Daddy Dearest

Gaddafi, who has fathered seven sons, has apparently decided to adopt an eighth--Barack Gaddafi. By John Hayward on the Human Events site:

The Associated Press reports that Libyan dictator and fashion icon Moammar Qaddafi has sent a letter to American president and golf enthusiast Barack Obama, asking Obama to end the “unjust war against a small people of a developing country.” I didn’t realize Libyans were that small. Apparently they’re like Ewoks or hobbits. This is further proof that we should have learned more about them before we became involved in their civil war.

The three page letter, which the White House has confirmed is authentic, is not so much an offer of surrender as a demand for Obama to surrender, couched in sniveling language. “You are a man of enough courage to annul a wrong and mistaken action,” said Qaddafi, apparently unaware that the White House would have to forward his letter to New York, because Obama fled Washington on the verge of a government shutdown...

Never mind New York. Considering that Obama took his marching orders re Libya from the Arab League, Gaddafi would have to forward his letter to Cairo.
