Amateur Hour: Obama will seek congressional approval. Let’s summarize: Obama drew a “red line in the sand” and the Syrians stepped over it, so Obama said he was going to intervene militarily to teach them a lesson, but then the Brits told their prime minister, “No, hell no!” and now Obama has changed his mind and will seek congressional approval… while insisting he doesn’t need congressional approval and not bothering to call Congress into session (like the Brits did) so they can actually talk about it and, by the way, if he doesn’t get congressional approval he’s going to bomb the living shit out of Syria anyway for “humanitarian” reasons. Got all that?

Is Mr. Kerry as two-faced as he looks?

In the referenced article, did it really say Kerry is now proclaiming that Assad has joined Hitler and SADAMM HUSSEIN in the use of WMD? Are those the weapons that Kerry cried Bush lied about and were never really in Irn? Ass. This entire presidency has been amateur hour. We have been dong the same thing in the middle east for some 1000 years with no success. We need to blow them off and let them sort it out, or turn the entire middle east into sheet glass and start over. We are doing the same thing over and over and expecting a dfferent result. The definition of insanity!
What a scumbag.
Dear NATO,
You need to reach a resolution to go bomb Syria. Since the American people are tired of being the police force of the ungrateful muslim world, the US Miltary will have to sit this one out. We do wish to provide drinking water for the brave NATO warriors as a symbol of our unwavering support of the NATO community. You go girl.
P.S. We don't wish to offend any muslims by putting boots on muslim land. We'll just have the USN drop the water off in Haifa. Y'all just send a convoy over to pick it up and distribute as needed.
We can't do that, they will be just as offended by having anything from the US in their country, so let the UN handle it, WITHOUT OUR HELP!!!

Haifa, Israel? ;)
He failed, bwahahahahaha!
So lets order an airstrike on a country that insulted Quagmire by the tweets from a 11 year old.
I just wonder which one of his aids pulled the short straw, and had to tell him he was bitch slapped by an 11 year old boy.
Personally, I would have volunteered to do it.
He is really working to deserve that Nobel Peace Prize he got....
Got it, and should anything go wrong it will be congress' fault. Do they come any shiftier than this? It's so blatantly obvious how this poor excuse of a world leader executive orders his way though his presidency, but NOW hands it over to congress to save his corrupt @$$. Real class act.
I said this before on another thread, but it bears repeating.
So, now he’s decided to wait for congress to discuss it. Could it be that he saw the tapes of Kerry threatening to call for W’s impeachment if he did the exact same thing?
It's CYA time for the O-Hole in Chief.
The narrative is set. Congress won't take the fall this time.
Obama pretty much gave Iran the green light to build their nuclear weapons...Dumbass!
1st take a look at the picture. Quagmire has his left foot on the desk like he is stomping his foot because he has not gotten his way. In my life time, there have not been pictures of any other president with his feet on the desk or furniture like this one. He has no respect for any thing.
2nd. The 3:00 AM phone call came during the day, quagmire has made bold and brash statements about lines in the sand and a red line. Now he must act and he doesn't have the stones to do it. Leaders lead and act, lord knows that right now the USA does not have a leader in the Presidency.
3rd. He has abandoned all of our allies and NOT ONE of them is willing to stand by him or his band of clowns.
4th. It was so funny to hear John (I served in Vietnam) Kerry's words thrown back at him by Senator Rand Paul.
Smirk is right. The deals are being cut and the whores are busy selling their goods for the highest price. Just remember Obama Care and all of the back room deals and promises that where cut.
No one is Syria is a friend or ally to the US and they all hate Israel. The only thing about al-Assad is he has kept the Christians in Syria safe. Now they are suffering at the hands of quagmire's friends and brothers.
The 3:00 AM phone call came during the day
This isn't the first 3 am phone call he fucked up, remember Benghazi?
Agreed, then you have in no particular order. The under wear bomber, the uprising in Egypt, the Libya debacles, the Boston Bombing, Fort Hood, fast and furious and NSA spying. All on quagmire's watch.
Damn elections of consequences and unfortunately, all of us that oppose this communist bastard are paying for it. All the while the sheep are following right to the slaughter house.
I never noticed how completely absurd that picture is!! Probably just a stocked photo under the title... well, I can think of a few good titles for that photo that I probably shouldn't repeat. Another great photo for satire, that's all I will say!!
Smirk,
Let me do it for. "Damnit Joe, you let me step in the shit again. Why do I have you around?"
Remembering we are dealing with the King of voter fraud, right?!! Please! Wait until one of those congressmen try to explain away the vote. They're busy threatening for votes, swinging deals, and making promises right this minute, still pretending "as if" they are relevant.
I don't know about you guys, but I don't believe much of this story anyway. Somewhere in the middle is the truth, but I doubt it has anything to do with what people are actually lead to believe. Call me cuckoo... just can't bring myself to buy into anything these days.
You are not alone. The "news", as it gets reported, tends to be an endless stream of unconnected "facts". Until someone comes along and weaves everything into a story that makes some sense, I feel like I am being intentionally mesmerized and distracted.
His whole presidency is like the joke about farting at the dinner table and blaming the dog.

Except the dog WAS dinner.
