Thank you for your service and God bless.

I also enjoyed the slap down. Obama deserves a KO for what he has done to our country.

Putin is an experienced Judo practitioner.

The first reversal of momentum had the obamites spinning the wrong direction...they could never recover from that point on, let alone follow the whole Kata ( if that’s what they call a sequence in Judo).

Still, the press will play this debacle as the most stunning piece of brinksmanship since Chauncey the Gardener.

In my book- Vlad the Impaler took down The Inhaler in record time. Tonight’s speech writers are probably headed for the stress ward.

He played their boy prince like a fiddle.

Now he has to keep him in the ring until the 15-round main event is close to being over. (2016?)

Maybe he’ll develop a limp.

Congress should ignore this jerk, go with the already intended vote and vote it down.

President Obama stated at the end of his 16 minute speech, “terrible things happen across the globe….we should act, that’s what makes America exceptional.” I find his words utterly disgusting because tomorrow we will remember four Americans who were abandoned by President Obama to die in Libya. I found no righteous indignation and call for a moral obligation to avenge and punish their islamic terrorist murderers – matter of fact, Obama called it a “phony scandal.” Christians are being butchered daily, where is his outrage? Israel is taking rocket and missile fire, where is his outrage? Some 100,000 Syrians had been killed by conventional munitions, and this was not the first chemical attack, where was his outrage? Obama has shown incompetence and weakness and has not presented a credible threat to Assad and Putin. If he wanted to respond he could have, God knows he did not seek congressional approval for Libya. He has been strategically outmaneuvered by Putin, lost the initiative, and allowed Putin to look like a statesman while he looks like a confused community organizer.

STATEMENT BY SENATORS McCAIN AND GRAHAM ON PRESIDENT OBAMA’S SPEECH ON SYRIA
September 10, 2013

Washington, D.C. ­– U.S. Senators John McCain (R-AZ) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) today released the following statement regarding President Obama’s speech on Syria this evening:

“We appreciate the President speaking directly to the American people about the conflict in Syria. We regret, however, that he did not speak more forcefully about the need to increase our military assistance to moderate opposition forces in Syria, such as the Free Syrian Army. We also regret that he did not lay out a clearer plan to test the seriousness of the Russian and Syrian proposal to transfer the Assad regime’s chemical weapons to international custody.

“Such a plan would require the United States, together with our friends and allies, to immediately introduce a tough U.N. Security Council Resolution that lays out what steps Syria would have to take to give up its chemical weapons, including making a full and accurate declaration of all of its chemical weapons and granting international monitors unfettered access to all sites in Syria that possess these weapons. This Resolution would have to threaten serious consequences if the Assad regime does not comply, and it would have to be presented to the Security Council for an up or down vote. We would expect Russia and China to support such a Resolution without delay.”

Yup, that is Barry’s minuscule nickname for Secretary of Statements John “Pinprick” Kerry.
