Buying the Presidency: $700 million, Bankrupting America: $9 trillion, Gaddafi Endorsing you: Priceless


In his U.N. speech today, Moammar Gaddafi called Barack Obama,"our son" and "our Obama," and said, "The election of Obama is the beginning of change." Gaddafi also said, "We are content and happy if Obama can stay forever as the president." It doesn't get any better than having a despot endorse you in front of a world audience. Nice going, President Obama.

The Washington Post reported:

But when it came to America's 44th president, Gaddafi offered only warm words, calling him "our son" and "our Obama," and saying, "The election of Obama is the beginning of change."

"We are content and happy if Obama can stay forever as the president," Gaddafi said during a rambling, 95-minute speech during which he read from notes, exhausted at least one of his interpreters, threw the U.N. schedule into disarray, and put much of his audience to sleep.
