<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;"><DIV>I thought the article was interesting and timely, but I haven't devoted the time to studying this matter.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I don't know if <FONT color=#000000>all of the allegations about Quaddafi are true. Perhaps the bishops in North Africa are a more reliable source of information than Obama!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My general impression is that the U.S. should <STRONG>NOT</STRONG> be involved in this war, in which we have no apparant national interest, and certainly <STRONG>NOT</STRONG> without the concurrence of Congress. I don't believe the leaders in the House and Senate were even informed in advance of Obama's military actions.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If the bishops in North Africa are opposed to the war too, I think that should cause all of us to question the rationale that has been given to us for American intervention.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I guess it is possible Obama might be doing the right thing in Libya, but my opinion of him is so negative, my instinct is to oppose <U>everything</U> he does.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Right now, I can't think of a single thing he's done with which I agree. There are some things worse than others, of course, but I can't think of a single issue where he is on the right side.</DIV>
