Right now, the number of House Republicans planning to back the Syria resolution is stuck at about two dozen,

Two dozen to be sent to the woodshed next election!

It looks as though the adults are going to refrain from giving the 10-year old the keys to the liquor cabinet and a loaded gun. That’s a shame.

Democrats are feverishly working behind the scene to swing enough votes through blackmail, favors, payoffs, threats and arm twisting.

The same way they got Obamacare passed.

Tallying the House Vote on Syria: It's looking horrible for the President

President?, What "President"? The indonesian/kenyan in the white hut?

I have absolutely no doubt that Weeper of the House Boehner, along with his faithful sidekick Cantor and his Band of RINOs will ride to Hussein's aid.

“Hoorible for the POTUS” actually means GOOD for the rest of us.

I’ve worked for Eric Cantor for years. Met him many times. I used to go to his “Republican Round Up” party every year in Richmond. Brought my wife and kids. I’ll never lift a finger or vote for him again.

Iran is the tumor that needs to be excised, everything else is just political posturing and rhetorical fluff.

This will be a certain career-ending vote for Congresscritters on both sides of the aisle.

“I know Denis McDonough is working the Senate, but we need to see more on our side,” says the leadership source. “The White House isn’t doing enough. If they can’t get it together soon, this thing will go down people will have to listen to their constituents for a change.”

Fixed it.

When it comes to the vote the Dems will fall in line behind Zero — as will the RINOs who will no longer be able to hide their true allegiance.

Not on the dem side. They never eat or bury their dead.. they just put them back in office to support the next dem in power.

..for the life of me I cannot understand Cotton and Kizinger

Supporting an Islamic rebel faction over a secular dictatorship? Where are the US interests involved? Help Israel and that's it.

. The only explanation that I can think of is that they really really believe the stuff about democratizing every part of the world.

It is one of the false presuppositions of some forms of Neo-Conservatism--it's just Woodrow Wilson all over again making the world safe for democracy IMO...

Cantor published an op-ed in the Richmond Times-Dispatch. His pitch: Syria is more than a civil war; it’s a proxy war for Iran that demands engagement.

That may be true, however the engagement should be
IN IRAN not Syria.

No more proxy war.
Take the war to THEM.
