We should just send a predator drone to do the job. That man staying will drive oil to $140 a barrel.

AND, all we have is second-hand conversation, it’s nothing 0 has said publicly. He had no problem calling out a proven ally publicly but he keeps tip-toeing around Khadaffi. It’s another way he’s just like Jimmuh Karter.

When enough chaos has been created, enough people killed and all the leaders of the Middle East have been banished by mobs(powered by Google and Facebook); then the campaign will begin to make Obama the leader of the new, free,(sarc) Middle East.

The campaign will be powered by none other than......(drumroll).....Facebook and Google. Then the countries of the Middle East will have what we have had for two years....a virtual leader, Emperor of the Air, Prince of Cyberspace. They will lap it up like starved cats!

If you think that’s far fetched you’re not awake.
