White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough asserted that a "common-sense test" rather than "irrefutable, beyond-a-reasonable-doubt evidence" makes the Syrian government responsible for a chemical weapons attack that Obama says demands a U.S. military response.
McDonough acknowledged the risks that military action could drag the U.S. into the middle of a brutal civil war and endanger allies such as Israel with a retaliatory attack.

“At the same time, McDonough acknowledged the risks that military action could drag the U.S. into the middle of a brutal civil war and endanger allies such as Israel with a retaliatory attack.”
The U.S. is “planning for every contingency in that regard and we’ll be ready for that.”
Like you were ready for Benghazi?
The Obama administration wouldn’t know common sense if it jumped up and bit them in the ass!!!!
Remember, these are the same people who poo-pooh’ed Condaleeza Rice, Donald Rumsfeld, Colin Powell, Dick Cheney and Dubya when they had tons of evidence.
Pffff. What Benghazi video? What are you smoking?

Now a Syrian children video, that’s different.

Obummer, an alleged US Constitution legal scholar, now contends that just because Assad is not guilty on the grounds of reasonable doubt, he should still be judged guilty based on so-called circumstantial evidence. Way to go Barry!!! Keep using the US Constitution as your ouwn toilet paper.
Common Sense tells me that if you let Obomba own the attack he can inspire even rabid bleeding heart liberals to hate him more than they hate George W. Bush 1 or 2 years later down the road.
One big problem with a Narcissist is that he can never be wrong. That’s what this whole ‘nerve-gas’ [ooga-booga] thing is all about.
He and his ghouls have some kind of operation, plan or goal going on with respect to Syria and having these so-called rebels ousting Assad. Kinda like Libya? Kinda like Eqypt?
Kinda NOT like Iran a couple of years ago when he abandoned the young people in the streets trying to oust their leaders (i.e., Muslim Brotherhood). They want it so bad, they concoct a bullsh!t story like the Benghazi backdrop (the video).
As a narcissist, Obama misjudged his own deism. He thought that since he’d been able to lie convincingly to the public on all these scandals (Benghazi, IRS, NSA, CIA et al) and to hide the fact we have a near-depression economy with higher-than-admitted unemployment, we (and our Representatives) would just roll over and go to war again.
Even in spite of the overwhelming opposition, he is going to find a way to kill Assad and turn that government over to the Muslim Brotherhood and Al Qaeda.
I can understand an evil Muslim madman doing that; I cannot, however, understand a media, most of our Senate, and every other sleaze ball politician on the progressive side helping him do it.
I recall as a kid watching Nature shows and there was an episode about lemmings that followed its leaders to jump off a cliff, which got themselves all killed. I’m starting to think that Obama wants to lead liberal lemmings off a cliff too. The strength of the Democrat Party had been its unity, but it can be it’s greatest weakness too when they let Obama guide them on such an insane policy over Syria. Now Democrats are tripping over themselves to say more outrageous lies to defend their idol.
At least he's consistent. Consistently wrong.
Yes.....if you watch most any horror movie where the disciples of the devil try to bring him unto the normal world, it involves them killing, sacrificing some good soul, etc.
Once the incarnate evil arrives, he almost always turns on his disciples because that’s just the way evil is. They are made that way.
Well that’s fantastic news since it foretells doom for the Democrat Party. Just last week I was predicting GOPers will soon disapear and suggested in my ‘TexGrill Thread’ that we should consider becoming conservative Tea Party Dinos. But watching the mental instability of Democrat leaders in the past few days, I now realize that my Dino recruitment is not necessary since they might fall apart before GOPers do.
‘Common Sense’ is an uncommon commodity with this regime.
I don’t think they know what it means.
When will O-bomb-a take Fast and Furious seriously? I guess he loves terrorists more than Hispanics.
Besides ....
O-bomb-a has earned ‘frequent liar’ miles. So who are we to believe? I trust Putin AND Assad more than B-O. Besides, Obama hates Christian ‘bitter clingers’ which helps explain his love of the Muslim Brother Hood killing of Coptic Christians. And Assad gets along fairly well with us infidels.
Uh, common sense in this administration?
And if interfering is a crime, the UN might have to come here to put us in our place.
“Common sense”
or
butt pull?
Make that:
(__)o(__)bama.
With over 5 decades of being an adult, I have yet to meet a liberal with even a hint of common sense.
When they aren’t lying, they are screaming some nonsense because they can’t really discuss any idea in an adult manner.
And don't forget Barry's brilliant idea about turning pond scum into gasoline.
