On her Friday MSNBC program, host Andrea Mitchell tried to ease the concerns of Democratic Congresswoman Barbara Lee and other members of Congress calling for a congressional vote on military action in Syria: "Barack Obama, as you know better than I do, was one of the leading Democratic politicians against the Iraq War. So if he says that this is different, that the evidence is there....does that persuade you since he has always come at this from a very cautious anti-war perspective?" [Listen to the audio]
Accepting the odd juxtaposition of the President launching missile strikes from an "anti-war perspective," Lee responded: "And I'm very pleased that the President has come at this in a very cautious manner....But also that has nothing to do with our constitutional responsibility as members of Congress, Andrea."

The people in the media are so tied to Obama at the hip...Very diplomatic of you. I was thinking they are more attached to his nether regions.

Thanks Texas Eagle.

"Trust Obama,"
That's irrelevant and won't happen much. He's another celebrity, who gets piles of attention from piles of celebrity worshippers mesmerized by television.
"He's Going to Bomb Syria 'From A Very Cautious Anti-War Perspective'"
He'll have muster all of the guts he has only to let U.S. military commanders do what they think is best and make speeches pretending that it was all his doing. That's what presidents have done all along, and everyone should know it by now.

In this case, Mitchell’s main squeeze (bleah!) is former Fed Chairman, Alan Greenspan.

Remember, she wrote it down before she said it.
Kind of like Obama’s Teleprompter, somebody writes it down before Lord Obama mouths the idiotic words he spews.

Or any of the hundreds of reporters that enjoy the exquisite taste.
Daytime, night-time, any time is the right time for shoe polish!
