Muammar Gaddafi's son has claimed that Libya helped finance Nicolas Sarkozy's successful re-election campaign in 2007, and demanded that the French president return the money to "the Libyan people."....

Does this mean that for once Obama isn’t throwing one of his buddies under the bus? That could well explain that hands off approach. We are pretty sure that he didn’t have that kind of relationship in Egypt.
This guy reminds me of Saddam Hussein's kids.
I don't think Sarkozy would be the first to support the opposition (which was weak at best) if Libya had dirt on him.
Makes no sense at all!
Payback for Sarkozi’s no Fly Zone push.
Dear Obama,
If you allow a 'no-fly zone' to be established I will demand a refund from you as well.
Your's truely, O.Gaddafi

Oh I don't trust a damn thing that he has to say. But he is volunteering evidence of his claims.

That's sensible. But then again that would be to underestimate the sheer arrogance of the Euro elite, add to that, Sarkozy is French which adds an automatic arrogance.
think that Sarkozy could argue that "he actually had to lead the opposition BECAUSE he took campaign money from Libya and this was really his way of proving that Libya didn't own him". There is no telling what surrealistic crap that might come out of an Eurocrat's mouth.
Maybe but everyone was after Libyan and other ME money. They can’t have it both ways
Ah!!! Yes!!! Someone out there in the hinderland sees as I do!!! Yes, IMHO, POTUS Obama is dirty from head to toe with Quaddafi support. You folks can figure it out. Just remember that close kint “Ring Around The Rosie” cabal of Obama, Wright, Farrakhan, Clyburn, Jones and, of course, the backer, Quaddafi. Yes, Quaddafi, the murderer of American innocents in Berlin and on board Pan Am Flight 103. Be proud Americans and especially you Democrats, that you put this sleaze team into power!!! Dummies!!!
My take on the "revolution" in the Middle East is that this has been plotted and orchestrated by marxists who are working in tandem with Iran (Muslim Brotherhood) to overthrow all Sunni regimes and replace them with Shia puppets that can be controlled by the Hitler in Iran.
Call me crazy but that is my take on everything on the Middle East. And yes I believe Obama is supportive of the Hitler in Iran and is working in tandem with him.
Jeremiah Wright has some Hope and some change from him too (most likely).
OK, there’s a political bomb that didn’t require Wikileaks!
“I do have a question though is Gadaffi Shia or Sunni?”
That’s a tricky question. North Africa is mostly Sunni, so it’s more likely he has a Sunni background. Besides that, he has said in the past he doesn’t believe in the Sunni/Shia division, but then later made overtures to Iran about created a Neo-Fatimid Shiite Empire in North Africa.
He’s also said in the past that Libya is an African nation, and that Arabs should stay out of the business of African nations, and then later said that North Africa and the Berbers are 100% Arabs...
So, I’m getting the impression that his allegiance blows whichever way he thinks will benefit him the most.
“My take on the “revolution” in the Middle East is that this has been plotted and orchestrated by marxists who are working in tandem with Iran (Muslim Brotherhood) to overthrow all Sunni regimes and replace them with Shia puppets that can be controlled by the Hitler in Iran.”
Well, the Muslim Brotherhood and Al Qaeda are both Sunni groups, but of course they do have a common enemies with Iran: both the West and the “moderate” Sunni governments. However, I think any cooperation between the two is probably an arrangement of convenience. They might work together against common foes, but I doubt Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood want to help set up Shia puppet states. Their goal is a Pan-Islamic caliphate, not the creation of a new Persian superpower.
Can he prove it?
He's Sunni Muslim.

The Shia element might be right, but Gadaffi an Libya are already socialist (strongly leaning toward communist). Gadaffi was personally and admirer of Egypt's Nasser and he cheered when Sadat was assassinated. But post 9/11, Gadaffi has been the West's "best friend" in the ME until his people turned on him recently. We've turned on him even quicker than we did Mubarek -- but it's not working out the way we thought.
OK, the Shia lean can’t be right because he’s Sunni. I just contradicted myself.
Despots tend to believe that they are god.
Can I get a “BULLSH*T”????
Is it possible that Gaddahfi "has something" on Obama and is blackmailing him? Recall that Obama's mentor, who Obama himself said deeply influenced the way he (Obama) sees the world, was a guest of Muammar Ghaddafi (along with fellow extremist nitwit, Farrakhan, who spoke glowingly of the Mad Dog of the Desert). Was there perhaps a communication between them, or connection between them, that might embarrass the Abdicator-in-Chief?
News Flash folks: ALL dictator’s sons want to be DICTATORS! That is ALL they are trained to be.
