Another reason to bring back the draft.  If there was a chance some rich kids could be in combat perhaps these guys would think twice. 

 

Then again the rich would find a way to get their kids exemptions...

 

This is no win.  We are going into another war.  Obama checking in with Congress will help deflect some blame from him. But lets be clear: we will engage Syria. 

I can't believe how President Obama has morphed into a bellicose Alpha Male, going from benign Nobel Peace Prize winner to an agressive saber rattler.  His position on this Syria situation seems implicitly influenced by a need to remind that America is the most powerful country in the world and that, as its leader, he has the balls of a HNIC.   

 

All this subtefuge about poison gas and moral obigation rings hollow.  What's the difference between killing innocent people with drones and machine gun fire as opposed to poison gas. One method is just as deadly as the other. In the end, the victims are just as dead. And the claims about chemcial warfare just as trumped-up as those about weapons of mass destruction were.

 

Too blinded by his hubris, Obama's  urgency to save his presidential legacy will backfire.  He seems oblivious to the possibility of Syria ignoring his warnings.  What will he do if things escalate??? What is his end game?  The rats are all deserting the sinking ship as Obama stands at the helm, his erection drooping, visions of a smirking George Bush, haunting his resolve. England occupies itself with a new crown prince, while China checks its ledgers to make sure the U.S. has paid its latest loan installment, and Russia sips vodka while taking sides with Syria.

 

The buck stops with a woegotten President Barak Obama, who should've been careful about what he wished for; because he got it.  The audacity of hope, indeed.   Watta farce.

 

Back on the home front, the anti-war movement is stirring back to life and I'm ready to flash the peace sign.

My guess Kerry's slip is no slip. War has to be paid for, what resource does Syria possess.

Cynique The President is The Alpha Male. Remember when he was collecting the Nobel Prize and joking about sending troops to war. He is very very clever.

Ha ha well the Nobel Brothers are probably responsible for more deaths than any other siblings.
