Obama steps in it

As Libyan Rebels Stall, Obama Faces Impossible Choice

If he escalates, the U.S. could risk another Afghanistan; if he doesn't, we could be seen as complicit in Qaddafi's victory...


Obama, utterly clueless as usual, thought for some reason that an untrained, ill-equipped, rag-tag bunch of rebels could beat Qaddafi's army. Now he's standing ankle deep in the cow pie, wondering which way to jump.

And I'm guessing that he's about to find out what the European Military Machine is worth when the going gets tough. They couldn't do squat in the Balkans, when fellow Europeans were being slaughtered right in their own backyard, but now they'll be decisive and stick it out for some North African tribesmen? I'd love to see the Vegas odds on that scenario. The Euros don't have transport capability to do anything serious at any significant distance, whatever their intentions. Call it NATO, call it TOMATO, it's going to end up a U.S. war.

Time for another trip to Brazil, Obysmal, you incompetent fool.
