Now,... let’s get on to threatening Iran to get rid of their nucs! They’ll really be quaking, now!!


“Iran, do you want to hear another speech like this one?? We will condemn your actions! No country can stand that!”

Elections have consequences.

Next time America, choose wisely.

Must be raining in DC today.

That shouldn't matter. The Fairy King can hop in AF1 and fly to whatever golf course he wants to.

Find a way to get IMPOTUS to Rush .... he’ll hang it around Barry’s neck like a millstone.

“If Boehner was against this, why has he been so quiet?”

He’s not against it.

Congress dearly hoped that his emminence would do it without their OK. That way they wouldn’t have to be “for it before they were against it.”

I am president of the world’s oldest Constitutional democracy

That would be "republic", not "democracy", Mr. Obama.

I could see this being Putin's reaction to Obama.

Boehner is probably spending the weekend with his Rastafarian son in law.

Chris Wallace “The polls must have been really bad for Obama to come out and announce he will wait for the vote from congress on Sept. 9th.” (LOL! Kruathammer “The most amazing thing is the lack of urgency! There is a war going on. Is everyone just going to step aside and wait? This is amateur hour! He should have built a consensus. This looks like a president who botched himself into a corner and is looking for a way out.”

Krauthammer says the most astonishing thing is the LACK of URGENCY.

Thinks Zippy should go to Congress, but this is amateur hour. Should have had the debate immediately, not tell the world this HAS to be done, and then says I have to wait for Congress.

He looks like a President who has boxed himself into a corner and is now looking for a way out.

Thank You Lord for this blessing.

Yep, at least delayed for a time. They'll be back, after more scheming.

KRAUTHAMMER.......Astonishing lack of urgency. I can strike whenever I want. Amateur hour. Tell the world this has to be done and then pull out. A pres who boxed himself into a corner and looking for a way out.

He's waiting until September 9 so he can attack on September 11, or at least have all the headlines on the job that day.

It beats having to face all the hoopla about the "One Year Anniversary of Benghazi". That one will be successfully buried.

Next year by September 11, 2014, his empty "Syria threat" will also be successfully buried.

“folks are missin why he just now included Congress.....he needs money for this attack”

Bolten mentioned that last night on Greta. He said congress could not fund it.

Bolton said Obama believes our strength in the world is the cause of the problems and that a weaker US will lead to peace. A weaker US is Obama’s comfort zone. He said we will have to wait 1200 days for a real president and then reclaim our proper place in the world.

My analysis:

1. The idiot spoke too soon
2. He got caught without evidence and relying on the arab league for his information
3. Evidence is mounting that the rebels did this with the idiots help
4. Saner heads and statesmen from OTHER countries wisely detected the scam and refuse to get caught up in it.
5. Statesmen from other countries are getting sick of the idiot talking smack and jive.
6. The public is against this and the idiot wants the public to love him
7. Defer to Congress so he can blame Congress.

The idiot sounded anything but presidential. “his” military. What a sickening disgrace.

The obastard is nothing but a mouthy, trash talking half-black boy. Somebody needs to take him to the woodshed or worse. Putin?
