And we need to follow Libya. He made some surgical strikes in Libya, not a ten year old war like W. Then he had the Europeans work to achieve his goal of removing Gadaffi. And it is being reported that Gadaffi is ready to quit and go into exile. All this through a extremely limited military involvement by the US and more of diplomatic pressure. That is one of his great successes and in keeping with the expectations of the world nations when they awarded him with the Nobel Peace prize. They rewarded not his deeds but their hopes and faith in him. He removed the most dangerous and violent man (Osama) with violence and thereby saved many nations. He dragged Gadaffi to the negotiating table and is soon going to have him deposed.

Obama's handling of Libya has been nothing short of brilliant. He gets all the credit and the Euros are doing the work. Yesterday, he announced that Bashar of Syria must step down. Two hours later, all the leaders of Europe said the same thing. In the meantime, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the UAE have recalled their ambassadors. Coincidence? I don't think so. It was all behind the scenes manuevering by the Obama administration.

Do the leftie mafia give him any credit? Only when you extract it from them with much effort............and then their praise is niggardly and faint. Like I've said before, Obama bashing has become a sport.......much more fun than praising him.
