A broken clock can be right twice a day. I think it would be stupid to send US troops to Libya.

[RedMDer]

Hugo wouldn't know madness if it bit him in the buttocks and he lives in that state.

[Brilliant]

Uhmmmmmm... Yeah sure, Chavez... It’s Libya we’re preparing to invade.

[NoLibZone]

Put a 7.62 in his mouth already.

The shaved monkey that roared,Ole Jugo, always good for a laugh!

B4 we even think about working Libya over, we should practice in Venezuela.

[org.whodat]

Bingo!!!! No american blood to make obamma look like he has a back bone, instead of a noodle.

[OCC]

"If the Yankees (attempt) the madness of invading Libya -- Gadhafi already said it a few days ago -- it would be a new Vietnam

I don't think the Yankees are scheduled to play Libya this year.

[stboz]

It’s time for some REAL shock and awe.....in Venezuela.

[SunkenCiv]

Yes, and even way past time for it.

[mylife]

He’s quite mad you know.

[musicman]

Well then Obama most likely agrees!!

[SunkenCiv]

If Zero doesn’t act, expect South America to start to come apart a little more, probably beginning with a major offensive by Venezuela’s proxies in Columbia.

[sentient]

If I were President I would commission 5,000 MOABS. I would then ask for 5,000 targets. Without hesitation I would hit all 5,000 targets. Guess who messes with the US next......

[SunkenCiv]

His regime is falling apart, he needs to either hold it together — a rocketing crude price can do that to some extent, although if memory serves the only refinery that can handle his shiite-y crude is in the US Virgin Islands; or he can start the war against Columbia in earnest. If Zero does nothing about that, he’ll be out on his ass.
