Fox and Friends is asking the same question right now...
How’d you feel being a combat soldier in Afghanistan about now?
Neglected, Unappreciated, used by this Marxist punk for what ends?
OBAMA: We know the Assad regime was responsible. ... The facts cannot be denied.
THE FACTS: The Obama administration has not laid out any proof Assad was behind the attack.
OBAMA: So even though I possess the authority to order military strikes, I believed it was right in the absence of a direct or imminent threat to our security to take this debate to Congress.
THE FACTS: Obamas statement that he has the authority to launch military action is par for the course for presidents, and historically disputed by Congress. The law gives the president the power to act without congressional approval in cases of national emergency for up to 60 days. In such a case, the president must consult with Congress. And if the deadline passes without congressional authorization, the president has 30 additional days to remove troops.
But what constitutes a national emergency and what consultation means remain subjects of continued disputes.
Only Odumbell could use PRIME TIME to declare himself a stupidass
He is too dumb to know when to declare victory and shut up
When Russia stepped in and said they would remove chemical weapons from syria nobama should have said “OK then” and shut the hell up.
But his goal is to install the Muslims Brotherhood, so he is still working on a way to do that.
I didn’t watch him last night. Is that what he said, not to vote?
So if Congress agrees to the plan to disarm Syria...they will also be agreeing to giving BO the authority to bomb.
Caww astutely noted on another discussion thread this observation. The delay tactic, speechifying, etc. is to ultimately get the authority to strike. The reworking of the resolution will give him the ability to strike as we all know Syria will not be able to round up all the chemical weapons since some of them...an unknown amount of them...are in rebel hands. Syria/Russia won't be able to account for them all.
“he DEMANDS that Congress NOT VOTE”
The only thing that pisses me off here is that Bohener is taking orders from the Clown.
If he had put this to a vote already this argument would be over and we would be back talking about defunding obamacare.
My question is who still listens to this buffoon?
