Interesting that Republicans in Congress found no problem with Cheney’s concept of the “unitary Presidency”, like “signing statements, etc.”, but the moment Obama took office he was supposed to have Congressional approval for everything from “surgical strikes”, to getting permission to take out the garbage at the White House.
It isn’t just the stupidity, it’s the hypocrisy.
NO more wars, but for cryin’ out loud, let’s get real about it, and say what we actually mean, the U.S. should rule the Middle East, or at least let Israel do it for us!

Why isn’t anyone talking about sending humanitarian aid to the civilians?

Because we’ve sent humanitarian aid already. And the hawks say it’s not enough, and the rebels say they need more than humanitarian aid.
