I heard on news radio that the people in Libya who are anti-Qaddafi (sp?) are upset at the U.S. for not coming to their assistance. And that the U.S. can't appear to take the side of the opposition, but also can't appear to the rest of the world to support Qaddafi because it's generally thought that he needs to go. The commentator said the best option for the U.S. at this point is to continue to encourage Qaddafi to leave, and to look at other non-military options. Is that accurate? (I missed the beginning of the story) If we want Qaddafi gone, why can't we publicly take that position? And what's the relationship between a might/might not happen situation in Libya and oil prices?


Thanks,

Awwwww....they are upset about that ???? Maybe we should all go over there and sit and hold their hands for a while, maybe a shoulder to cry on.
Perhaps then they would give us a discount on the oil ????
I'm waiting to see what kind of fruitcake will replace Gaddafi.

When the posters reply
and you just don't know why
That's semantics.....

She is quite cute as well. Think we can ship her off to Australia with the other historian?

Keep digging that hole ladies.

I agree - she is quite attractive. And another plus for her - she didn't up and quit halfway through her first term in Congress. She stuck it out and is now in her third term. She also has 5 children, and has been a foster mom to 23.

I think Wom is the perfect answer - he seems to have more knowledge of American history than she does

Thankyou Gretchen.
She would be a sweet partner to have.
She has looks AND a sense of humour....now that TWO plus's.
I gotta tell ya.....there's some people here who have less sense of humour than a house brick.....the ones that THINK they are educated
