Kevin McCarthy calls for no-fly zone over Syria (Joins Fiorina against Russia)
Washington Times ^ | 9/28/15 | Stephen Dinan

Posted on 10/02/2015 4:56:59 AM PDT by jimbo123

The man poised to be the next House speaker said Monday that the U.S. needs to assume a more aggressive posture around the world, saying the key to foreign policy is making it “painful” for countries to misbehave.

Rep. Kevin McCarthy backed calls for a U.S.-enforced no-fly zone over Syria, saying it would boost the fight against the Islamic State rebels and also curtail the Syrian regime’s ability to strike its own citizens.

There is only one test needed to figure out this is all wrong:

The progressive liberal democrat/rino socialist/communists uniparty, are all for it.

In all these years did you ever think...ever...that we would see a situation the like of which we are witnessing? I mean we all knew the left was bad for humanity...but did you ever think we'd see this crap; for real, in our lifetime?

I stand (or sit) stunned.

Maybe them there Chem-Trails they talk about on the raideeoh late at night “are” real after all. And they dumped a few extra loads over our capital.

My dad predicted this sort of inversion before he died. “This is not the country I fought for in WWII” were his words in one of our last political discussions.

The United States government is not the same thing as America.

Obama is going to tell Putin not to fly his jets over Syria? As stupid as that idea is, I’d love to see it.

Now that you mention that, I have heard that from more than one of that generation myself. I am hearing that from Vietnam era veterans as well.

Somethings gotta give.

May the Force be with us.

“And this moron wants to be Speaker?”

What’s worse is that there may be 268 other morons in the House who will vote for him.

Insanity at work here.

And McCain has gone even one step further, calling for anti-aircraft weaponry in the hands of Obama’s favority jihadis.

Yeah... arming the jihadis against the Russians... because it worked out so well in Afghanistan.

My grandfather said the same thing in his last few years. He was a combat engineer that went ashore on Omaha beach on D-Day.

“... arming the jihadis against the Russians... because it worked out so well in Afghanistan.”

The one good thing that came out of that policy is it hastened the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Otherwise, I agree; picking sides in the Middle East has almost always been a fool's game.

Heard a quote from McCarthy yesterday on a Tucson conservative radio show, and when asked what he would do first off in the senate, he said wanted shovel ready jobs and rejigger the bureaucracy.

“We’re going to make sure we get the highway bill done,” McCarthy told MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “We’re going to make sure that we transform these agencies, because these agencies that that we have today — we’d never craft them in the same manner. Look at the flow chart, look at the duplication. Why don’t we go through and revamp the entire process so they work?”
