The Hill ^ | May 6, 2013 | Jeremy Herb

Senate Foreign Relations Chairman Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) on Monday introduced a bill that would provide arms to vetted rebel groups.

Menendez’s legislation would give arms and military training to opposition groups that had been vetted, as well as provide $250 million for basic services and security in a post-Assad Syria.

The bill also includes new sanctions against those providing arms or oil to Syrian President Bashar Assad’s regime.

Menendez’s bill comes as the Obama administration is reconsidering its opposition to providing arms to the Syrian rebels.

Twas Brillig and the slithy Toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe,
All mimsy were the borogoves
And the momeraths outgrabe.

Beware the Jabberwock, my son,
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jub-jub bird and shun
The frumious Baudersnatch

Stuff like this (above) makes sense
To Dhimmicrats who want to give our money,
That we borrow from Red China, to al-quaeda,
So they can shoot our troops who don’t

Want to be there and follow stupid rules,
In order that we not offend the muzzie savages,
Who shoot them in the back
The first chance they get.

Oh yeah, did they finally find enough money to re-open America’s House to America?

Wait. A couple of weeks ago, our existential threat according to McCain and his little Smithers was North Korea.

Tune in next Sunday ... as Captain Queeg tries to start another war. Eventually, he'll succeed.
