"But we don't regret the war in Iraq" (Kevin Lamarque/Reuters)
So much for American exceptionalism: Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham
thanked everybody but the United States for "ending the Qaddafi regime." And just to make themselves clear,
they added:
Americans can be proud of the role our country has played in helping to defeat Qaddafi, but we regret that this success was so long in coming due to the failure of the United States to employ the full weight of our airpower.
I guess President Obama should have done it more quickly, like the way Bush did when he took care of Osama bin Laden after 9/11.
