I agree with Magda...someone low-down in the backroom boiler propaganda and dirtmaking factory penned this one. Rice is a neocon bitch, but Gadafi loves women around him - so what. Most men do. Even if he had photos of her working out in the gym [which she does alot], or playing tennis or piano - so what?! This dog doesn't bark. 
He probably did like her as much for her oil contacts as any physical or other interest he had in her personally. I'm sure he genuinely was appreciative of a BLACK woman coming to high office in the USA. Gadaffi was a brutal dictator, but he did help many progressive causes sincerely. He was somewhat [not always, for SURE] benign to helpful in helping a hand to poor and struggling - especially non-'Western' downtrodden around the world. Inside his country he was a monster. Despite knowing that, the USA and 'West' courted him and praised him in recent years for 'changing'. He never changed. They looked the other way at his murder, torture and suppression of freedoms, liberty and democracy at home. And they hated him for his progressive support of people in need. I could site many, but he was likely the largest private donor to the ANC and other groups in SA fighting against Aparteit....and he did much other - I think not for any political or economic gain, but out a solidarity. He is a strange mix and a very eccentric personality. Although Tony Blair and Bush Jr. were no less so, except in their dress habits [and that they were malevolent politically, militarily, intelligence-wise BOTH inside their countries and out!]. IMHO.
