    Mr. President in going to get us involved come hell or high water.

    Afghanistan - A mess

    Irag - A mess

    Egypt - A mess

    Libya - A mess

    But I'm sure arming terrorists in Syria will turn out swell.

    Obama is a neo-con. He loves Israeli-inspired wars.

    As soon as we have a Republican president again, Republicans will back all wars and Patriot Act internal spying again. Record-setting deficits will again be explained away. All will be in order, just like 1981-93 and 2001-09.

    At some point you can no longer write these continued crazy actions as incompetence. It's beginning to appear intentional.

    Maybe the better question is, why are we getting the same policies and decisions no matter whom we elect?

    The State Dept., thoroughly infiltrated by neo-cons, wants America's Job #1 to be the empowerment of Israel. All such advice percolates up to the Secretary of State and the President. No matter which party they are, they hear only one side.

    You’re like a broken record. I purposely included two wars that were not started by President Obama, so as not to make it all about R’s and D’s.

    But what the fuck, if the current regime is willing to arm drug cartels in Mexico, the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and terrorist rebels in Libya, why not arm Al Qaeda in Syria? Israel can just go pound sand if they don't like those weapons being used against them.

    Seriously, do you support the US arming the Al Qaeda forces in Syria?

    You think Obama is a supporter of Israel?

    Helping the Muslim Brotherhood take over in Egypt took away their only border that they didn't have to actively defend. Arming the MB and the rebels in Libya will result in US weapons that will be used against Israel. Arming Al Qaeda in Syria will result in more US weapons being used against Israel.

    We were going to give Morsi (read Muslim Brotherhood) 20 F-16's. We held up delivery of four of them when Morsi was ousted. We sent them a bunch (200?) of our M1A1 tanks this year. How was that in Israel's interest?

    This Syrian debacle is nothing like any President before this one would have made.

    Obama, quite literally, lied in front of his employers by saying he never made a verbal "red line" toward Syria.

    I've seen people in the business world fired for standing in front of peers and lying so brazenly, yet the idiots in this country seem to not care about it at all, and will even let the ultimate CEO in the world then blame others for his obvious lies and mistakes.

    If that's where this country is at, then the majority have spoken, but at this point, I have zero respect for anyone who tries to claim that Obama isn't a brazen liar.

    Well perhaps there is another game being played, no way to know but let's look at a list of facts. (Some maybe not correct)

    Assad is attempting to maintain a secular country according to him and Putin. About one third of the Syrian people are Eastern Orthodox Christian while the majority are Shite Muslim

    At least part of the Rebels are Sunni Muslim.

    The Sunni world is headed in Riyadh under the Saudis

    The Shite world is headed in Iran under the Ayatollahs

    Barrack Obama's Muslim education occurred in Indonesia, a mostly Sunni Muslim country.
    http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreen...mands-shiite-refugees-convert-to-sunni-islam/

    Barrack Obama on his tour of the World when he first became President, bowed deeply to the
    Saudi King. (All though he denied doing so to the American people)

    Al Qaeda is Sunni, there are part of the Rebels fighting in Syria. 17 of the 21 attacker on 9/11
    were from Saudi Arabia as was Ben Laden. (I guess he became expendable)

    Russia's Muslim populations are mostly Shite, the Russian's do not want to see Sunnis expand and take the fight to their territory.

    Now where do Barrack Obama's loyalties lie?

    Zero of the Al Qaeda (Sunni) terrorists that attacked Benghazi have been captured even though several have been interviewed on TV

    What exactly is American interest in Syria? None it seems to me. Why does the President see interests in Syria?
    Iran some say is backing Syria! So what? Why does that matter now? Iran is Shite and so is Syria (except for the Christians) and has been for a very long time

    Assad is a Dictator! So what? he won't be the last in the world. So why do you care Mr. President?

    Mr. President, is your beautiful Holy Quran Sunni or Shite? Mr. President, Assad has been protecting the Christians, the rebels have been killing them. What are you doing Sir?

    The qualification of being a Natural Born Citizen is becoming more meaningful everyday.

    Nonsense.

    Romney would be following the exact same orders from above, just using a different sales pitch.
