Obama's only doing this because they made Bush do it before going into Iraq. And anyone that thinks that Iraq didn't have WMD is dumb.

Even the chief inspector said "We'll never find them unless they tell us where they are".

IIRC, Bush had 100% to go into Iraq. And don't forget...his was all about UN WMD violations....I think the count was 15.

The gov probably has so much dirt on those two from the NSA spying that the WH can make them do or say anything they want to keep from being ‘exposed’... dirt on all. Blackmail fodder. That’s the real reason for all the spying.

Letting everyone know Obama is “lobbying hard” is to show just how courageous and brilliant he is when congress authorizes the strikes. When Kerry said he can’t contemplate congress turning it’s back on Israel, it told me it’s in the bag.

What 90% of the people think doesn’t matter. All those in congress are smarter than the people.

McCain can push for all the no fly zones, standoff bombing campaigns, interventions, outright invasions and limited engagements he wants, but he will still never be a war hero, just as he never was.

Why does the Clown need McInsane and Linseed? I thought the Clown possessed great powers of persuasion and could just speak to the UN and all will be right with the world?

What about Assad being a REFORMER as Hitlery and Obama asserted just a few months ago?

How about that RESET button with Russia?

Yeah, Obama is pulling out all stops to help the Al Qaeda loving rebels in Syria.

Anyone else see that story where the rebels in Syria beheaded a Christian and fed the body to dogs over the weekend? Yep, those are the barbarians Obama wants to protect.
