O'Bagy was a young but well-respected adviser at the Institute for the Study of War and had emerged quickly as an important voice among those arguing in favor of intervention in Syria.

I’ve looked into the rules and unfortunately Senators cannot be recalled.

It sucks. There may be a way to but I couldn’t find it.

Maybe it’s a very good thing that McCain got elected. He may have started World War III. It seems like he wants the United States at war with every country, no matter what
