WASHINGTON (AP) -- There may be less than meets the eye to President Barack Obama's statements Monday night that NATO is taking over from the U.S. in Libya and that U.S. action is limited to defending people under attack there by Moammar Gadhafi's forces. In transferring command and control to NATO, the U.S. is turning the reins over to an organization dominated by the U.S., both militarily and politically. In essence, the U.S. runs the show that is taking over running the show.
With Obama, it is nothing but misinformation and outright lies. Here is Obama trying to "have it both ways."
We are every bit as involved in Libya today as we will be at the end of the week - after NATO has "taken over" the command of that war.
And why are we in Libya and not Yemen (where more than a 100 citizens have been killed by their ruler) or in Syria, where thousands have been killed by that countries leadership over the years? Why? Because we are losing the Afghan War and Obama needs a victory.
