Obama's Weak Response to Libya Unrest

[From article]
"There you have it: an "upset" administration engaged in a "process" over a "tragic event." Is there a better or more pathetic image of a nation in deliberate retreat from great-power status?"

Our response to this crises is shameful. Perhaps Obama would prefer the role of prime minister of let's say A medium sized European country. Makes me suspect the Saudi Royals wanted reassurance we were not really serious about supporting democracy in the Middle East.

If we want to be isolationists again, fine but then we need to pull out of 800 military bases outside the US. We also should get out of Afghanistan, Kuwait, and Iraq. We could also probably find a use for the $500-600 billion we could trim from the military budget.
