What's In A Name?

With the rebel forces temporarily (we hope) stalled in Tripoli, it looks like we will be posting about their genocidal ex-leader for a while still.

So - what is the correct spelling? Various organizations spell it Gaddafi, or Khaddafi, or Kaddafi or something else. It looks like we'll have to step in.

Henceforth the style manual here at the Sandwich Shop will recommend "Puff Daffy". So let it be written, so let it be done...

Teed Off About Libya

Now that Libyan rebels are actually in Tripoli and fighting nears the Khaddafi compound, the Least Concerned With Foreign Policy President Ever has stepped up his anti-Moammar rhetoric.
"The momentum against the Gaddafi regime has reached a tipping point. Tripoli is slipping from the grasp of a tyrant..."
(You say "Gaddafi", we say "Khaddafi", let's kill the monster off...)

Hopefully Hillary has been paying attention and working the phones to set up what happens after the mass murderer's corpse is done being dragged by its heels through the streets. Because Someone Else is playing golf and ordering take-out seafood.

In the immortal words of Jean Paul Sartre, 'Au revoir, gopher'.
