I lean more with Cruz and Paul. Rubio can forget it.

If The Hill reported on all the splits, rifts, and contradictions within the Democrat party, they’d have room for nothing else.

But they avert their eyes from those matters.

They first have to identify if it is the peaceful, the shy, the introverted, the bashful, the moderate or militant muzzies that they plan to fight?

It’s so difficult to keep them apart these days when our congress critters do not want to officially identify them for fear that we may offeeeeeeend them.

And this country wants to fight ISIS with such a timid attitude? (By the way, we’re not fighting ISIS only but we have to keep our eyes peeled to all of Islam)

Rubio supports arming more moderate factions in Syria...

Right, arm the mythical moderates, who are allied with ISIS and fighting the only force effectively fighting ISIS (Assad).

The Florida Senator warns that it may be necessary to put American boots on the ground, though he would prefer to avoid that kind of escalation. ...

Yeah, like if Assad is pushed out of power. Rubio is once again trying to please both sides without actually thinking about consequenses.

I agree with Cruz. Paul and Rubio are not to be trusted. Arming the Kurds seems to be the only option.

From what I can tell I agree with Cruz. Definitely do not arm Syrian rebels. Help Iraq and Syria governments fight ISIS with their boots on the ground and provide air support. Given we are talking desert and sand ISIS is quite visible from the air when they march and a lot can be destroyed with air power.

Obama needs congressional approval to go into Syria. I would be ok with Obama reusing G W Bush’s Iraq approval IF he would grovel and beg for forgiveness for taking the troops out and admit he was wrong and Bush was right. Absent that he needs congressional approval to go back into Iraq.
