Doubling Down on Stupid

This will all go down better if you are singing "Send in the Clowns."

• The U.S. is now at war with Libya.  And Qaddafi promises a long war.  And I would not at all be surprised if al-Qaeda is rushing operatives to Tripoli right now.  Hello, recruitment opportunity!
• Southern Beale's reaction.
• Anna van Z (Mills River Progressive)'s coverage of weekend protests and reaction.
• John Shuck at Shuck and Jive calls shenanigans and backs this with a quote from Reinhold Niebuhr.
• And Comrade Misfit prices a missile and reminds us that those on the right do not consider that as budget-busting.
