"In this effort, the United States is prepared to act as part of an international coalition. American leadership is essential, but that does not mean acting aloneāit means shaping the conditions for the international community to act together."
In India...moments after criticizing Obama after moments earlier saying she wouldn't criticize Obama, Sarah Palin talked about the "rich tradition" in America of weighing in on the side of those fighting for freedom.
Apparently she forgot about the several dozen times we weighed in on the side of dictatorial oppression in Latin America and the Middle East. On the whole, the US has "weighed in" on the side of dictators more than on the side of freedom.

FOX News re-posts a TheHill.com article about Michael Moore tweeting criticisms of Obama's response to Libya. Apparently, they think this is newsworthy.
So is Michael Moore now a friend of FOX, a-la the enemy of my enemy? Is FOX trying to discredit Moore even further in the eyes of FOX viewers by pointing out his 'hypocrisy'? (remember, for many conservatives, the party IS the ideology, and adherence means compromising ones beliefs and thus ones integrity).
Or, is FOX trying to give the impression that "even the liberals disagree with Obama"?...as if disagreement is prima facie weakness.
I don't know. I'd be curious to hear other takes on why FOX suddenly finds Michael Moore's opinions newsworthy.
