This is so confusing. If Kerry had been a dove he would be run out on a rail by the conservatives. But hes being a hawk here, so the conservatives are going to run him out on a rail.
The characterization is wrong. This is not about going to another garden variety war. Its about a limited military strike supporting International law and a deterrent against an abhorrent crime against humanity.
Republicans are about me me me? BWA-HAHAHA!!!! The LIBERALS are all about entitlement from cradle to grave government support! The Libs take the money from the producers and give it to the takers and then say here’s my gift to you. And when entitlements give them more in stuff than what they’d earn on minimum wage, then why WOULD they work??? Certainly not for self respect. That’s for sure!
It is a tar baby, it will suck us in deeper and deeper, but since our POTUS had the red line speech, we need to do something or else Iran wont believe us when we say we are serious about their nuke program. Russie sees this as a way to gain political capital in the region. This is a lose-lose-lose proposition. Thanks President Obama.
If Obama really wanted to go to war in Syria, he would have done so a couple of years ago. He’s been doing his best not to go to war, and even now he is hoping against hope that a limited strike will be all that is necessary. I think he’s making a mistake to have a military strike at all, but there’s still a distinction to be made, by those who can make distinctions.
Once again Ms. Benson is showing her ‘Blame everything on Obama’ side. In fact it is senators McCain and Graham who have been banging the war drum – and have been doing so for over a year.
How many times do I have to say this? I’m a socialist and I’m opposed to a military strike. And I’m hardly alone on the left.+Here’s what I see — a lot of the right pretends that no one on the left is opposed to a strike. Obviously they are indulging in some fantasy that makes them feel better.+If anyone on the left does support a strike, the right says “See, they are just Obamabots”.But if anyone on the left doesn’t support a strike, then the right says, “See, even the left is against Obama”.Any possibility that people are sincere? And that good people can sincerely disagree? No, I guess that doesn’t fit the playbook.

They’re for common sense. Are YOU saying Libs are warmongers?

If we were really concerned about Syria under the Assads, we should have done something about HIS DAD!
We’re way too late in taking any action, but saying Kerry lacks credibility, certainly chooses to ignore the yellow roses of Texas and Wyoming!!
