There should be plenty left in the Embassy security budget to fund this project.

Hey, and while we are at it, why don’t we give them a squadron of F 16s too?
Or a fleet of drones to kill nasty terrorists and keep their nation free. And a Billion dollars in aid. Annually.

Big Mistake. The U.S is going to arm a lybian commando force.
We have seen this before in Afghanistan, where these hacks shoot our own
solders. A Big Mistake in the making.

This is what will happen:
and this is what Obama & Co. will say until eventually Panatta accepts responsibility:
If these clowns had a molecule of affection for our country they wouldn't do a damn thing more--other than cashing their paychecks, of course--until they hand over matters of state to the grownups in January.

Anything rushed like this will be gay and superficial just the way it is these days. Please post my wrongs on this.
