His domestic agenda, such as it is, was crippled long ago.

Obama is soooooooooooooooooooooooo weak, he could
not even find --and release-- a copy of his own BC.

The ONLY thing Americans know for certain, is that
given a choice, Obama ALWAYS chooses al Qaeda over the
American people and the US Constitution.

He needs to learn not to let his alligator mouth over tip his hummingbird @$$.

He’s boxed himself into a corner, one he rightfully deserves. His credibility to do the job at home has always been one big question mark. That hasn’t changed.

His choice of public relations manager is obviously flawed too, because he didn’t have a back out plan.

Congress needs to speak up and say NO...now is not the time and Zero needs to agree, but his pride won’t let him. His pride is the problem. And that pride is likely to get a whole lot more people, killed.

Finally, if WWIII was planed long before WWl ever happened, it seems that this joker is well likely to be the fuse to set it off.

He has absolutely no compunction beating up on American citizens, and has virtually no opposition. If he ordered us to report to relocation camps tomorrow, Sarah Palin would issue a harshly worded tweet and her followers would clap like circus seals. That’s how silly and innefectual the right have become.

I recorded vote in the house has nothing but loss for the democrats. They can go on record voting to throw their president overboard or they can go on record voting to support a war that nobody wants.

For republicans, voting no is a way to show themselves to be the party of restraint.

I’m pretty sure a speech on Tuesday, September 11.....the same date and day of the 2001 attacks.....will not be received favorably, given the presence of Al Qaeda among those who would be assisted in a strike an Syria.

“More important, should Obama lose the congressional vote on Syria, his entire domestic agenda might fall apart.”

Which agenda is being spoken of here? The one he ran for re-election on? The one he took up the next month after his re-election? The one from about three months later, the economy tour? The one three months after that? The current pro-Al Qaeda agenda? Which one?

...the U.S. must not stand back and let rogue dictators use weapons of mass destruction.

I don't remember applying for the job as financier of the world's police force - how did I get it?

Not only do I not strut into ghettos in America and try to keep them from killing each other, I resent wasting my money hiring others to do so.

What rogue dictators do to their own people half-a-planet away "doesn't confront me none".

I have plenty to do just keeping an eye on our own rogue dictator.

Everyone is saying the UN report will change the game. I do not believe it will...because there is no way they will be able to separate the rebels infiltrated in Assad’s army from Assad himself.

Could we quit joining him in blaming circumstances and other people? Ever?

BO is inept. His entire cabinet is inept.

Each one of them dislikes this great country.

None of them are fit for any kind of public office.

Now the game of the media is how to prop him up for the next 3 and a half years.

All of the media is at fault for their own discomfort on this

The right wing media, where Mr. Kidlow has a place, is going to squirm, where they have been mushy on BO

It’s not the no vote nor the congress, who have been on BOs side, save lee and Cruz.

It’s that BO and his staff do not belong in that office

Foot on the desk, indeed!

If you want an idea of how Barry would handle a wider campaign in Syria, just look at how he has handled Afghanistan for 5 years. The body bags will pile up in short order as he uses our troops as cannon fodder to protect AQ.

He’s criminally incompetent.

Since the height of Vietnam the liberal/progressive/socialist/democrat cabal has grossly misunderstood the American military on multiple levels.

First, the American military is a product of the American people. The recent change in how activity duty and retired vets are treated clearly show this. No more scant looks and snide comments; now its thank you for your service. The general populace has taken ownership of their military composed of their children.

Second, you don’t use the military to send messages. Doing so means the State Department has failed in their duties. When you send in the military they are there to break things and hurt people to inform the other side, and the rest of the world, you really don’t want to piss the US off - the costs are too high.

Third, and finally, without a strong military you have nothing to work with when it comes to international diplomacy. After all, how many nations fear the Dutch whe they are operating without close in American military support?

The Emperor is doing nothing more than repeating the mistakes, some times writ large, of LBJ, Carter, and Billy Boy. And like Carter, he is opposed by a strong(er) Russia headed by a confident leader.
