Obama jumps at the shot of dubious propaganda from Syria and the machinations of Prince Bandar. It will take a good spanking from Democrats to reign him in. More power to them, they are Americans also.
Didn't stop them from their Million Moron Marches when it was EEVIL BOOOSH!
There is no anti-war movement.
There was only an anti-republican movement.
Who many DC anti-war protests did we have from 2008 - 2012???????
Pathetic.
“Why Liberals Kill”
President Obama to exit Afghanistan. But their heroes—from FDR to JFK—promoted U.S. involvement in more wars than all modern GOP presidents combined.

Welcome to the party,Dems.Bring McCain and Graham with you.
Kucinich as citizen far trumps the hack politician he once was previously.
Oh, like it was when there was, oh say, LIBYA!?
Well done, Kucinich, an honest liberal.
I want to do just the opposite of anything this flaming moron wants to do.
The dems are as pathetic as the 'pubs. Maybe Kucinich can embarrass them into manning up.
What I don’t get in reading history is Pol Pot was murdering millions of citizens of Cambodia while Jimmy Carter was president. Why didn’t Carter say or do something through the UN or whatever? Now Obama wants to unilaterally go into Syria with a few bombs? To accomplish what exactly? To knock out some powdered milk plants??
That bunch of slithering snakes that are generically designated as “liberal Democrats” still do not have the moral fortitude to stand up RIGHT NOW and denounce, in no uncertain terms, the fallacy of entering a fight on somebody else’s real estate,
The US has NO compelling national interest here. In fact, to go sticking our oar in here is to gravely endanger a long-time and steadfast ally, Israel, though that may be part of the subtext of the agenda that the Current Occupant of the White Hut is trying to push through.
When Saddam Hussein was limiting his warfare (poison gas and all) to border conflicts with the Iranian Islamic Republic, and to their clandestine supporters within Iraq, it was not the province of the US interests to stop that fight, not that we could have been in the least effective.
Likewise, when Islamic jihadists are shooting up other Islamic jihadists, our interest ought be limited only to containing any collateral damage OUTSIDE the combat zone.
Like in Kosovo and Serbia, had the US not intervened, the Balkan states and the European states most directly affected would have sorted the dispute themselves, and not had the US to blame for the greater grief that was visited upon them by strikes from a distance upon their real estate. A bombing run at 30,000 feet cannot distinguish between friendlies (if there ever were any in that region) and the despised foes, who, as it turned out, were pretty largely the Islamic partisans.
Likewise, strafing a war zone with missiles fired from offshore out in the Mediterranean is as likely to cause approximately equal damage to all parties on the ground, combatants and non-combatants alike, with no discernible benefit other than to break things and kill people.
Stand down, hands off, concentrate on keeping commerce flowing through the Suez Canal and into surrounding ports.
But of course, the Current Regime now squatting in the White Hut is not well served by such a program. They have a bunch of phony scandals that have to be covered up, and the fog of war is an excellent camouflage.
That's why they call them "leaders", I suppose. Disgusting.
No blood for al Qaeda!
Whatever they say now is mute, when push comes to shove, they will back obama, because for them the party is first, that is the way of the demoncrat!
Where's Boehner ?
