In other Libya related news, check out these idiots who planned an assassination by mail. Much deserving of our Stupid of the Day Award.

Good Old Qaddafi #2
The only good thing about having a lunatic dictator for a ruler of a rogue country, is the inordinate amount of blogging material provided.
So, for your (and our) periodic dose of entertainment, we present to you Good Old Qaddafi at the UN. He made an extra effort to appear this year, for the first time ever, to celebrate 40 years in office!
I'm sure most of you have either heard or read about his antics at the UN this past week. My absolute favorite part is his rant about the Taliban and how that is, in his view, comparable to the Vatican, yes the Vatican, you read right. The thought goes on to venture into how Iraq should have a civil war, after all both the US and Spain had civil wars and turned out fine.
The best part about the whole presentation is the paper on which his notes are written. I mean, SERIOUSLY? Could he not have used decent paper at least, and not appeared to have torn these out of his grand child's school notebook? Here's CNN's Jeanne Moos's take on it.
In other Qaddafi related news, he was apparently looking for a place to stay at while in the US. As it turns out, New Jersey turned down his request to pitch a tent there. Here's Letterman's take on it.
In other sexually-deprived, America-hating, self-righteous, egomaniac dictator news, Hugo Chavez of Venezuela managed to have a little chat with a reporter from Fox News. Check out his response to a Holocaust/Ahmadinejad related question. I can't say I disagree with his assessment of Fox News though!
On the other hand, Ahmadinejad's speech was a disappointment. No antics or pompous rants and definitely no quotable moments for this blogger. What a shame.

Good Old Qaddafi
Good old Qaddafi, always good for a laugh.
In a video conference with Georgetown University students yesterday, he gave the world some great quotes to remember him by:
Apparently, Israeli's and Palestinians should live in a united state called "Isratine." Creative, huh?
Oh, and the US & Obama should give Osama bin Laden a chance to apologize
"I think Osama bin Laden is a person who can be given a chance...Maybe he wants peace."
Hey, everybody deserves a second chance. Maybe his chants of "Death to Amreeka!" really spoke of a sad, lonely childhood and his own lack of self-confidence?
My favorite?
"If you want to preserve this group, the Jews as an ethnic group, Palestine is not really the right place. The Middle East is a sea of Arabs...Take them to Alaska or Honolulu or the Hawaiian islands or the Pacific islands and they can live peacefully in an isolated setting."
Genius! Why didn't we think of that earlier?? All the jews can just move to Honolulu! What's not to like? Sunshine, beautiful beaches, coconut bras?? Who wants the Holy Land anyway?
If only he'd thought of this in 1948....
