Kerry: The reputation of the United States is on the line...

==

All those apology tours, and so far, the only coalition Team Obama can build is a nod-without-commitment from France.

That reveals Obama’s international influence, or lack thereof. The other nations no longer trust the US. It will take more than an Obama speech to ever regain that.

Syrians were dancing in the streets and declaring victory right after Obama’s speech.

Kerry: "The president has made his decision."

Great. Fill us in, because if I understand the way things have gone, he made a nebulous statement with his original red line statement, said he would take action, deferred to Congress, and may or may not take action a day, week, or month from now.

What a shrewd thinker and decision maker. /s

Inhofe: “Our military is degraded (because of the
First Moslem undocumented Tyrant)”.

King: “pRes_ _ent is weak and vacillating”
(but he will vote to attack Syria).
He also attack the GOP calling it “an isolationist wing”.

This sudden affinity for Congressional approval and bipartisanship is so transparent. This admin knows the likelihood of House approval is slim. They’re just looking for a mid-term issue for the 2014 elections.

Wallace: Why are we only considering a limited attack?
(FOX “News” wants al Qaeda to get FULL support
and regime change to bring al Qaeda to power in Syria).

Reed (D): Wants the attack limited for “principle”
to stop others with chemical weapons.
but wants more weapons transferred to al Qaeda.

Wallace: What message is sent from the undocumented Tyrant
holding off for a week?

Inhofe: The mistake was drawing a ‘red line in the sand’.

Summary: FOX “News” shows its bias with Wallace
who cannot stop pimping for Obama and al Qaeda.

How does that ridiculous dye job on Rubin not melt and run under studio lighting?

Female panelist [Jennifer Rubin] on FoxNews Sunday said that Obama has reversed himself 5 times on Syria in recent months.

No wonder many potential coalition allies are running away from any Syrian involvement with Obama.

I’m thinking that Obama, the one that makes everything political, is looking for an out. He has backed himself into a corner with his red line comment and now must find a way to do what he likes to do best: blame everyone else. He probably knows that Congress will vote his operation down either genuinely or with help from his conspirator democrats. After Congress votes it down he will say, “see I wanted to do this, but those evil Republicans, the party of no, won’t let me.” If they do give him permission, he will push for lots of money in the new budget or to get rid of the sequestration. Just speculation and an opinion on my part. We will see.

UN briefing on crisis in Syria.

Spokesperson: Use of chemical weapons will not be tolerated. If they are used, the perpetrator nation will be dealt with.

[So, who is going to enforce that?]

What the hell is Chris Wallace doing???

He’s criticizing Kerry for going to Congress and is trying to get Kerry to act now and attack Syria without the approval of Congress.

John Fund comments that [due to Obama’s decision to delay] Assad is already moving children into areas that could be possible targets. It would be an international disaster to show pictures/videos of children being injured or killed as a result of US bombing.

FoxNews

Chris Wallace is rehashing his interview with Kerry and Obama’s changing position.

[Wallace has turned into a war hawk. He is disgusted with Obama’s change of heart/mind on dropping bombs on Syria. Obama pissed in Chris’s cheerios.]

And if a man such as yourself shall make enemies, then they become my enemy,
and then will they fear you.

FoxNews

Commentator Liz Trotta is cutting Obama to the quick for yesterday’s speech.

It is worth watching, if they put it up on the FoxNews website.

[Ms Trotta is from Old School journalism.]
