No surprise here. Again, Palin has to show Obama how to act presidential by supporting the people of a rebellion against a long-oppressive regime. That support sure as hell won’t be coming from The Marxist any time soon.

Not since the Kmerh Rouge has any government been so cruel murdering its citizens, and Obama has not a word to say about it.

This shows in spades what sort of cold blooded pan-Leninist he is.

Did I miss something or has Obama been unusually quiet over the uprisings in Libya?

Where’s Mr. Tough talk on Ghadaffi’s threats to kill his opponents and destroy oil pipelines???

With Thune dropping out, Huckabee running out of money, Romney unpopular among the base, and Daniels shooting himself in the foot, I really believe the stars are aligning for Governor Palin. There’s a part of me that thinks that the other GOP contenders are playing Kabuki theater for the media and will inevitably clear the way for Palin to run unopposed.

Obama was busy “having fun” at some small business BS break out sessions. Yes, he said it was so much fun they would have to do it again.

Libya?, we don't know anything about some stinking Libya...

The protests in many places in the Middle East affect regimes that have cooperated with the U.S.

This is the reason Gov. Palin was understated about Egypt and resolute about Libya.

When it comes to Libya, neither side is worthy of our accolades. Yes the guy is a brutal anti-US tyrant. He was also an isolated buffoon, grinding out his time on this planet in relative obscurity.

Is the Iranian model being implemented in Libya, and tied at the hip with other states that are also tied at the hip with Iran going to be better for America, Europe, and the planet in general?

HELL NO!

In situations like this, it is best to keep one’s yap shut and let the locals destroy each other in relative silence. This does not end well. Congratulating anyone at this point is only going to provide the powder to blow up in your face later on.

Someone once said, “Silence is bliss.” In this instance, they would have been a sage.

For once, Obama is doing the right thing. What does Saint Sarah think we can accomplish by getting stuck in that mess?

“why so silent Obama?”

I’ll tell you why.....Because we still have diplomats stuck there and hundreds of other Americans there that haven’t been able to get out. I’m not sure what the hangup is, but we can’t get our people out, and it would be stupid to speak too harshly and risk their not getting out at all.

Am I mean-spirited? Because I don’t give 2 shits about Libyans and their “freedom”. They all seem like savages. And if they can’t keep things stable, control of their oil should be taken from them.

Libya’s “freedom”? They are “free” now?

She can’t be serious.

Now is the time to speak out. Speak out for the long-suffering Libyan people. Speak out for the victims of Gaddafi’s terror. NATO and our allies should look at establishing a no-fly zone so Libyan air forces cannot continue slaughtering the Libyan people.

This sounds like Reagan or even Bush 41 or 43. Yet Obama cares so much about the cruely oppressed people of the world that he remains silent.

Obama has said previously that he will always side with islam and also with the unions. So, no surprise really.

Once again, President No. 45 has to school present President No. 44 in leadership.

Think about this: The USA just agreed to rapping Israel on the knuckles over their building apartments on land they won in various wars. Obama has been all over Israel since day one about these settlements, yet........ crickets about these brutal murders by a horrible dictator.

I’m all for the Libyans choosing liberty, but if the replacement for a chastened Qaddafi is the pro-Al Qaeda Emirate of Barqa, this is a net loss for the US.

I’m disappointed.

It seems Sarah is going down the path of Bill Kristol and the Weekly Standard, which is bankrupting our nation messing in the affairs of other nations.

It’s both an electoral and fiscal loser of a policy.
