Hello Ward,

President Obama's foreign policy rule of negotiation: "You first."

>LL>I am afraid The Big O is turning out to be The Big Zero, given
>LL>his lack of leadership abilities.  Rather than confront a tinhorn
>LL>dictator, he has allowed that tinhorn dictator to remain in power,
>LL>along with other tinhorn dictators (who now know the US President
>LL>is a wimp and will do nothing to support pro-democracy protestors).

WD>Do we know that there are pro-democracy protesters?

People marching peacefully in the streets are pro-democracy protesters.
People throwing rocks at soldiers who are shooting at them with guns and
tanks are rebels who are trying to overthrow an evil dictator. Please do
know the difference.

WD>We only know that there are rebels a.k.a. freedom-fighters, depending
WD>on the side which you are on.

They were peaceful pro-democracy protesters until soldiers started
shooting at them with guns and tanks.  You expect people to just roll
over and die?  No.  People will try to survive, any which way they can.
Qadaffi is a brutal dictator.  He did not stay in power for 42 years
by playing nice.  He broke more than a handful of eggs to make his
omelet.  And the only way for Libyans to have peace in their country
is to remove that madman from power.  Through force of arms.

WD>But maybe the US has learned not to intervene in an Arab land without
WD>the express consent of the Arab League of Nations.

Not intervening is giving tacit approval.  Which is exactly what
President Obama has done, by refusing to impose a no-fly zone over
Libya.  Do keep in mind the 22-nation Arab League has called on
President Obama and the United Nations to impose a no-fly zone
over Libya.  And still the US President (and United Nations) refused.

[update1: a no-fly zone has since been approved, but The Big Zero
refuses to commit ground troops to support any kind of military action
against Libya's madman]

[update2: the French president has taken military action against
Libya's madman dictator in light of The Big Zero's inaction]

[update3: the French president is now the new "Leader of the
Free World", having earned the title through his actions]

WD>You know ... Saudi-Arabia, Yemen, Bahrein, Abu Dabi, the UAE ...
WD>all shining examples of countries with regular elections, free
WD>speech, free internet, ..

Pro-democracy demonstations are being quelled in those
countries by the use of force.  Not just pushing and shoving,
but by the use of soldiers and snipers shooting real bullets
into those demonstrators.  Whether it is in Saudi Arabia,
Bahrain, Yemen, or elsewhere, it makes no difference.  This
"pro-democracy" change in the world is not about democracy.
It is about oil.

Oh, yeah.  We want their oil.  All of it.  Cheap, if not free.
Doesn't really matter what the people of those countries want.
It's the oil we want, and care for.  Not people, democracy, or
human rights.

Remember, Qaddafi was not a tyrant three weeks ago.  He gave
us what we wanted.  We were happy.  Even though his people might
not have been.  Just as the people of Saudi Arabia, Yemen, etc.,
might not be happy.  Egypt did not have much oil, in comparison
with Libya, Saudi Arabia, etc.  Is that why The Big Zero has
chosen to do nothing when it came to supporting pro-democracy
movements in those countries?  Doing nothing is giving tacit
approval to those regimes.  Keep the oil flowing.  Never mind
what The Big Zero says in public.  It is what he does that
counts.  And you know him.  He's a nice guy.  Won the Nobel
Peace Prize.  And now you know why.  For being the biggest
wimp the world has ever known.

WD>8-(

You said it, bro'.

>LL>US Senators John McCain, Joe Lieberman, John Kerry, ...

WD>For some odd reason, I'm not interested anymore what Lieberman
WD>has to say.  He's a loser.

He won his last election.  Which was his last.
Meanwhile, President Obama has earned a new title -

                       -= THE BIG ZERO =-

Isn't that sweet?  Nobel Laureate Barack Obama.  The Big Zero.
Maybe he can write another book when he leaves office.  That day
will be coming soon.  Noon, January 20, 2013.  O what a glorious
day it will be, when Sarah Palin lifts her right hand...

--Lee
