You said that Obama is "starting new sh*t." You are wrong. He's trying his hand at meddling in other people's sh*t. It's ignorant to argue semantics, so let's not do that.

We don't need another war, we can't afford to pay our teachers or military personnel what they deserve as it is.

Gaddafi's regime needs to crumble. The Libyans are fighting for basic human rights: food, water, education, representation in government, equality, etc. Things that most of us in the western world take for granted.

It is always about the oil, but hopefully the people of Libya will get a fair deal as well. Some humanity for the opressed would be nice.
