Did anyone else watch Rachel's piece on Libya?

And is it fair for some of us to quote it to try and promote our point of view?

7. I suggest you check her web site later and watch the entire segment
I can't do it justice but I can tell you, she ain't calling for no stinking impeachment.



P.S. I don't have cable either, I watch on line here: http://www.justin.tv/rockinroosters17#/w/990055728/8

3. EXCELLENT!

'OUR POINT of VIEW' as reluctant to 'police' the world.

Also good one going with Steve Clemons now.

Clemons said decision 'not hijacked by boys or girls!' Love it!

6. I had an aha moment on something
I had one big problem with Obama's decision to not bring this in front of Congress in any formal way but after listening to Rachel, I came away with thinking Obama did it in this way not only to keep a lower, less chest-beating profile but also so members of congress who would milk this could not run with the chest-beating themselves and blow this up ten times bigger than it needed to be.

Unfortunately, on the flip side, I came away with a more worrisome problem....the people who are fighting. I knew they were just protesters taking up arms to defend themselves but to find out they may not be even remotely organized or have the will to see this through is deeply troubling.

I wonder if there is a plan for that.

11. After listening to a couple reports on NPR, I suspect that the
fix is in on this. I believe England and France, possibly other regional governments are using what appears to be a real revolt as a cover for replacing Gaddaffi with someone who will give them a better deal on Libyan oil.
