Biden Extends National Emergency for Libya
[LibyaReview] US President, Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden
...Candidate for president in 2020. We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women created ... by the — you know — you know, the thing...
has extended the national emergency with respect to Libya by one year, the White House said in a statement on Thursday.

Biden also notified House of Representatives Speaker, Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi
Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. On-again-off-again Speaker of the House. It's not her fault when they lose, but it's her accomplishment when they win. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace and occasional senior... uhhh... moments...
and the Senate leadership in a letter, saying he has determined it necessary to continue the national emergency. The first emergency was declared in February 2011, at the onset of the civil war.

"The situation in Libya continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States," Biden said in an executive order.

"Measures are needed to protect against the diversion of assets or other abuses by members of the Qadaffy family, their associates, and other persons hindering Libyan national reconciliation," the notice noted.

"The national emergency declared on February 25, 2011, must continue in effect beyond February 25, 2021. Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for one year the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13566," the notice reads.

#1 This sounds like an act we need to do away with. None of our business and stay the fuck out of it Obama jr.But I have a feeling e will be involved when we have no reason to be.

#2 Sure was an act of crystalline genius removing the good Col from power. Let's see, he had voluntarily given up his theretofore unknown nuclear program, begun paying down judgements against his regime and started to open his country to outside commerce.

Yeah, we nipped that crisis in the bud alright. Further what a farsighted and creative warning to any other hostile dictator that any moves toward reconciliation on their part will get them a quick and short trip to the desert.

Genius I tells ya. But at this point what difference does it make?
