Four of the Senate’s top voices on foreign policy voiced their support Friday for the Obama administration’s move to formally recognize rebel leaders as the legitimate governing authority of Libya.

“We welcome the Administration’s decision to recognize the Transitional National Council (TNC) as the legitimate governing authority of Libya,” said Republican Sens. John McCain (Ariz.), Lindsey Graham (S.C.) and Marco Rubio (Fla.) and Independent Sen. Joe Lieberman (Conn.) in a statement.

Ubama regime is beyond clueless.

Clueless? This is exactly what you'd expect a radical Muslim to do, support Al Qaeda in Libya to get power. You do know Obama is a Muslim traitor, don't you? He was placed in power to do as much damage as he can and America is still clueless.

Isn't it obvious or do you need to see Obama Nuc Tel Avi first?

The three blind mice (McCain/Graham/Lieberman) aren’t a surprise but Rubio? Bizarre.

Very, very disappointing.

I am not surprised at McCain, Graham or Leiberman.

I am very active in the Tea Party in my area (Texas) and sent $$ to Marco’s campaign. It makes me wonder if we are having a positive affect in any way. I don’t expect 100 per cent agreement with any politician...but this seems to be pretty big.

I hadn’t heard about the Transitional Council. Thanks for the heads up on that. Rubio? I had hopes that he would be a breath of fresh air. He’s in with the wrong crowd here. The wrongest crowd.

John Kerry must have been at the VA Hospital for treatment of his war injuries, (He served in Vietnam, in case you hadn’t heard!) or he would have been johnny-on-the-spot to join his old comrade, McCain.

IMHO, each member of this Transiotional Council was hand picked by none other than Marxist CIA former director Leon Panetta.

A whole government’s resources is being ripped off by Obama. I wonder how much of Gadhafi’s Trillions will end up in the Obama campaign coffers? Neat way to grift Trillions to fund Obamagheddon, eh? We begin to see the reason for Obama’s war against Gadhafi.

The b__tard needs impeached yesterday.

With his hair matted in sweat and heavy bags under his eyes, Ali Tarhouni, the rebels’ minister of finance and oil, noted that the international recognition the rebels received Friday would not result in an immediate infusion of funds, which they desperately need.

This is from the article that was linked from the article above. It is the only name given associated with this Transitional Council. Who the heck are these people that they want to give tens of billions of dollars for arms? It has been four months now and the "rebels" still haven't been identified as to who/what they are other than an opposition to Gaddafi. This whole thing is nothing but a humongous grift.

Its a lie, they are getting infusions of that cash right into their numbered personal Swiss bank accounts so the media or the US public cannot trace it.

Why else do you think McCain, Rubio, Leibermann etc. are circling like vultures?

You are right. Huge grift. It beats the Reagan Iran Contra scam by several country miles. Ollie North must be spitting nickles.

Where is the press? Buahahahahahahahaha!

Billions into the Obmagheddon coffers to fund the Obama Fascist movement.

Oh, I’m sure the “rebels” will get a small, but nonetheless significant, cut of the take. If for no other reason than to create a public cover for the billions of dollar’s worth of military hardware they will get that U.S. taxpayers will actually foot the bill for.

The real grift could be billions into off shore accounts to fund Obamagheddon. I hope someone is watching that, like the FBI, CIA or Interpol.Certainly the Mossad would be weatching that.

You have to rememeber that Obama has the Swiss banking system quaking in fear. They do what he says these days.That means everyone in the USA is restricted in the use of Foreign Bank accounts except for those with “waivers” from the new foreign reporting laws of international bank accounts, i.e those from the fascist Obama regime and his supporters.

After reading this article that you pinged me to, The Chosen One, I have to wonder if the CIA would be watching him closely to stop him or to help him.

The CIA is out of it,among Obama's first acts in office was to put the entire agency under threat, and to cap it with Leon Panetta, an avowed Marxist.Panetta has damaged the CIA and got the senior officers qualing in fear and has left , handing an ineffective agency to a new fall guy.

THe real power behind Obama is a cartel of Arabs and Soros,those same ones who caused the crisis of a Bank Run on the fed to the tune of 500 billion in a few hours, on Sept 18th , 2007. The only surveillance on Obama are the 60 stalwart Tea Party Republicans in the House, perhaps a few small wings of the US military, and the Israelis. If we can simply get the facts on Obama out to the public before the election, we can be rid of him. I think the HOUSE should draw up articles of impeachment and investigate him publicly, so that information can get out to the public beyond the Obama propaganda MSM machine. That way Obama loses to the truth.The truth is long overdue.

60 Conservative Republicans in the House need to go on the offensive and begin drafting articles of impeachment.

The battle must be joined. They have an entire nation to save from the presidential usurper of our constitution and our way of life.

Thats the answer, or we will have to resort to force majeur as a people, yet again.
