Get the Kleenex out. Not.
Libyean leader Muammar Gaddafi sent a message to the US President defending his decision to attack the rebels fighting to overthrow him.
Gaddafi(68) also wrote a letter to the French and British leaders, and the UN Secretary General, saying the Security Council resolution was “void” and violated the UN charter, warning them that they would “regret” any intervention.
“Libya is not for you, Libya is for the Libyans,” he said.
Wrong Gaddafi, what POTUS wants…POTUS gets. Somehow, I think this all came as a shock to Muammar?
Details of Gaddafi’s letters were released by the Libyan government spokesman at a news conference in Tripoli.
Defending his decision to attack rebel cities, Gaddafi told Obama, “Al Qaeda is an armed organisation, passing through Algeria, Mauritania and Mali. What would you do if you found them controlling American cities with the power of weapons? What would you do, so I can follow your example.”
Trying to strike a personal note, Gaddafi prefaced his letter saying, “To our son, his excellency, Mr Baracka Hussein Obama. I have said to you before, that even if Libya and the United States of America enter into a war, god forbid, you will always remain a son. Your picture will not be changed.”
via ‘To my Dear Obama, our son’, says Gaddafi, defending attack on rebels. Good grief, did Muammar really believe in the wayward son? Note to Muammar: Barack is busy doing another samba in another country right now. Will get back to you later when he feels like it.

Hmm….. If I didn’t believe that Obama’s intentions were so pure and honorable (gimme a second -vomiting), I would think that this whole thing was just something he cooked up so he would be prevented from cutting the pentagon budget….
Good thing I’m brainless, huh?
Love the “My Dear Son, Baracka Hussein” crap too.
