Denis McDonough, obama’s token Catholic. Make that “devout Catholic.” Everywhere.
Too bad no one on any of these shows will ask him how he squares that with his devotion to a president who endorses infanticide.
One other point that’s been really bothering me...
Many of our brave troops have served multiple tours of combat in Iraq and Afghanistan. Some have already had 4 or 5 tours. This is far more than most had in Vietnam.
You might have heard about Staff Sergeant Robert Bales. He is the husband of a friend of mine and was on his 4th tour, the one previous to it in Iraq he was blown up by an IED, has a metal plate in his skull. Well he was sent to Afghanistan (after being told he’d get several years in the States because of his injury) and went on a killing rampage in Afghanistan and killed numerous civilians. Now Bobby has said all along he didn’t remember what he did that night—he just has no memory about a lot of things from time to time after that explosion on the 3rd tour in Iraq, but plead guilty because even he believed he must have done it. He got life in prison (Leavenworth) without possible parole. So now my friend has to raise her small children on her own, loses all their military benefits, and has huge legal expenses to boot.
I do not in any way condone acts of murder, especially of civilians. However, the thin red line that is our combat troops is worn extremely thin after years of war, and if we enter another, I’m not sure that many will be able to take it. When the line breaks, then what?
As retired military, I can say that if my country was in peril even I would put on my old uniform and join them. I don’t think even one would chose not to fight in such a situation even if they’ve already had a dozen combat tours! But the question I now have is, is our country really in peril from Assad? More like from the Muslim Brotherhood, but that is the side Obama wants to put us on!!!
Stupid Low Information Voters, who, wrapped up in the celebrity bad boy and bad girl culture, voted for Obama cause he was the cool black guy... Stupid, despicable media who refused to tell the truth about Obama, and instead fed us a myth with fawning articles and news... Stupid democrats, who will do ANYTHING to win, even destroy everything we’ve collectively made over the past 200 years, all to get a vote... Stupid Republicans, for not shouting from the roof tops the real danger we are all in...
They have broken this formerly great country beyond repair.
Aw, shucks... I got the date wrong...
Admin Moderator, can you change the thread title to 8 September 2013?

Long drawn out way o say...republicans really do suck as bad as democrats....
McDonough, with Wallace. Looks like a slimy lying weasel.
Here we go, first words out of his mouth “No doubt Assad used chemical weapons”.
Ha ha...just read this fater my post to you....
Yes indeed...the three pillars should NOT exclude the republicans...
I don’t know how much longer I can subject myself to the Sunday morning lying.
Quick example: McDonough: “Our troops have not faced chemical weapons since World War I.”
Then why did our forces invading Iraq prepare for facing serious chemical weapons of Saddam?
F&F news clip
Kerry: the Syrian civil war is going to require political solution, not a military one.
==
[key phrase: civil war. It is their civil war. At most, US intervention can only throw fuel on the situation. Russia, China and Iran have already expressed they might take ‘action’ if Obama does interfere.]
[Does Kerry realize that, with the first bomb drop, the Syrian civil war does involve military? Kerry, like Obama, can talk out of both sides of his mouth and still not really say anything of significance.]

White House chief of staff Denis McDonough: it is for the children.
World bodies outlawed chemical weapons early in the 20th century.
If someone in our government or elsewhere knows where there are chemical weapons in Syria, and that they have already been used (regardless of the side that used them), the weapons should have been blown up by standoff US or NATO assets by now.
Without debate or much fuss—and no politics. You wouldn’t necessarily even have to announce it. Just KA-BOOM.
You don’t go to “war.” You don’t ask mealy-mouthed politicians for “permission” that you don’t even need. Just KA-BOOM.
Chemical weapons. Think of the gas chambers. Think of Auschwitz. You need a debate? A Sunday morning talk show campaign? Gas. Chemical weapons. Really?
Do these people in the Odumbo admin have any clue where the weapons are? If they do and they haven’t already taken action then they are accessories after the fact.
Wallace: “If this fails the House...”
McDonough: “Hypothetical on top of hypothetical....”
White House chief of staff Denis McDonough has three modes:
LYING, evading questions,and attempting to
shift blame while also blaming others.
al Qaeda NEVER had a better friend
than Obama-the-Undocumented First Moslem.
White House chief of staff Denis McDonough
continues to actually PROTECT the murderers at Benghazi.
He claims the pRes_ _ent has caught the murderers,
and that he “(did) what he says”, even though
Wallace points out that reporters had no trouble
finding the murderers.
CONCLUSION: More proof that the White Hut’s SOLE
GOAL is protecting terrorists against the American
people and raped US Ambassadors (TO THIS DAY).
What an oily slime ball representing our “non-political” president today. I almost feel like I have to go take another shower after listening to the Wallace interview.
Wallace asking McDonough about Benghazi:
“It’s been a year since Benghazi, O’Bomber can’t seem to find the perpertrators, CNN, AP, NYT and other press have interviewed them. Why haven’t they been brought to justice?”

hmmmm
Greta VS shows up on This Week as a panelist.
[Who says there isn’t collusion among networks?]
Indeed! As certified Mousejunkies and otherwise frugal people, Mr Lacey and I are awed by how Disney has mastered the knack of getting us to happily give them boatloads of money. We're heading down to the World again next week; a welcome escape from this craziness.
Rand Paul now up with Wallace.
He opens by announcing we would be going into Syria as an ally to alkida.
