First , for anyone who has been a regular reader (and I hope there's more than two that I know of) I have not posted this week due to illness. Instead of getting colds I get bronchitics; I prefer colds but I don't have much say in the matter. I am better but not 100% yet, it only feels like a monkey on my chest instead of a gorilla.
There was another posting that I was working on that I will finish and post soon. And I got another thought provoking comment from Matt that I want to think about more before posting a response. Hopefully, I will be writing something daily this week because I feel like I get rusty when I don't. (insert your own personal joke here).
But now: Did anyone else get a weird sense of Deja vu when President Obama had his press conference about Libya the other day? It really reminded me of when President Bush declared war on Saddam Hussein/Iraq.
The main difference that I heard was that President Obama stressed that the military actions would be a multi-nation coalition. And I really do think it says a lot that even France wants to be a part of it.
I do hope that one of the lessons learned from Iraq will be to remove Ghadaffi from power establish responsible Libyan leadership ASAP and get out.
The President Obama I saw the other day was the leader I think this country needs. And I think is time for him to step up his game and try to seal up the political divide that seems to grow every day. I think tat big the President of compromise and solutions that most people could agree with is just what is needed.
I truly hope President Obama will be that man.
