Libyans Turn To The President For Help--But Not To Obama

Remember that billboard in Minnesota?


Now it looks like there are those in Libya who miss his George Bush senior as well:

Libyan rebels are begging for the international community to establish a no fly zone in the skies over Libya. One soldier in the rebellion called upon the President of the United States to come to the aid of the Libyan people.

Not, however, the sitting President:

"'Bring Bush! Make a no fly zone, bomb the planes,' shouted soldier-turned-rebel Nasr Ali, referring to a no-fly zone imposed on Iraq in 1991 by then U.S. President George Bush."
It's more likely the reference is to the more recent Bush, who removed Saddam.
As opposed to Bush, what has Obama done that would make Libyans think he would help them?

Instead, Libyans apparently associate Obama with a different president:


Can you blame them?
