This is puzzling. While we all knew he’d botch it, it’s only been a few days.
Actually he botched it when he said Gadaffy must go; then by dithering while Gadaffy was on the ropes; and then this belated, ineffectual, chaotic “coalition.”
It’s like he started at home plate, ran to third, sleepwalked to second, got kicked hard over to first base and having landed there, he’s now staggering toward home.
Even for a rookie, it’s an unbelievably bad performance.
omg.....Obama is destroying a 70 year alliance.....
Well, what the f*** does "Qaddafi has to go -now" mean, then?
He's only going one way, and that way is dead.
And if he doesn't get dead, we are going to pay for this attack on his country - and pay, and pay, and then pay some more.
If Obama wasn't going to send a USMC sniper squad to get him, he shouldn't have opened his mouth.
Blame it on Rio.
The Germans cut and run before France??? Laura mercy! Meanwhile, Bambi learns you can’t just phone it in.
But, but — the Arab League said we should do this....
So much easier to sit back and watch the “cowboy” Americans do the worlds policing.
Questions: why are we paying for this? Why are our pilots put in harms way? What are the chances that a liberated Libya will be pro-American?
A good next step would be for the USA to pull out of NATO - completely.
Interesting.
This is the worst fiasco since Iraq. What a joke. These people did nothing to US — nothing that is proven. Who do we think we are? The UN resolution means nothing!!! It is our Constitution and the War Powers Act that govern us. We need to GET OUT OF THE UN!!! We need to GET OUT OF THESE ARAB COUNTRIES!!. No Blood — No money. If they screw with us we turn them to GLASS!!
It’s not The Libyan Coalition. It’s The Obama Coalition.
And the Germans have been our allies since they surrendered at Pearl Harbor. No good!
Bush Sr. said “this will not stand”.....and we drove the Iraqi military out of Kuwait.
Obama says “this will not stand” ......and NATO falls apart.
Bush had what....26 coalition members?
Obieboy has, I think 6....now down to 5?
Two Pictures of Leadership
Guess Barack was right when he said this thing would be over in a couple days.
I'll bet the scorned Winston Churchill bust is laughing its plaster off.

My God, is it really as bad as this article makes it sound?
Remember that while Obama was out playing golf, vacationing, visiting other continents it was Clinton crisscrossing the Atlantic helping set this up.

Libya is another community Obama can’t organize.
