Re: Peeling back the veil in Libya
You know well, he was referring simply to abuse of powers. But I have to agree, there is no comparison here.

Re: Peeling back the veil in Libya
I concur. Even our worst politicians, regardless of your definition of "worst", were not as bad as the typical warlord/dictator.

Re: Peeling back the veil in Libya
Dividing the nation. Ruining the middle class. Walking out of talks. Running a tab for alcoholic beverages while flying on official business and claiming it for expenses back to the GAO. Dereliction of duty. Using political passage to avert DUI. Having a state funded employee as driver to prevent yet another drunk driving incident. $17,000 for entertainment system used in private chambers. And on it goes. Not much difference really, if you know where to look.
The real difference is we willingly pay these people to do these kinds of things, and call it democracy.

Re: Peeling back the veil in Libya
That said, during Bush we discovered the US does torture people. Not sure about burning their faces.

Re: Peeling back the veil in Libya
Strange, I didn't know Gaddafi's wife was a politician, or Gaddafi for that matter. It's a HUUUUUUUUGGGGGGEEEEEEE stretch of a comparison.
