Muammar Gaddafi ‘killed’ as Sirte falls
A soldier who said he captured Gaddafi himself has told a BBC the colonel shouted “Don’t shoot! Don’t shoot!” after he was discovered hiding in a hole in District 2 in Sirte.

Why do these badasses always wind up hiding in holes?

    As usual, massive confusion in the press, he’s dead, he’s alive but badly wounded, he was shot in the leg(s).

    Give ‘em 48 hours to get the story straight.

    An interesting speculation I heard on the radio this AM while driving to work – the talking head said that he is wanted for International war crimes, but if he is tried there he’ll end up in a posh jail cell in the Hague. If Libya (and he really *hasn’t* assumed ambient temperature) he’ll get true Justice…

    That picture looks like a promotional shot for The Walking Dead.

    To answer Bob’s obviously rhetorical question:

    The hole is the natural habitat for vermin…

    just watched the video on YouTube of his carcass out in the street and it appears that he’s not just merely dead – he’s really, most sincerely, dead.

    Remember those pictures of Obama and Gaddafi or Obama and Mubarack in the Oval office. Did Obama give them the kiss of death? When is Obama going kiss Pelosi, Reid or Schumer? Hiding in a hole is just their natural instinct for their genus ratttus. The same genus infests the WHouse and Congress.
    Enjoy Obama kissing the green movement.
