GOP congressman: 'Most of the public' doubts Assad used chemical gas
Washington Examiner ^ | April 13, 2018

Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., says he believes a majority of the public doubts the official U.S. government contention that Syrian President Bashar Assad used chemical gas against the final rebel-held town near Damascus.

“Anybody who has tried to explain to me why Assad would do this sounds like a conspiracy theorist,” said Massie, a libertarian Republican from Kentucky. “It requires really contorted thinking to think Assad did this. You have to come up with very complicated reasons.”

“I cannot think of a reason he would,” Massie said.

“I cannot think of a reason he would,” Massie said.
Because he is an insane dictator?
Because he has gotten away with it before?
Because he counts on politicans like you covering for him?
Because he was told to by Russia?
The list is endless!

Thank you - so many “experts” who have only their imaginations to go on weighing in and ready to dump the best President in our lifetime because they are so dang smart - circular firing squad anyone?

Been watching the newscasts along with the UN and NATO meetings the idiot Ruskies insisted on - have to say that they seem to have removed all doubt.

Did you miss Reagan's bombing of Libya? There's a big difference between doing limited bombing to send a message to all parties, versus months of bombing, decapitation of the leadership and creation of a failed state like Obama and Clinton in Libya. Fortunately we have a president who knows the difference.

Like I said - he has access to info that we don’t. If he felt there was a good enough reason to go, then I support him.

“...What right or place do we have, to do anything in Syria?...”

Oh, I don’t know, how about the fact that if that guy has stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, has NO compunction about using them, and say, decides to SELL them to some rogue mudsh*t sect...

We aren’t “IN” Syria. We degraded their stockpile of chemical weapons.

Absolutely agree. I was simply quoting the article.

Obama was a p*ssy against anyone except our own people.

Trump means what he says.

Seems to be a recurring thing on our side.

Not me, though. I’m in for the long haul.
