    Obama's message resonates around the world

    [rquoter]Libyan Strongman Qaddafi Weighs In on American Presidential Race, Citing Democratic Call for 'Change'

    Libyan strongman Col. Muammar al-Qaddafi weighed in on America's presidential campaign, specifically commenting on both Democratic rivals' repeated calls for "change."

    "I've seen that in America, a candidate who wants people to vote for him keeps talking about change," Qaddafi said earlier this week in a televised address on Libyan TV, an obvious reference to Barack Obama.

    "They all keep saying 'change, change,' " he continued, adding Hillary Clinton to his reference. "They want to change America and its current political system. They want to make a change in their lives. They say their system is a failure, that their government is a failure, and that their elections are a failure."

    Qaddafi offered up Libya as a model for "change," predicting that "the whole world will return to the model of the republic of the masses, to communes, to popular security, to popular defense, to popular capitalism, and to popular socialism.

    "The whole world will return to the Libyan model," he said.

    Does this mean Obama didn't get the all important Qaddafi endorsement?

    So you are saying Obama is secular pan-arab nationalist who paradoxically thinks other arab leaders are "poor half wits"?

    We need to keep track of the most ridiculous bassobama threads and have an awards ceremony in November.

    Just one of Qaddafi's many incoherent ramblings, he's not even running Libya anymore, his obnoxious son is.

    I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the REPUBLIC for which it stands, one nation under God, with liberty and justice for all.
