Somewhere the bust of Winston Churchill, which Obama so arrogantly sent back to Britain several years ago, must be smiling.

Zero might just do it anyway, and express sincere disappointment with the Brits.

David Cameron said it was clear the British Parliament does not want action and "I will act accordingly".

These two pro-sodomy clowns are the worst duo in modern history.

Compare them to two BRILLIANT leaders:

Back in the 1980s, American and Britain had two strong and moral leaders.

Today, it is the exact opposite.

Anyone in favor of this war - go there yourself. We have given enough blood and treasure to the world. We’re broke. Impeach Obama if starts another war.

Cameron’s maybe not totally stupid. He found a way out of supporting Obama’s Bogus Adventure this time.

Britain has a Parliament that's got the powers to avoid war like the US Congress once had, but America now has a President that's got the unilateral powers to wage war that England's king once had.

Clinton sidesteps the Rwandan genocide of 1,000,000 African deaths, but Obama is going to attack Syria over 1,000 white people who may or may not have been hit with chemical weapons fired by only God knows whom. Nobody can say with any certainty.

A jumped-up Chicago city councilman with no experience is running the executive office of the United States from the ice cream stand at the Camp David golf links.

If America has ever had an 'Age of Madness', we're living in it.

The Kenyan has displayed nothing but contempt for Britain’s colonial past in general, and Winston Churchill in particular. Nice pay back from the Brits. :)

Good. Long past time we stopped exploiting Great Britain with that so-called 'Special Relationship'.

Apologies are in order, in fact.
