Muammar el Qaddafi's Finest Fashions

4fb3.jpg
Colonel Muammar el Qaddafi just spoke on Libyan state television for over an hour and said that he would die in Libya as a martyr. He promised to make unspecified small changes to the government ("constitutional reform") but said that he wouldn't consider stepping down. Amidst all of the chaos, he urged his supporters to defend him: "Come out of your homes, attack them in their dens. Withdraw your children from the streets. They are drugging your children, they are making your children drunk and sending them to hell." He also threatened protesters when he said, "Anyone who undermines the sovereignty of the state will be punished by death." This probably wasn't the best strategy for an embattled dictator; he should've just shown off some of his sweet outfits, because he has many.

This purple number is pretty stunning. Is that also a purple tint we see in those specs? It may be little too matchy-matchy for us, but we love the effort! Who says Qaddafi isn't forward thinking? That eyewear innovation is astounding!

I was just thinking about his "Flyness"! Too bad he'll go out losing. This bit is well done and very funny. Thanks.
