MANAMA, Bahrain – The United States is ramping up its support for Syria's opposition with a pledge of nearly $100 million in fresh aid.

Deputy Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced the additional assistance Saturday at the Manama Dialogue security conference in the Gulf island nation of Bahrain.

It about freaking time Congress stopped this madness. Their are no moderate Islamists! No more aid to any Islamist “freedom fighters”.

[Navy Patriot]

Frankly, we have no allies or interests in Syria.

Yep.

The petroleum reserve.

Congress and Obama tap petroleum reserve to plug hole in the budget

What is this "Congress" you speak of?

...and there is no money for Veterans who are being murdered by neglect by the VA.

Obama’s plan is working....but it’s NOT “America’s plan”.

Obama’s plan is to bankrupt our economy and undermine our military.

That's a little brief, ya might want to expand a bit.

Comes out of “Obama’s stash”?

[BerryDingle]

The U.S. has a law stating we have to support a democratically elected President. When there was a coup in Thailand, even though we probably wanted it and preferred the military taking over, we couldn’t show support to the coup government because Thaskin was the democratically elected leader.

I think that went out the window when American voters began thinking Obama was legitimately elected.

Yes, which is your back pocket.

From Wiki

The United States Congress is the bicameral legislature of the federal government of the United States consisting of two houses: the Senate and the House of Representatives.

I really meant the worthless House of Representatives since they control spending, or rather, they are suppose to control spending.

But I get your point, Congress seems to be missing since the GOP took over.

[Califreak]

I hope God has mercy on those of us who don’t support that evil madness.

Give the $100 million to NASA. They put out nicer pictures.

Yes, which is your back pocket.

Fortunately not mine...I have my own pickpockets to deal with though.
