I don't care if he's never served, but I do care that he just criticizes without giving some kind of reasoning behind going to war with Syria.

I know Assad is a bad dude, but it seems the rebels are likely worse, being controlled by radical Islamists.

Is there some good reason for us going there? He does not say. Look at what we did to Egypt by installing the radical Islamists there; good grief Hugh, get a clue, Bambi's foreign policy, if you can call it that, is setting the Mideast on fire.

To go to war because Bambi said something stupid about red lines, that he now claims he never said, has got to be the most moronic thing I've heard in a long time.

Actually, strike 2 remains his unwavering support for amnesty. Although first Hewitt tried “regularization” of the illegal aliens; when that made-up word failed as a substitute for amnesty, he moved to the current “it’s a humanitarian imperative”. No matter which, it’s amnesty.

I’ve listen to and followed the writings of Hewitt since the early 1990s. Sadly, like much of the GOP leadership and too many members of the formerly-great Republican Party, it seems more and more that Hewitt defends the Consitution, the rule of law, conservative principles and traditional American values when it is convenient to do so, and when doing so does not conflict with the goals of the GOP elite. Very disappointing to hear from such a brilliant mind.

For the sake of argument, let’s say the Assad’s government used chemical weapons. We know for sure the rebels used them too. So, why would we go to war on the side of Al Qaeda if they used chemical weapons too?

I wish someone in media would ask the war mongers that.

But the Libertarian Ron Paulers are trying to exploit the situation as are the nitwit leftist Code Pinkos. Just remember that and understand that not everyone opposed to Syria stands shoulder to Shoulder with us.

Say what you want and I oppose Syria, but Zhudi Jasser doesn’t agree with us either. He has a right to his opinion. And therefore numbskull Hannity won’t invite him on his show. We are free to have are own opinions so stuff that.

Might as well We’re already back in the 1930’s economics wise (Great Depression).

Lets pack up our toys, bring our troops home, and stop playing the world’s Police Force, Fire Brigade, and Social Worker. It has been too good of deal for the rest of the world, and has done nothing for us. Our treasuries are empty, our currency debased, and our military exhausted.

But once they get acquainted with new boys (China, Russia, India), I bet they’re gonna miss us.
