Louie Gohmert: “There was no strategy in Libya other than to take out Qadhafi. Just like President Carter turning his back on the Shah…”

“There was no strategy in Libya other than to take out Qadhafi. Just like President Carter turning his back on the Shah and welcoming Ayatollah Khomeini in, when President Obama took out Qadhafi and, yes, he bombed him into oblivion. We have seen reports that Qadhafi was begging, look, we will just go into exile, and he sent word to the President, if you will just let me leave in peace, I won't ever come back to Libya. Let's leave the country not destroyed, stop the bombing, and I will just leave, but never heard back from Washington. The problem is that President Obama created a failed state in Libya, and it has been the source of destabilizing all of North Africa. I don't know if there is any Member of Congress who has been allowed to have 2\1/2\ hours with the head of intelligence in Egypt as I have, but Egypt is paying heavily for President Obama's wrongheadedness in taking out Qadhafi and completely destabilizing North Africa.”
