#4 Whose side are we on?...Who are we protecting?...If he is deposed, who will we be dealing with?"

Once again, I find myself in the odd position of being in agreement with the Liberal flakes on this one. Or, at the very least, I share the same questions they are voicing. Have you seen footage of the so-called "opposition"? I dunno bout anyoneone else but I ain't feelin the 'liberty and justice for all' vibe from these guys. Maybe it's because they're a bunch of cut-throat Islamist bastards that HATE the West as much as they hate Qadhaffi. This is a continuation of centuries old African Tribal Blood-Lust! Sure, they try to put the shaven-boys in their fake leather jackets in front of the cameras but look in the back ground. Yep, that's right it's the AQIM turbans lickin their chops. Did you miss fuckin Abu Yahya al Libi's statment last week? Humanitarian crisis you say? You ain't seen nuttin yet.

#5 DepotGuy, they'd have to be pretty darned bad for me to prefer Qadaffy.

If they're al-Qaeda types the solution is simple: we take them out next.

#6 ...well, we did pick Stalin over Hitler. We tried voting present then too. That sort of bombed on Dec 7th. Sometimes life just sucks that way.

Just on the principle that the ruling class screwed justice over Lockerbie, we should finish the affair once and for all.

#7 we should finish the affair once and for all.

First make sure those friendly to us are ready take over afterwords. There is no evidence this is being done or whether the Obama administration has a clue about the rebel leaderships' (note the plural) ideology.

#8 If they're al-Qaeda types the solution is simple: we take them out next.

Who exactly do you mean when you say "we" will take them out. Is "we" that ambiguous, yet rightous, "International Community"? Ok then, but "we" will want to make sure the Arab League is cool with it first. I hear the they get alittle touchy when infidels kill Muslim folks in Islamic countries. (Sometimes even when they're "al-Qaeda types") But I'm sure as long as "we" all wear blue hats an "we" do it all from 14K feet they will be fine it.

#10 Oh BTW, the mouthpiece for the State Dept. just said they consider the Rebels to be "civilians".

That's easy. There are no 'friendlies'.
You just follow the old joke about the elephant [3].
"Remember me?", "Want me to use this again?"

#12 Boy howdy, if Bambi has lost Sheila Jackson Lee...

...and Joan Baez, Matt Damon, Hugo Chavez, Louis Farrakhan. Leftys are jumping the Obama ship.
