The U.N. announced that it wants a no-fly zone over Libya.
This is something should have happened three weeks ago when the Libyan liberators were close to Tripoli instead of having Libyan government thugs beating back the liberators to the inch of their lives.
From Fox News: The United Nations Security Council approved a resolution Thursday evening authorizing a no-fly zone over Libya and other measures military action against Libya.
The vote was 10-0 with five abstentions, including Russia and China.
The United States, France and Britain pushed for speedy approval because Muammar al-Qaddafi's forces are advancing toward opposition-held Benghazi. The Libyan leader vowed Thursday night to oust the rebels from their eastern stronghold.
French Prime Minister Francois Fillon said if the resolution was approved, France would support military action against Qaddafi within hours. The U.S. said it was preparing for action. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/03/17/seeks-resolution-authorizing-wide-range-strikes-libya/
The leader of this action was France and President Sarkozy. Barack Obama had one thumb up his butt and his other in his mouth. He had no clue what was going on and even Hillary Clinton had enough of Obama's incompetence. From the Thedaily.com: Fed up with a president “who can’t make his mind up” as Libyan rebels are on the brink of defeat, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is looking to the exits.At the tail end of her mission to bolster the Libyan opposition, which has suffered days of losses to Col. Moammar Gadhafi’s forces, Clinton announced that she’s done with Obama after 2012 — even if he wins again.“Obviously, she’s not happy with dealing with a president who can’t decide if today is Tuesday or Wednesday, who can’t make his mind up,” a Clinton insider told The Daily. “She’s exhausted, tired.”

Does President even have a clue about anything presidential, other than doing a basketball bracket?
