The Man who shot Reagan = Free ?

CNN: Reports that John W. Hinckley Jr the man that nearly killed President Ronald Reagan in March of 1981 could soon be free from a mental hospital. The Obama Administration should make sure that this does not happen, its not fair that Hinckley should go free while those that took bullets on that day still have the wounds, an example being Reagan’s Press Secretary. It is just that Hinckley should have the benefits of being free while Reagan’s Press Secretary has to battle each day. This would be national shame if Hinckley was to be freed, why not send him to Cuba, nice prison there from reports.

Arming the Libyan Rebels - Heated Debate in the US

The New York Times: Reports that a heated debate has developed within the Obama Administration about the arming of the Easter Libyan rebels. Well folks this could be very academic if Gaddafi forces destroy the rebels over the next few days, this is not some dusty academic debate, there might not be that much time for President Obama to make a decision or to be marched in to making the right decision by those like Hillary Clinton and his UN Ambassador Susan Rice. One can postulate that there is not enough time to transfer the arms, that revolt in Libya needs boots on the ground, otherwise what is the point. The UK and France might have to decide at the end of the day to get on the ground, this will force POTUS to chose, between supporting his Allies or allowing Gaddafi to stay in power, it can be that simple and brutal folks.

Gaddafi Forces threaten Ajdabiya

Guardian: Reports that Gaddafi forces have reversed the recent success of the Eastern Libyans and are now on the road to Ajdabiya. Thus if the Gaddafi forces take Ajdabiya, the recent Allied attacks in Libyan would have been pointless and worse a waste of money. Lets be clear the Gaddafi forces are second rate if not third rate, but they do have a structure, the rebels are just rebels, it will take months to train them, to create a command structure, thus the argument for troops on the ground, this would end the matter, the Gaddafi forces would get the fact that its OVER, the UK and France would never allow their troops on the ground to lose, even Obama would have no choice, he would have support his Allies, the UK and France, he could not be on the same page as Gaddafi and get re-elected next year. Thus time for the UK and France to call the Obama bluff, even he would not be able to defend not supporting the UK and France on the ground, its brutal politics at the end of the day. The UN resolution 1973 does not prevent a limited boots on the ground operation, the Allies of the willing should send in troops and clear this mess up fast. Otherwise Gaddafi wins and Obama is out in 2012.

The Libyan Front

Telegraph: Reports that the Eastern Libyan rebels have been pushed out of the oil town of Ras Lanuf. This is what you get when you have a limited strategy folks, if not serious and deadly it would be a farce, the rebels advancing and then on the retreat. The Oval Office and No. 10 will have to look at the domestic consequences of this action, while the UK is going through the biggest cuts since World War 2 it is in a second war that has no end. The US is fourteen trillion in debt and is in three Wars, Afghanistan, Iraq and of late Libya. Thus can the Obama, Cameron afford a long war, how can they justify cuts at home if they are spending million every week on Libya, to fight a farcical war in many respects. This blog is calling for limited small scale boots on the ground operation, lets finish off Colonel Gaddafi and allow the Libyan people to elect who they want, its called democracy. Otherwise as Bush 43, Blair and Brown found foreign wars can damage you while in office and be drag on your reputation after you leave office. Lets WIN this if we are going to WIN this WAR.
