His love for the "African president of America" was bountiful that he went as far as urging that Obama stays president forever. When asked why, he retorted that is the yearning of the world and the world will forgive America of all its atrocities so long as President Barack Hussein Obama is still the president. Icheoku queries now that things have fallen apart for Gaddafi and his once "beloved son of Africa" is going tough on his administration which he has declared "illegitimate", what must Maummar Gaddafi be thinking of President Barack Obama now? This becomes imperative as Gaddafi sees the revolution as sectional and al-querida sponsored; and is doing everything within his authority to put the enemies of the state down; afterall when Glen Beck and the Tea Party people marched in Washington demanding to have their country back, President Obama never resigned or quit his office. So Gaddafi reasons that what he is facing is not an uprising from the peoples of Libya but certain disgruntled elements of the society under the influence of some narcotics. Day 15 and marching on, could Gaddafi have survived the insurrection since the Libyan army is still on his side? Anyway, the jury is still out but there are signs that the Libyan strongman's strong-arm is working to upturn the tide, at least for now. But is it a trite position to take that the devil one knows is better than the unknown alternative; go figure!
