Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., filed a House resolution Tuesday looking to block U.S. involvement in the Middle East conflict between Iran and Israel.

Massie's resolution features numerous Democrat co-sponsors, including progressive legislators like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, D-N.Y.; Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich.; and Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn.

If passed, the resolution would block President Donald Trump from engaging in "unauthorized hostilities" with Iran.

Then Congress can vote on a declaration of war. I’m firmly with Massie on this one.

No ... you’re just full of yourself.

DallasBiff has you pegged perfectly in #38.

You know it. I know it. He knows it. We all know it.

You should just openly admit it. It would at least be intellectually honest.

Then please tell us what we gained from out involvement in Vietnam other than 50,000 dead Americans? At the end of the day the smelly hippies were right

I don’t believe I would have been that way at all. My entire point is that I probably would have been like you, supporting every deep state war, if I grew up during that period.

Why doesn’t Massie, the stupid worthless POS, just take his little clown car and join the dem party then?

“So if a nuclear bomb falls on Tel Aviv, no big deal to you.”

Tel Aviv? It’s like West LA.

Mixed emotions . . .

“How about “ endable wars”?

Like…no more Iranian enrichment facilities”

What’s your metric? Who decides?

China kills more Americans with Fentanyl every year.
North Korea enslaves their whole population.
Pakistan allows Honor Killings.
India kills more people with horrific pollution every year.

Why not take them out too?

Don’t get me wrong.
I’m not against Israel taking out the phoookin savages.
Their fight.
Be happy to sell them all the weapons they need.
Sell, not Give.

50,000 died in Korea, South Korea is a prosperous and peaceful country today, North Korea is where people are starving.

Dont forget about the 3 million killed by the communist Khmer Rouge.

JMO, you were probably one who spitted on the returning Vietnam vets.

Dont go all hyperbolic here.
We are talking about taking out ONE massive WMD facility in Iran.
That will effectively end the Iranian nuclear weapons program.
Israels doing a pretty good job on the rest of the problem
Just dont let them lose

Stick to the issue of whether given Irans behavior as a savage destabilizing intolerant aggressive and inhumane regime (by western values) is justified,

and whether saving their nuc weapon program by standing off, OR assisting Israel in destroying it, is in the best strategic interests of the US and our allies

Time to call them out as too irresponsible and unstable to possess this weapon
And non agreement capable as a negotiating party

Boo hoo..said it

The War Powers Act is unconstitutional.

Is it OK with you if the Mullahs surrender and we accept their surrender—or should we go to Congress first?

Lol.

Wrong war. I said Vietnam not Korea. And you didn’t answer the question. You just deflected and launched a personal attack. You sound like a Democrat

If the mullahs surrender, then why would we have to go to war with them? You’re making zero sense.
