“Beyond Wimpy”: Bill O’Reilly Rails On President Obama’s Libya Speech

On tonight’s Factor, Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly discussed President Barack Obama‘s speech on the current turmoil in Libya, calling it “beyond wimpy.”

Wary of the decision to have Secretary of State Hilary Clinton discuss Libya in Geneva (“What are they going to discuss?” he mused. “How bad Gaddafi is?”), he asked Fox News strategic analyst Lt. Col. Ralph Peters to weigh in on why Obama didn’t speak out about Gaddafi from “day one.” As Peters sees it, Obama simply doesn’t fully understand foreign policy, nor does he seem keen on making decisive moves.

Oh, and his speech today? “Mega wimpy,” said Peters. O’Reilly agreed wholeheartedly, saying the President should have taken a much firmer stance against Gaddafi, even referring to Libya’s leader as a terrorist.
