2. It did not either, but I am not sure whether I was mad at the president, the media, or the bloggers.
(a little bit of everything, I guess).

I was already frustrated a couple days ago, when I saw Haas's oped in WSJ glorified on DU. The article was pretty much that Libya did not matter, so why should we care, while it was important to save the Saudi regime and to destabilize Iran. I am not sure that, given the size of Libya, a no-fly zone is something doable, but using the same realpolitik that created the slaughter of the Shia in Iraq, should not be an option, particularly if you have pushed for the upheaval in the first place.

As for the presser, what I got from DU was the question about Manning. Aside that, nothing apparently matters.
