Helping Khaddafi? How Bush!

Just when you think you can't get more disappointed in the behavior of President Bush during his reign, the Khaddafi / CIA connection comes up. Oh boy..... Now when the Bush - Chaney ticket came to power, it wasn't a far stretch to think that oil and war would be on our national agenda. Of course, those turned out to be the right businesses to be in, unless you were an average American who had to pay the de facto oil tax or the actual war machine tax. Ouch! I still laugh at the wag who likened Bush attacking Iraq after 9/11 to President Roosevelt aveging Pearl Harbor by attacking Pearl Bailey! But this Khaddafi thing is upsetting and yet not surprising. Listening to the screeds of Dick Cheney trying to justify his behavior in his recent book makes one realize just how far removed we are from the statesmen so sorely needed in this time of economic and political revulsion. THe disappointment of a non engaging Barrack Obama is chilled by the yahoo free for all that is the Republican presidential front runner competition.
Is there a statesman in the house......please! We need one now more than ever.
