PM Cameron in Libya

Number 10: Reports on the visit of Coalition PM David Cameron to Libya. The PM stated the following while visiting Libya, “ It’s great to be…in a free Benghazi and a free Libya. Your city was an inspiration to the world. While we are proud of the role that we played to help, we know this was your revolution from your bravery. Now, just as your courage has written the last chapter of Libyan history, so it must write the next one; and your friends in Britain and in France will stand with you as you build your democracy and build your country for the future.”. This is great PR for David Cameron and the French President Nicolas Sarkozy, lets recall President Sarkozy has a election next year, what it is not is a great PR for President Obama, leading from behind means you are behind. The Republicans will clobber the Oval for allowing the UK and France to lead while in many respects the US supplied the know how and the equipment, the idiot who stated that the Obama was leading from behind should get the sack, its like the Bush 43 message of Mission Accomplished in Iraq, if your not in the room or military theatre at victory you didn’t play a part, that is the harsh politics folks, the UK and France look good, not so the Oval under Obama.
