That pretty much sums things up.

In the meantime, Fox News reports:

The United States suspended operations at its embassy in Libya Saturday and evacuated its diplomats to neighboring Tunisia under U.S. military escort amid a significant deterioration in security in Tripoli as fighting intensified between rival militias, the State Department said.

“Due to the ongoing violence resulting from clashes between Libyan militias in the immediate vicinity of the U.S. Embassy in Tripoli, we have temporarily relocated all of our personnel out of Libya,” spokeswoman Marie Harf said.

No news on how well the president shot.

Video: Eric Holder asked if Fast and Furious is a distraction for Obama

http://twitter.com/#!/KerryPicket/status/182997616215330816

From Washington Times:

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder does not believe his handling of operation “Fast & Furious” has become a distraction to President Barack Obama. He confirmed this to the Washington Times on Thursday night in Washington. A.G. Holder would not comment on when he thought the Inspector General would release her report on the botched gun walking operation.

Two House Democrats have already called upon the Justice Department’s Acting Inspector General Cynthia Schnedar to release her report on her investigation of Fast and Furious before the November elections.

Remember when Eric Holder sent his machine guns to Mexico for Spring Break?

Israeli spies detained in Libya for speaking Welsh

http://twitter.com/#!/CraigR3521/status/182244232214478848

From Jihad Watch:

Ironically, they also work for Iran’s PressTV. You can’t make this stuff up. “Misrata Brigade snatch two journalists, detain them in “cramped” bunker in Tripoli, accuse the two men of being Israeli spies, BBC reports,” from the Jerusalem Post, March 20 (thanks to Karl):

Two journalists from the UK were snatched by a Libyan militia after members of the group mistook the Welsh language for Hebrew, the BBC reported on Tuesday.

Go read the whole thing. And if you don’t think it’s funny, please write and tell us why.
