Obama Walking On Eggshells With Libya Crisis

One thing we know for sure, is that foreign countries, and Americans, typically don't support United States  military efforts when it comes to issues abroad.  The typical consensus is that we have no business impressing upon them our views, and we shouldn't be playing peacekeeper every single time something bad happens.

Obama and Clinton are probably butting heads right now because Clinton most likely wants to tell it like it is, and Obama wants to play it safe to preserve his chances for re-election.  Regardless, the Libya crisis is now at the world stage, and everyone is watching.  This is Obama's chance to become a hero, or a zero.  You can probably expect him to stand in the middle, whereas he can adjust his final speech on the issue later on.  Let's watch and see; should be interesting.
