"I have been a member here for many years and I have never seen so much hatred for the President and anything and everything he does."

My critique of him has to do with the fact that this should have been done a week ago. Our Naval assets should have been used to evacuate our personnel, not a ferry!! Other countries have been using their naval forces to evacuate their personnel and we rented a ferry. Is that not weak or what?

Our leader should be leading (instead of Cameron) on this issue. He should be putting a coalition together of NATO countries to implement a no fly zone. It should already be done. They should also have ships on standby to assist in any humanitarian concerns. This is a chance to show the people that we are for their liberty and independence. Instead, he's coming to the show in the final scene. That's not a formula for winning over the people of Libya.

“He should have done it a week ago.” I don’t know if this is true or not. From the map above it seems we didn’t have much in the way of assets in the Mediterannian a week ago. I see two ships in the Red Sea, headed for Suez? Were they busy with Somali pirates a week ago? Weren’t 4 Americans murdered off Somalia a week ago? Did Cameron already have more assets there a week ago? Armchair analysis is for the lazy minded. Let’s have some facts before we second guess our leaders, whoever they may be or have been.
