What kind of right-wing bs is this? I see stories all over the internet today about the Libyan rebels having al-qaeda ties. Beck and Limbaugh and going to have a field day with this.
This is the kind of shit that happens when you rush in to war. Candidate Obama would never do such a thing, apparently President Obama would.
Sad.

. I heard last night it was going to be a new republican talking point. There was an interview with someone who claims to be a Libyan "rebel" and he says that al queda is aidding them. Naturally that equals- Obama is aiding the terrorists. I can't believe hoe low these people will sink.
All I have to say to that is- remember Chalabi.

| 5. It doesn't matter, really, we did pretty much the same in Afghanistan. |
|
IF these "rebels" ever turn on us, we'll come back to bomb their country again in a few years, with them in our sights this time.
surely they know this
We've stepped in it deep here - no end now except to keep bombing the piss out of every target all the way to the shores of Tripoli.

| 6. Guilty. It seems as though that may have been bad information. |

I apologize for any errors. I don't exactly have the AP newswire running through my home or office. I basically rely on visions that appear on my grilled cheese sandwiches.

| 7. Why would that be a surprise? |

We're forever doing stuff in that part of the world that makes no sense at all. I suspect oil as the motivator, rather than concern over the welfare of the people living there. But, what do I know?
