Van Hollen was just on FOX. His lips were definitely moving.

Selectively working the mute can be fun.

Since we are talking about hiding places:

http://www.jpost.com/Syria-Crisis/Report-Syria-transported-chemical-weapons-to-Iraq-326141

Don't know if there is anything to this or not but it makes perfect sense.
the link above says that Syria is trucking poison gas into both Lebanon and Iraq(sound familiar) in advance of the UN coming their way to destroy their supplies.
My guess is that Syria will gladly let the UN have all the leaky 55 gallon barrels full of decomposing chemicals that are near impossible to contain while they keep the good stuff in safe hiding.

McCaul is not a very strong advocate for the Republicans. His responses are talkingpoints and he isn’t making them very passionately.

Van Hollen has more experience on these morning shows and he is giving the appearance that Obama/Kerry won regarding Syria.

==

On Syria, the GOP are pulling defeat out of the jaws of a political victory. They are good at that. Boehner is already negotiating terms of surrender with Obama. At least McConnell is keeping his mouth shut — he is, after all, fighting a serious reelection challenge.

==

Harmon: We don’t know why Kerry said what he said or Obama said what he said, but it worked. [It really was a strategy.]

Hume: They stumbled into a potential solution.

Funny looking broad, real good at talking out of one side of her mouth.

Even Chris Van Hollen could not keep a straight face when he said it was Obama's credible threat of an incredibly small strike that brought Putin to the table.

There is almost nobody more annoying than Van Hollen, unless of course you consider Obama, Biden, Kerry, Hillary.......

Van Hollen has the ability to lie straight faced and make whatever he says believable. Moreover, when challenged he trys to denigrate his opponent. Typical socialist with nothing to run on but well calculated lies,mistruths and distortions.

Panel topic: Government shutdown pending.

==

Every time the Congressional GOP takes a stand on anything (Obamacare repeal, budget ceiling, etc.) the newstalkies yell ‘Shutdown! The GOP wants to shut down the government.’

The Dems and Media run with that, and, of coure, the GOP whimps out. The Pubbies wince every time ‘shutdown’ is claim, just as they do when the Dems/Media play or threaten to play the race card.

I made the mistake of turning on CNN for State of the Union just in time for the camera to zoom in for a close up shot of Crowley the Hutt.

Now I am scrubbing my breakfast out of the carpet....

When he first ran for Congress I used to see his bumper stickers on Escalades and Navigators combined with GoGreen, etc stickers.
It is wonder he can sit up as there is not one bone in his unctuous body.

Why do they do that? I guess every single angle is worse than the rest. How low CNN has fallen.

All part of the far left socialist meme. Lies are just a part of their agenda,a “big” part.

The RATS are always blameless. IT is their intentions that are as pure as the wind driven snow, always looking out for the "little people". Obama stands off to the side never being held accountable for ANYTHING all the while telling his kool aid drinking sycophants that he "IS WORKING FOR THEM AND DOING EVERYTHING IN HIS POWER TO STOP THESE NASTY REPUBS THAT ARE ONLY CONCERNED WITH CAPITALISTIC PROFITS AND THE GOOD FOTUNTES OF THE KOCH BROTHERS.

Looks like the Syrians and Russians have been playing fast and loose with chem weapons for some time now maybe months.
Here’s a clip form the link above.:

” Unit 450—a branch of the Syrian Scientific Studies and Research Center that manages the regime’s overall chemicals weapons program—has been moving the stocks around for months, officials and lawmakers briefed on the intelligence said.

Movements occurred as recently as last week, the officials said, after Mr. Obama said he was preparing to launch strikes.

The unit is in charge of mixing and deploying chemical munitions, and it provides security at chemical sites, according to U.S. and European intelligence agencies. It is composed of officers from Mr. Assad’s Alawite sect. One diplomat briefed on the unit said it was Alawite from “janitor to commander.”

It is composed of officers from Mr. Assad’s Alawite sect. One diplomat briefed on the unit said it was Alawite from “janitor to commander.”

U.S. military officials have looked into the possibility of gaining influence over members of Unit 450 through inducements or threats. “In a perfect world, you would actually like to co-opt that unit. Who cares who pays them as long as they sit on the chemical weapons,” said a senior U.S. military official.

Now, the chief of rebel forces, General Salim Idris, is accusing the Assad regime of moving chemical weapons stockpiles clear out of the country into Iraq and Lebanon.”

I wish I could be more optimistic but America is going down. The impotent republicans and Obama are destroying our country and it may happen in our lifetime.
