Obama: "I understand" American people aren´t with me on Syria strike
CBS News ^ | Scott Pelley

Posted on 09/09/2013 7:12:47 PM PDT by Nachum

WASHINGTON -- In an interview Monday, President Obama responded to a surprising late proposal that could head off a military strike against Syria. The Syrians agreed to a Russian proposal to put their chemical weapons under international control and destroy them. I talked to President Obama about that, and about a threat Syrian dictator Bashar Assad made during an interview with Charlie Rose. SCOTT PELLEY: Can you accept the Russian/Syrian proposal? PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, we don´t know the details of it yet. But I think that it is a potentially positive development. I don´t think that we would´ve gotten to the point where

"And I understand deeply how the American people, after a decade of war, are not interested in any kind of military action that they don't believe involves our direct national security interests. I-- I get that."

Actually, Bammy, I don't think you do. You dug this hole and now you are tap-dancing your heart out trying to dig yourself out.

You've mismanaged everything you have touched and I have no doubt that you will mismanage this. However, of greater concern, is the fact that if you insist on going through with a strike on Syria, you will increase the danger to America and its interests 10-fold!

And, that Mr. Fraud-in-Chief, is what you don't seem to grasp.

With you? Are you serious Obozo?

Americans are so not with you on just about everything you're doing.

Benghazi, Obozocare, Syria, XL pipeline, Green alternatives, Immigration, fiscal mismanagement....damn, you name it.

It’s probably why the bikers were denied their permit to counter Obama’s muslims and their 9-11 tantrum. (Which will probably get wall to wall, breathless media coverage)..

That's not the way it works O'Bomber. It's your job to "be with us".

Amazing drama. Putin is the intelligent good guy, and Steaming is the vile stupid warmongering a**hat.

We figured that out on Friday, after the NSA read all the daily messages and generate poll numbers for you.

0bama would not have punted to congress if the poll numbers were good. 0bama would have kept all the glory for himself

The American people aren’t with you on ANYTHING! The only thing propping you up is your communist propaganda “media” and the legal and illegal foreigners living here.

The RATs aren’t supporting him either on Syria. Some polls show 92% of the American people are against OBayMe. DC switchboard is busy these days.

202-224-3121 ask for the Elitist of your choice.

Will they even hold votes in the House and Senate?

Or will they pretend that their threats of itty bitty teeny weeny strikes that leaves the Cheerios in place really took their toll on a now-chastened Assad?

Obama is daring to be impeached. Throw the book at him.

no not even the black I talk to support it. We picked up a firm NO from Rep Steve Fincher TN, and even from Lamar, he’s up for re-election, and does not want a yes vote on his record, as Tennesseans are sending a loud resounding NO. Corker is not up till the next election after this one, he is a non commit at this point, but he will read the tea leaves. Lamar has a Tea Party challenger Joe Carr, I will be voting for him. It is time to be rid of RINO lamar.
