#1 Everytime I see a photo of that crackpot, he appears increasingly feminine. I expect to see him in a burka some day soon.

And what's with the female bodyguards?

#3 Nah, he's just criticizing the rest of the Arab countries -- his country is run perfectly. And no doubt all the savants at Columbia nodded their heads wisely in response to his words.

Gaddafis comments came in response to several questions by the Columbia panel asking him to comment on shortcomings in Libyan society. Gaddafi said he was proud of what he considered a complex society and what he says is the worlds only true participatory democracy.

#4 His son's charity was responsible for contacting the Red Cross and getting Mercer and Curry rescued in Afghanistan. I think he's distancing himself from radical Islam, as intrinsically opposed to Gaddafi's preferences, but needs to keep his head and prevent a radical coup. Let him play games, but he could be a necessary ally as the African continent heats up. Maybe the US should barter for some transgender services, as we have excellent physicians.
