Fact Checking Obama's Libya Speech

Wow I am surprised. The AP actually called RAT on O'Barry.

On our "transfer to NATO": "In transferring command and control to NATO, the U.S. is turning the reins over to an organization dominated by the U.S., both militarily and politically. In essence, the U.S. runs the show that is taking over running the show."

On Obama's claim we are just there to save lives: "....the scope of the mission appears to be expanding and the end game remains unclear."

On Obama "unilaterally authorizing a military attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent threat to the nation": "Obama's defense secretary, Robert Gates, said Sunday that the crisis in Libya "was not a vital national interest to the United States...."

Ouch.
