Gaddaffi: "Well, an airline here and there, a disco here and there, but I'm bein' mostly pretty good, mam."

Minor facts like that aren't important to you when they stand in the way of a good smear.
- RogerStrong, on 09/03/2008, -3/+8That's your response? "He's a totalitarian tinpot dictator, but he's not committing mass murder outside his borders THIS week"?
- DreadPirate, on 09/03/2008, -3/+6No, I'm pointing out the fact that there is more to the situation than Yellowcakewalk's lame post. Yes he's a dictator, but he's at least one that has made steps in the right direction. I'm sorry if that's too complex a concept for you to understand.
- RogerStrong, on 09/03/2008, -2/+8So then why is Cuba pariah nation in the eyes of the Republicans? If they were to blow a few jetliners, start a nuclear weapons program, maybe blow up a disco or two - and then stop - would that make them OK? Would that make criticism of them a "smear" too?

Poor lil Moammar...so misunderstood.
He prolly had a bad childhood, ya know? Ineffective father, drunken abusive mother, the middle child, his 6th grade science project was laughed at - you know, the standard liberal "But it isn't his fault!!" mantra.
Can't we let by-gones be by-gones? Even tho many of us are old enough to remember when the man was a global terrorist, (before the word 'terrorist' was a household word) let's just give him props for not killing quite so many, quite so openly, as he once did. After all, if WE don't encourage his growth & development - - who will? I mean, he is trying...uh, or something.

- Minarchian, on 09/04/2008, -2/+5With Rice visiting Moammar Gadhafi of Libya, a known terrorist State, doesn't that make us terrorists?
That's what Bush said "You're either with us or against us".
In reality, we should have diplomatic relations with all and not get involved in their internal affairs. But with the neo-cons and neo-liberals both are one and the same. - poprocksandsoda, on 09/04/2008, -1/+3What people seem to overlook is that behind this "Leader" are people who weren't even alive during the events of the 70's and 80's. I think it's time we move on and embrace countries that move towards becoming good members of the world community.
