Well then mcCain needs to be the first pilot patrolling the skies then!

We have no business in Syria unless it is to bomb their chemical weapons facilities...but it is too late for that anyway I fear.

I cannot for the life of me see any national strategic interest in overthrowing yet another Middle East dictator only to have the Islamists take over the country. None!

Especially with Obama and his idiots and traitors running the show. McCain needs his head examined.

I can give you an A+ on all your wrote with one little catch.
There are those with the Federal Government as well as many think tanks that would like to see Syria changed into a safe democracy to help stabilize the ME. Oil/Gas is still king.
As well the potential that the Russians would no longer be welcome and lose their warm water port of the Syrian coast.
The Russians always must be included in the equation. But I have the same sentiments as to why our brave men and women must die and be maimed, and stand long times from families and loved ones for some of these damn wars the USA gets involved in.
I have a nephew working in Jordan with an international corporation, and a former Marine nephew located in a remote FOB in southern Afghanistan, in the areas of most of the recent bad things that took place.
So I have a personal stake in how things go in these areas.
I knew of some of the Marines that died during my nephews two tours in Iraq. Fine men. Now widows and children must struggle with their great loss.
Tis all a mixed bag. Sadly.
