President Obama deserves credit for Libya
Because if it had gone badly, if Gadhafi had emerged from this triumphant and perhaps stronger, the media talking heads sure as heck would have put 100% of the blame on the Administration's... what's that term they like to use?... oh yes... "Failed Policy".

4. Obama will either get the blame or NO credit, regardless of
how it pans out. Isn't that sad? :(

5. If Obama cured cancer the GOP would criticize him for increasing the world population
That is the way it is going to work.

We had better get used to it.

6. Does he want it?
No guarantees that it will turn out well. They may downplay the credit part until there are signs of sanity and stability.

9. He deserves credit for expanding Bush's Unitary Executive Theory
This war was waged in direct contravention of the War Powers Act and the Constitution.
