Republicans - listen up

If you vote "For" and things go bad, you'll get the blame;

if you vote "Against," you'll get the blame.

You'll get blamed no matter how you vote.

So vote "Present"

Let the Democrats have it - he's their President.

“If this congress passes the Syria war with no additional evidence of info about the goals and exit plans, we are looking at president Rand Paul in three years.”

Not a bad thing in my view. Not my top choice, but a pretty good one after Ted Cruz and Sarah.

If ever there was an issue that we should have no interest in, this be the one.

Muslim crazies killing other Muslim crazies, good for us, probably good for Israel as well.

As Napoleon said, "When your enemy is making mistakes, don't interfere".

Wrong, John. They'd be doing their job. Article I, Section 8

The Congress shall have power...
To declare war, grant letters of marque and reprisal, and make rules concerning captures on land and water;

I reread Article II just to be sure. I couldn't find "The President shall have the power to lob explosives anywhere he damn well pleases without having to ask anyone." Maybe it's a penumbra.

I disagree. We’re led by kakistocrats.

I had to look that word up. lol I believe this is all about getting at Iran. The creation of a distraction is an added benefit along with other benefits for our mil/ind complex.

I say Iran, because of the involvement I've seen by the Saudis and even Israel.

John McLame, once again redefining hyperbole. He’s the biggest catastrophe second only to the imposter poser in the white hut.

If this congress passes the Syria war with no additional evidence of info about the goals and exit plans, we are looking at president Rand Paul in three years.

I wish but, I doubt it...

You are basing that statement that the majority of citizens of this country want to be free...but an ever increasing part of this country will willingly give up freedom for security...

Even a poverty stricken one...

You are right on the mark!!! I watched both McCain & Graham take questions on the White house driveway this afternoon and got sick listening to both of them. They should be thrown out of the Republican party, today!!! Listening to them say that Obama didn’t do this or didn’t do that over the last two years....and then hear them say they are ready to listen to what he (Obama) has to say!!!! Both are morons, IMHO!!!

Why? Because the answer to this problem is to first remove the person who created this mess from having any position of power!!! And who is that person??? Well...after listening to these two bozos, that person is none other then POTUS Barack Hussein (I love the Muslim Brotherhood & their Al Qaeda allies) Obama!!! And....what to do.....listen to Obama and do more of what he says...or impeaching him to rid our country of this totally incompetent, anti-American failure!!!! The answer from both McCain & Graham should have been Impeach Obama....but, sadly....it was simply well....we see a ray of hope he may develop a strategy!!! Idiots!!!

Any Republican that votes to support Obama in launching attacks on Syria should be contested in upcoming primaries and defeated!!! End of story!!! These two guys have either been smoking too much reefer or drinking too much Obama Kool-Aid!!! Pubbies....get rid of them!!!

Well, you’re probably right. I can think of few people who are so consistently working for the other side, whatever it might be. The only thing I don’t understand is why the good people of Arizona keep voting for the guy.

McCain has forgotten his imprisonment. Either that, or he has decided it’s time to side with the enemy. He should be strung up by the thumbs.

No pun intended.

McCain is drooling at the thought of the stacks of money that’s going to be stuffed in his pockets if we go to war with Syria
