Libyan strongman Col. Muammar al-Qaddafi weighed in on America's presidential campaign, specifically commenting on both Democratic rivals' repeated calls for "change."

"I've seen that in America, a candidate who wants people to vote for him keeps talking about change," Qaddafi said earlier this week in a televised address on Libyan TV, an obvious reference to Barack Obama.

"They all keep saying 'change, change,' " he continued, adding Hillary Clinton to his reference. "They want to change America and its current political system. They want to make a change in their lives. They say their system is a failure, that their government is a failure, and that their elections are a failure."

Qaddafi offered up Libya as a model for "change," predicting that "the whole world will return to the model of the republic of the masses, to communes, to popular security, to popular defense, to popular capitalism, and to popular socialism.

"The whole world will return to the Libyan model," he said.

I'm sure Barackstar and Thanklewoman would both want to follow the Libyan model.

I'm sure Quaddafi does indeed want change in America as well..

Reagan kicked his ass in the 80s, sent him scurrying under a rock for a good decade or so.

then GW Bush got him to come to the table and give up his nukes, so he definitely has a hate for GOP Presidents.

Oh, this guy. He's the crazy Muslim Reagan air bombed years ago, correct? Probably an Obama man, but that's just a guess. He ought to attend one of those pep rallies and see if he swoons at those empty words as well.

He sounds as fruity as ever:
