The Senate Foreign Relations Committee was kabuki theatre at its best. They knew how this would play out, good buddies John & John. McCain would threaten to pull his vote unless his amendments were approved. Where did Coons backing suddenly come from? What sweet deal was he offered?

Predictably, McCain/(Coons) amendments were adopted ... by voice vote. No member would go on record.

Good points!

To emphasize a point I made in my post. Remember Cairo speech? So arrogant, few realized the breadth of arrogance, nor Obama's true intentions.

Obama's secret ME policy lies in ruins --- Benghazi/Libya, Egypt, now Cameron's Syria "defection"---surprises all out of his control, maddeningly out of his control.

Congress "leaders" will do what they will do, but behind the scenes, Obama is in a purple rage. Dumped his rage on Congress (brilliant! took the page from Cameron's and his humiliating defeat and sent it to Congress---and like Cameron, Obama reserves the right to ignore Congress (like Cameron DIDN'T); then he dumped on Cameron and UK; UN blocked him; NATO blocked him; now he his dumping on the "world" --- "it's not my red line; it's YOUR red line."

The Obama psyche is on tilt.

Kerry reduced to this statement of squalor:

Kerry: Arab Countries Offered to Pay for Invasion

Poignant and cogent comments on this thread. Many posts asking, Does that reduce the US military to a mercenary or a whore?
