Leading from behind. REMF

REMF's and POG's far out rank any so called leaders of the behind!

They are never leaders and can never move into that slot.

They are the horses a$$ to the rest of the horse.

They react after the front of the horse made it's move.

And often they just shite.

When I was much younger, I found this out by mixing ammonia and bleach when I was cleaning house.

So many lost and so many maimed, brain-damaged, horrible things — all in protracted wars-that-never-end, and only to satisfy the blood-thirst of the warmongers.

“President Obama is right on this. Why should we be involved in Syria?”

I agree. We shouldn’t be involved in foreign adventures unless there is some CLEAR U.S. economic or power interest, and then we should go in kick SERIOUS ass and then get the hell out.

Though given that almost every decision Obama has made as President has been antithetical to interests of working U.S. citizens and U.S. world power, he probably made the right decision for the wrong reasons.

Did Omoslem finally find a hellhole he won’t try to hand to the Mozz Bros?

Is that why he’s been shipping them weapons for a year?

In retrospect, the invasion of Iraq to remove Saddam and his sons was probably right. Only after “mission accomplished” banner, we should had gotten the hell out and left the Ba’athist Army in charge of Iraq. The mess afterwards was not our problem.

Meanwhile North Korea, Iran the Mexican Narco gangs, China and Russia are EAGERLY watching Fredo Obama fumble around with red line rhetoric.

There was a reason the Corleone’s NEVER put Fredo in charge.

Since there isn’t any good guys to protect in Syria, neither Assads forces or the rebel opposition, I say we should give them all sarin via airmail. They’ll be left thinking each side gassed the other. Problem solved!

Thanks Sub-Driver.
[zero] got ahead of himself and his advisers when he said that Syria using chemical weapons would cross a "red line," the New York Times reports. “How can we attack another country unless it’s in self-defense and with no Security Council resolution?” an unnamed Obama administration official tells the paper. “If he drops sarin on his own people, what’s that got to do with us?” But they concluded that drawing a firm line might deter Mr. Assad.... Several officials said they recalled no discussion about the “red line” phrase but suspected that it came out of the election-year conversation about Iran and how far to allow its nuclear program to progress... surprised at the president’s use of the term in regard to Syria on Aug. 20... But if the tough rhetoric "succeeded" for a time, it appears to have backfired in the long-run. Because Syria has now apparently used chemical weapons, and President Obama is not willing to do anything about it.

Obama Aide On Syria’s Assad: ‘If He Drops Sarin On His Own People, What’s That Got Do Do With Us?’ Daniel Halper May 5, 2013 10:12 AM :>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

What it has to do with the left is very simple:

1) It likely proves that the WMD ingrediants and their containers were removed from Iraq to Syria prior to the Invasion of Iraq by the Coalition.The lefty dems, now Obama fascists said that there was no proof of WMD upon which the invasion was predicated, when in fact the majority of Sadam Husseins WMDs were trucked out of Iraq into Syria by the Russians and the French, who were involved in trading WMDs for oil.ITS TIME FOR THE LEFT TO EAT CROW ON THE ISSUE. Their attempt to rewrite history has failed.

2) What does it have to do with US? Well guess what it has to do with Israel, who are next on the Assad list of his defined vermin to be exterminated using WMDs!

Halper is a few bricks short of a load.Obama is so weak on these Syria/Libya issues that he looks like a tattered little guttersnip internationally. But he just keeps campaigning to redefine facts....until someone or something shuts him down.The bullet of reality will soon be catching up to him and his little pustulated, pestilantial, putrified running dogs like Halper.

Typical liberal, Obama is. Talks a big aggressive game about “red lines” but doesn’t want to deal with it when his mouth is writing checks his ass can’t—or won’t—cash.

I have no problem at this point with letting Syria sort its business out without our intervention unless they try and pull Israel into it, but the signals coming out of Washington now are so inconsistent—big talk and no action—that we’re probably going to end up hip-deep in that tar pit before this is all over.

I don’t disagree. But Zero has been running smack about “red lines” and trying to actually sound like he’s got a pair of testicles (other than Michelle’s) for weeks now. All of a sudden, when the feces impact the rotary ventilator, he goes “Uh...LOOK! SQUIRREL!”

Just another reason other countries do not pay any attention to what this twerp has to say.
