Shortened headline. Cretz, appointed in 2007 by Bush, was ambassador before Stevens. His colorful comments about Gaddafi were part of his duties. I've been wondering how big a part Cretz, Stevens and the Benghazi consular operation played in the overthrow of Gaddafi. If it was a substantial role it may be why the White House has attempted a cover-up. With the Arab Spring turning into a nightmare in Egypt and Syria, and Obama's proven ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, he can't afford more revelations of his intrigues.

Gaddafi sounds pretty normal to me

I meant to say in the early stages of unrest, prior to direct U.S. military involvement.

Something of a disappointment, actually.

Is Condi aware of his two timing?

Cretz wasn’t so much as causality as a beneficiary. Stevenson was the causality.

I visited a couple of Ukraine towns this past year. The 20ish girls are knockouts. They are all beautiful. But when we went to the markets the older ones 40-50+ weren’t anything like the the yoots. There is a reason why mother nature makes the women beautiful in the child bearing age group and why the men in that same age group don’t need Viagra. :o)
