Obama to Leno: Libya a Recipe for Success

How can you honestly think Libya was a foreign policy success? I don't think the rebels are any better than Qadhafi, in fact they are probably much worse. The evidence is them torturing and killing Qadhafi instead of giving him a trial first. These guys won't be our friends, and now extremists are going to have access to all those weapons and oil money. Great job Obama!

Great Job Obama! Really. Bin Laden. Al Zawiri (sp-sorry), Ghadafi. Troops out of Iraq.
GW Bush never caught anyone except the guy who never attacked us...Sadaam, and didn't really want to - it was all propaganda. Big talk. The neo-cons who ran him were fine with having the real Al Qaeda "bad guys" still out there.
When Obama does not have to run through the constant GOP road blocks and can act on his own, he is decisive, logical, and gets great results with minimal loss of American lives.
Foreign policy - Obama gets an A grade (would have been A+, but I did not agree on more troops in Afghanistan).
The GOP hates this, and is laughable when they refuse to give him credit, try to ignore the ring-kissing of Ghadafi by McCain, Graham and Liebermann, and then try to justify staying LONGER in Iraq. Like $3 TRILLION in war debt already incurred over close to 10 years is not enough....
The GOP is not willing to admit that they were wrong about LIbya, Iraq and most other things in the Middle East. They destablized the entire region, empowered the Shia by taking out a key Sunni leader, and remain at the beckon-call of AIPAC.
Obama has looked out for AMERICAN interests - not business interests, not Saudi or Israeli. He got results. The GOP did not.
