“I just don’t believe that if defeat is certain, the House leadership will want to see a president utterly humiliated on the House floor in a public vote,” one top aide to the Republican leadership told me.

Man, I would love to know what America's first female president has on Bohner..!

They want people to die for this, but they don’t even have the guts to vote on it as is their duty. Bunch of freaking cowards.

I think actually this is a very smart move on Boehner’s part. PLEASE HEAR ME OUT AS I’VE BEEN OPENLY CRITICAL OF OUR REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP.

We should all pause here for a moment and give the guy some credit when it’s due.

I think Obama was poised to strike Syria for a variety of reasons, but mostly because it would take some of the flack off his back he was to get from Congress returning from vacation.

I think if you look back at things, Obama was poised and ready to attack Syrian airports, planes etc.

Assad was exposed.

Putin also was caught off guard, but he came out saying that Assad was not part of the gassing.

BUT I think covertly he made it clear to the British, Germans etc that he was going to back Assad.

Obama and his band of amateurs figured that the US military and a contingent of allies could send a quick message of how tough he is.

BUT

To Obama’s amazement and PUtin’s, the Brits back off, as do the Germans and others!!!

Obama is now alone. Fully exposed. No one in the US wants us to attack Syria alone.

I think Putin THEN sent him a clear message covertly that said we will attack US ships and planes in defense of Assad. I’m sure he made it very very clear and to back this up

Putin sends ships to the area.

(Think at this point the Bay of Pigs...Putin is Kennedy and Obama is Kruchiev)

Kerry steps up our intent of bombing. We are ready to bomb before the weekend. Remember? Three days at most.

Then the next day Obama declares that he’s going to Congress!!!!

Putin smiles. He knows this man is a coward. Now he owns him.

ON THE OTHER HAND BOEHNER SENSES THAT OBAMA IS GOING TO MAKE REPUBLICANS THE BAD GUY, AND THEREFORE GET HIM OFF THE HOOK.

BOEHNER AND COMPANY IMMEDIATELY SHOW THEIR SUPPORT FOR OBAMA’S AUTHOIRTY TO TAKE MILITARY ACTION. BUT THEY DO NOT OPENLY PERSUADE THIER MEMBERS TO BACK THE BOMBING.

Obama is now almost off the hook. Once Congress votes an attack down, he can save some face and say like Cameron that he will bend to the will of the American people.

NOT HAVING THAT VOTE PUTS IT BACK IN OBAMA’S COURT, WHERE IT IS NOW CLEAR FOR ALL TO SEE, THAT HE HAS NO INTENTIONS OF BOMBING SYRIA OR ANYONE FOR THAT MATTER.

BY NOT HAVING A VOTE IT EXPOSES OBAMA FURTHER.

THERE IS NO NEED TO HAVE THE VOTE. BETTER TO LET THE GUY SWING WITH THE MEDIA ASKING HIM WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO NOW?
