Gaddafi is dead, as I’m sure you’ve heard. All the way back to the 1980s, Ronald Reagan even waged war on this man, ultimately seeking an assassination. More than two decades later those involved in the United Nations’ efforts to support the Libyan rebels and their cause have successfully eliminated this tyrant. Although it was a collectively international effort, our own president has no qualms about saying “your welcome”.

President Barack Obama might encourage adults to suck off the teat of the government as awkwardly as one may find a twelve-year-old boy being breastfed by his mother, he may discourage hard work and those who are far more enterprising than himself by wanting to tax them into an oblivion that would absolutely stun all of his hungry mouths and the American economy at large, he may constantly contradict himself, as so many American presidents do, but this Nobel Peace Prize laureate is killing the competition. Under his administration we are killing some serious international obstacles.

I am not insinuating anything in particular, but it is sort of ironic that the one crowning achievement our president has, which everyone can agree on, is that, under his administration, our most serious threats are dropping dead at a rate that few other presidents can surpass---and with a Nobel Peace Prize paid forward in the first year of his term.

Ironic.

Speaking in Sirt, marking the twenty-forth anniversary of Reagan’s attack on Lybia, Gaddafi had this to say of Barack Obama:

"At the time, we were the target of the American cannon, the American navy challenged us in the gulf of Sirt and attacked us all along Libya's shores. America tested Libya, and the Libyan people resisted the large country, but today, thank God, the difference is great."

How did that work out for you, Gaddafi?

"Now, ruling America is a black man from our continent, an African from Arab descent, from Muslim descent, and this is something we never imagined – that from Reagan we would get to Barakeh Obama."

One more.

"I urge all peoples to give him this chance and to support this policy, because America is a country that, when its policy is bad – harms the world, and when it is good – it helps the world."

Okay, one more.

"…The dream that Obama has for a world free of nuclear weapons will come true. This is something that no previous American president has proposed. Obama is a man who opposes wars that previous American presidents were entangled in; he has declared that he will withdraw from Afghanistan and Iraq – something which has never been proposed before."

I promise, this is the last one.

"The Arabs hate America, there is no doubt. There is not an Arab that loves America, and even the leaders who the United States considers allies or friends – hate it. The external love is merely hypocrisy or pragmatism. The reason for this is clear – Palestine."

Ironic.

832.2 miles to go.

Here is what happened one year ago on Day52.
