This is all about oil.

If this was happening further down in Africa, Zero would be doing nothing.

IMO, it’s not about oil at all.

It’s about Obama wanting to be seen as presidential prior to November 2012. Further, it’s about him wanting to show people he’s not a friend to every Muslim leader. As if...

Obama doessn’t know what the hell to do, but he’s going to do something, so the people who voted for him won’t realize it.

You said, “This is all about oil.”

Actually, I don’t think so. Libya isn’t even in the top 20 oil importers for the US in 2010

I think it would surprise a lot of people that the top country that we import oil from is Canada. The other top 20 countries in order are are Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Venezuela, Iraq, Angola, Brazil, Algeria, Colombia, Equador, Russia, Kuwait, United Kingdom and Argentina.
