Mitt Romney told reporters in Iowa Thursday that President Barack Obama deserves credit for the downfall of Muammar Qadhafi. Continue Reading
Exiting a campaign stop in Council Bluffs, Romney answered a shouted question about whether Obama deserves some credit for the outcome in Libya.
"Yes, yes, absolutely," Romney said, as he darted out a back door.
Earlier in the day, Romney's campaign said it was the Libyan rebels, more than the Obama administration, that deserved praise for ousting the dictator.

He had NOTHING to do with it!!! Coming out on this AM news that NATO is still investigating and basically are saying that it was an airstrike on a large convoy carrying guns and ammo that started the debacle. They didn't even know that Gad Fly was in one of the vehicles. Obama's mission? Don't make me laugh. Another reason NOT to vote for a RINO/Lib 2.0.
The only result now will be that the two factions, the eastern and the western tribal groups will be still battling one another for control. We should pull out the couple of billion we have spent from the billions of Libyan deposits we now have frozen and tell them basically to GTH!

NATO operation and being reported that they didn’t even know Quadaffi was in the vicinity. They sent a drone to take out a vehicle convoy.
If BO said “GO” - he was probably ordering an icecream.

Why must Republicans cater to the liberals? Did Bush get credit for killing Sadam? No the liberals were nasty to him.

Romney is full of that stuff that collect in a cow pasture. King Obama is not intelligent enough to have any kind of idea what Libya is. He had nothing to do with Libya's overthrow. NATO did and even then Libya will turn into another Egypt. Romney is crazy.

This isn’t just a Romney problem but he could be the poster child for this behavior. Republicans need to learn to stop saying anything positive about Democrats. Unless they die, they get cancer or their dog gets run over you just don’t say nice things about the enemy. The press will manipulate it and use it against you. Politics today is not a gentleman’s sport.

Yeah, Mitt. He deserves credit for stringing it out, resulting in additional suffering and death because he wanted to lead from behind. I wonder where Barry learned that.

>> Unless they die, they get cancer or their dog gets run over you just dont say nice things about the enemy.
And even when those *bad* things happen to them, you don’t say nice things about them, you just keep your mouth shut.
The problem is, with our professional politicians, there *is* no right or wrong, and there *are* no enemies. It’s like trial lawyers — they argue against each other in court, then go out for drinks afterwards.
Pols are all members of the same fraternal organization.
It’s not a good situation, particularly since most (R)s are stupid and gullible as well as buddy-buddy with the ones that should be their enemy.

Yeah, Mitt. Obama deserves BLAME for Libya—because only he could have stopped this stupid, illegal farce of installing Muslim terrorists all across North Africa, bombing civilians, schools, and hospitals, and murdering a head of state so France could entertain its foolish neo-colonial ambitions.
There, fixed it.
