Quite an article (couldn't find title in search), makes me want to give peace a chance.

Let’s have a war, jack up the Dow Jones

This country’s “leaders” have reduced the killing of people with whom we are not at war to political calculus. The article spells out Obama’s reasons, and you only have to look a little further to figure out that the Congress members will do whatever they each feels is necessary to keep their seats irrespective of the human carnage that may ensue. They are all a disgrace, particularly some of the “republicans” like McLame and Linda Graham!

Get a war started. It will expand with thousands upon thousands of Americans killed. This way his Presidency will be extended four more years and finish his rise to dictatorship. Killing Americans is no problem for him.

should Republicans who voted for the Iraq and Afghanistan wars now oppose Syria, the president would be armed with clear “evidence” that their opposition is purely political.

Well, he could try that but he'd be pointing his finger at a mirror.

I know this is cold. I know that this is decidedly un-PC. But does anyone else beside me realize that many, if not most of the children gassed in this attack would grow up to be anti-Israel, anti-American fodder for the likes of Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood. I am sorry if I really don't care that Muslims don't hold the lives of their own children in very high esteem.

When does the Nobel Peace prize committee ask for the prize back?

It’s all about 2014. Win the House, reign supreme.

Public opinion is dead set against military involvement in Syria and that cuts across the political spectrum. How would this improve Obama's popularity leading into 2014?

[Caipirabob]

The pattern is becoming disturbingly clear.

Phase 1 - fight a war!

Phase 2 - ?

Phase 3 - PROFITS!

I take it someone is heavily vested in seeing our currency collapse.

War costs money we don't have...

Obama’s red line was set a year ago and there was ample evidence Assad used chemical weapons months ago. Now one month to go until the Obamacare debacle and its time for a war with Syria. Obama must be taking a cue from Clinton who shot off a bunch of cruise missiles at empty tents in Pakistan and a Sudanese aspirin factory just as the news about Monica was breaking.
