WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) President Barack Obama has made no decision on the proper response to the use of chemical weapons by the Syrian government, White House spokesman Jay Carney said Tuesday. The president is still consulting with allies and members of Congress, Carney said.

The "red line" must have moved.....(S)
I guess Valerie Jarrett is on vaycay...........
Obama may not have made his decision but the military-industrial complex about which Eisenhower warned has already made its decision, and its two principal cheerleaders — John McCain and Lindsey Graham — already are dancing naked around the bonfire to the beat of the wardrums. These two clowns only seem happy when someone’s getting bombed.
I guess in this case it could be called “wag the hag”....
Jay Carney is a liar. Obama decided what he wanted to do in Syria long before there was a justification for it.
In typical liberal fashion Obama has long had a solution that was in search of a problem.
Barry loves the spotlight, and this “will he or won't he?” Hamlet-like dithering makes him the center of not just US, but international attention.
Our Barry is soaking this up. So very appealing to the Narcicist-in-Chief.
You expect a decision on ANYTHING that has not been fully scoped out with a “focus group”?
Valerie Jarrett has said, “Hold it up a minute, I have Iranian ties, let’s not be hasty.”
To go against Bashar al-Assad is to go against Hezbollah and the Iranian Islamic Republic.
But on the other hand, if the decision IS to go up against Hezbollah and Quds, then Assad will direct the next attack at Israel. For the Current Regime now squatting in the White Hut, this is a positive. But then, Russia has already put in their bid, and they would like very much for the US NOT to intervene.
What to do, what to do. Endless dithering seems like an attractive alternative at the moment.
So go to Congress and ask them to make a decision — it is, after all, the job of Congress to make such decisions.
An American President and patriot to be proud of. Forward to everyone so they can see what a real American President looks and sounds like.

Hard to comprehend that the wellbeing of planet earth rests on the decision of one illegitimate and pathetic creature born somewhere no one wishes to divulge.
You may be right....I have seen other reports today of US plane buildup on Cyprus....
My first thought exactly. He’s waiting to hear from Jarrett.
“If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice”
I watched part of this and according to LiarPants Carney, "the President is reviewing all his options.."
No one tells King Barry what he can and cannot do!!
It will be reported that his position on Syria is “evolving”. It’s kinda like voting “present”. When something major happens he’ll have the time to jump on the bandwagon that makes him look good. We’ve seen this in him before....
It's not like he waited 9+ months before deciding on the troop surge, all the while our men & women in uniform were being fired upon.
Isn’t it up to congress, since we no longer live under a monarchy?
