"Certain U.S. forces recently deployed to Jordan solely to participate in a training exercise. This exercise ended on June 20, 2013.

The US is AT WAR in country after country,
and the US Congress does nothing.

Nothing as weapons go to al Qaeda.

Nothing as the DHS goes after AMERICANS.

Nothing as 20,000 felons are released.

Nothing after benghazi.

Exactly and Libs screamed when Bush “declared war”...where are the republicans on pointing out to public/video camera on 0bummer deploying troops/i.e., declaring war on all these countries? He’s doing in on purpose so no one will want to be in military anymore to weaken us.

That has got to be one of the most premature, not to say hypocritical, acts in history. All the screeching heard round the world about the US trying to police the world, the evil American warmongerers, etc-and of all Presidents, this one gets awarded the Nobel “Peace” Prize, when he’s arbitrarily instigated more military actions than other Presidents combined. He gets awarded for breathing while black.

The timing is suspicious, after he already flip flopped on helping Syria after threats by Russia if he supported Assad’s opposition. But he needs a war to distract for the growing revelations that the administration has shredded the Fourth Amendment in addition to undermining the first and second ones.

And once the boots are on the ground and the K’mir Rouge in Syria are fully armed and enraged, there will be a similar result.

We are Americans. We can take the truth. We need the truth. We are a free people and we can make our own individual decisions. What in the hell have the Democrats done that we need Patriot missiles in Turkey and Jordan? The Syrian Air Force isn’t a threat to anyone.
