“I am president of the world’s oldest Constitutional democracy.”

That would be “republic”, not “democracy”, Mr. Obama.

Reminds me of the baseball analogy with the runner rounding second and headed for third during a single to right field with runner having left first base. Can hear the announcer saying ... He's gonna test him now! Regrettably this is not a baseball game. Many times the runner makes it to third and then scores. Congress may not do the right thing and stop obama. If the right fielder does not throw out obama going to third, the world is sitting on a powder keg (imho).

What has US influence done in the Middle East...given us the disastrous Arab Spring.

Now they have the green light. As Krauthammer said, this is coming across as real amateur hour.

Why does Congress have to be ordered to come back?
They should come back on their own. Plan a one hour
debate(lol) just vote.
Tell the American people, they voted nay.
And SORRY for the little boy tantrum, hopefully this won’t happen again.

Wouldn’t it just be easier to get the News Media to say he never really said the red line comment?

Sometimes WH transcript differs from actual live speech, but...

listening again-— he did say “of the worst chemical weapons attack of the 21st century.”

“What...me worry! That’s what I have my peeps for. I have reviewed their advice and made a SECOND presidential command decision. NOW, stop your griping. No questions; I’m going to miss my tee time. New talking points have been issued to fill the Sunday talk shows. Carry on....and have a splendid Labor Day holiday. I certainly don’t intend to miss mine.”

"ABC live online feed shows Arab protesters outside White House chanting, "Hey hey, ho ho, Bashar al-Assad must go.""

Wow... mixed group out there, I guess.

Yesterday I saw a photo of a big group of Answer anti-war protestors (with their nearly-identical, professionally-printed signs, of course) out in front of the White House. Maybe the anti-Assad crowd and the anti-war crowd are shouting back and forth to each other...
