Democracy rears its ugly head...

Pity David Cameron.

The Brit PM had such a boner for justice and the rule of law that he was ready to let the cruise missiles fly a couple of days ago.

But, just as it was all coming together, just as Cameron was on the verge of earning his spurs... his glory train gets derailed by a parliamentary vote!

That's got to hurt...

Gaddafi's niggers

One thing you don't see a lot of is politicos from the Nations of Virtue taking any responsibility for what's going on in Libya today.

It's like, OK, we freed them from the yoke of Gaddafi, and good for us because we are really really great, but the rest of the story is in the hands of the Libyans.

And how is that going?

Apparently billions in oil revenues have already disappeared, and not into some wacky public infrastructure fantasy like the "great man-made river".

The upcoming democratic elections have been postponed because our bum-boys in the NTC have determined that their fellow citizens are not quite ready to shoulder the burden of democracy.

Maybe later.

And the ethnic cleansing of black Libyans continues apace.

How many Libyans are better off today?

Certainly not the black ones.

Not the Arab ones either.

But our friends in the NTC seem to be doing quite well for themselves!
