How many of the protesting anti-war nuts said the same? Code Pink? Endless amount of Democrat party supporters? I could go on and on...
My question is - where are they now?
Where indeed??? Seems all Obama had to do was cloak his desire in a false charge then claim humanitarian action was called for. Just a mere coincidence that this sudden humanitarian action will aid the Terrorist groups that are now the leadership of the rebels fighting in Syria. A mere coincidence that yet again Obama is supporting known and designated enemies of this nation! And by doing so is breaking a Federal law that forbids doing exactly that! I hope Congress tells the bastard hell no and he does it anyways. If that happens we sure enough will have a Constitutional crisis IMHO!!!!! The bastard is just arrogant enough to go ahead even if Congress clearly says no! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- However , I've wondered this about Syrian strike proposal coming to this. What if it's by design? What if he has steered it to a Congressional vote knowing Congress will say no. Then he ever so graciously abides by that NO- vote! AND WHY YOU MAY ASK WOULD HE DO THAT? FIRST--- So that then he has his almost invincible premade --EXCUSE- not to aid Israel in striking Iran to stop it's nuke program by pointing to that vote!! Of course he is too damn stupid to have ever thought up such a devious long range plan but undoubtedly his masters are not IMHO.. SECONDLY, to reestablish his not overriding Congressional authority which could be a big campaign issue in the coming 2014 election. Thereby negating one of the weapons that can be used against him and the Dem party in that election . For a major call in the 2014 election will be to retake the Senate and control both houses in Congress because Obama's abuse of power is greatly due to a divided Congress and the Senate backing Obama against the House of Representatives.. -Tyr
