It’s the John and Linda show. Why should it make sense?

Saudi Arabia wants Assad, a Shi’ite to their Sunnism, gone. That’s the only reason the US has for finding him any different than any other despot in the region.

Their involvements in any other Islamic country have been disasters.

Even their so-called attacks against ISIS are piecemeal and ineffective, nothing more than window dressing until after the November elections.

I’m quite certain that if Obama were president of Syria instead of Assad that Obama would be more horrendous than is Assad. At this point, the only thing preventing Obama from despotism here are our traditions of rule of law and of divided government.

And supposed 'conservatives' are whining about the dreaded 'military industrial complex'.

The total bill for the Iraq war by the time all the VA expense are completed, will be over three trillion dollars.

We can't afford EITHER the welfare state or this kind of stupidity. Iran was more of a problem than Saddam Hussien.

Idiots McCain and Graham. The minute Assad falls, the chaos will exponentially multiply in the middle east. If you want to be assured of WW3, then get rid of Assad...

Dear Juan, go pose with more terrorists.....and thanks again SC for your continued lunacy.

Syrians are already asking why we’re bombing ISIS but not stopping Assad’s attacks on them. Good question.

It is? Really? That's a "good" question? John McCain and his mini-me have gone full retard.

......

My answer would be that ISIS is executing American civilians and Assad is not.
Its not our job to overthrow every government that oppresses its citizens.

Ha. Sounds like the “moderate rebels” are threatening to reveal the details about the “Sarin gas” attack again. Every month or so on Arab TV they start threatening “western leaders” by promising to spill the beans about that little “red line” operation from last year. McCain and Graham start squealing like little piggies for increased support every single time. You watch, there will be news of a weapons delivery to the moderates/isis guys in a few days. They must be running low on ammo again.

They’re probably cooking dinner for their “friends across the aisle”...

0bama’ wet dream has been to remove Assad. ISIS will then move into the vacuum, like a recipe for takeover.

AQ blow people and things up. These guys are like Genghis Khan—butchers.

Everyone understood the Khan. Surrender or die. So it is, apparently, with ISIS. Sometimes, it’s both.

Amen....Ghadaffi removal created a vacuum that caused Benghazi, and gave terrorists 400 surface to air missiles and ISIS is probably who have them now.

If Juan and Linda say we should.....

The Obama admin next idea is to remove Putin. ISIS will also take over that territory.

They are workin’ on it. If anyone really believes that Europe is going to stop that, they are delusional. They have loaded Europe with muzzies.

You are correct. I forget how many former Soviet republics are moslem, but it’s quite a few, especially there on the steppe. And Russia is vast.

Wow you should have put a barf alert in front of that one.

Sounds made up though
