Neoconservative and warmonger Lindsey Graham gives Obama some serious cover and defends the "humanitarian mission," suggesting that NATO, the US, France and Great Britian should keep on bombing Trippoli and killing civilians in order to protect them from Gaddafi, who is the next Hitler.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said on “Meet the Press” Sunday that “Congress should sort of shut up and not empower Gaddafi.”
Huh?
Graham reasoned that the War Powers Act is unconstitutional, and that the Libyan leader needed to be taken down.
“The president’s done a lousy job of communicating and managing our involvement in Libya, but I will be no part of an effort to defund Libya or to try to cut off our efforts to bring Gaddafi down,” he said. “If we fail against Gaddafi, that’s the end of NATO.”
