Of course he would. Raise your hand if you’re the least bit surprised.

Hell we are likely to see a muslim- american free trade agreement that will make NAFTA look like walk in the park.

Reward Syria for 7 years of allowing suicide bombers to cross into Iraq from Syria to murder our Soldiers?

No wonder military moral is going down the tube.

Syria has been meddling in Lebanon’s and Israel’s affairs for years. Right now Hezballah is armed to the teeth again in southern Lebanon, ready to war with Israel. As stated, Syria has aided the terrorists in Iraq. Now Obama rewards Syria with the removal of sanctions. Are we now to add the U.S. to the list of three nations that are terrorist supporting? It’s a reasonable question.

"Reward Syria for 7 years of allowing suicide bombers to cross into Iraq from Syria to murder our Soldiers?"

But did not you hear? The Syrians said they would not do that any more. That's the power of negotiations, you see. Sit down and get results. Obama at his best.

He is really working hard on burying this country.

Can the President to this by himself? Doesn't Congress have a say in this matter?

Mustafa told Syrian television that Obama's administration is "working on suspending articles one at a time until the law is void."

The above could also apply to the Constitution. By the way, here's an important part of the article:

Congress passed the law "to sanction Syria for its support for terrorism, its occupation of Lebanon, its pursuit and development of weapons of mass destruction and missiles, and its failure to support the stabilization and reconstruction of Iraq," according to the website.

So Congress passed the law, and Obama is simply going to ignore it step by step until it's void? Where is the outcry from Congress?

“And what are we getting in return?”

We get to keep the lovely white flag, . . .

And an authentic, signed version of the unconditional surrender!
