Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., reiterated his call for a U.S.-backed no-fly zone over Libya this morning and called Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi "insane."

[rabscuttle385]

"Oh, I agree with you," McCain said. "He's insane. But perhaps the people around him would begin to depart the sinking ship."

Takes Juan to know one, eh?

[null and void]

Not much gets past the old guy...

[rabscuttle385]

"I want to emphasize: ground intervention would not be appropriate – certainly not at this time."

How about a ground intervention on the border with Mexico? Or would that cause you too much McPain, Juan?

[cripplecreek]

I say we send in the McCain Minimmando squad to deal with it.



The "B" Team.

McCain is wrong on this one.

Gadhafi is as evil as they come, but he isn’t “insane” at all.- at least not from the information we have.

He feels that he can take a hard stand on the opposition and retain power, even if it means dissing Obama.

He may well be right, the Honduran government stood up to Obama’s rant last year and survived. Gadhafi is on the ground in Libya and is in position to judge the strength of his overall position- both domestically and internationally.

Sounds perfectly “sane” to me.

Hey McAmnesty! Why don’t you let him slip into the United States through the Arizona border with Mexico as an illegal alien? He will receive all the medical attention he needs.

"Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., reiterated his call for a U.S.-backed no-fly zone over Libya this morning and called Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi "insane."

I'm curious as to why McCain would favor a "no-fly zone" over Libya, but not over other insane places like Zimbabwe, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, Iran or San Francisco?

“So is McRino....he is a loon and from what men who served with him have said...he always been looney...”

The sad truth is that political power draws a very disproportionate number of obsessed and megalomaniac kooks, McCain the brainwashing subject among them. We allow these people to direct nations, when we would not let them watch our kids for a few hours.

John McCain: Gadhafi Is 'Insane'

McCain is insane.

Kartoffel is just another maniacal murdering moslem.

[Artcore]

Oh well here’s a surprise! McCain taking up the same talking points as his beloved media.

Oh how I wish this POS would just retire and go away!

The Libyan situation is different from Egypt. Egypt relied on our couple billion dollars a year of bribes foreign aid. We could plausibly threaten to withdraw it and tank the Egyptian economy*. We have no such leverage over Libya. Similarly Libya has oil which Europe and therefore the whole world oil market relies on, while Egypt had no necessary exports. Gadhafi thinking he could hang onto power while other tyrants haven't this year isn't a sign of insanity.

*It makes you wonder what would happen if China decided to withhold its hundreds of billions of dollars of loans. Would it collapse our government or would we just learn to quickly dance to their tune.
