On Syria, House GOP won’t follow their leaders

[grania]

Would someone please lock this man in an old-age home?

[Gaffer]

He’s holding out for more ‘apps’ for his iPhone, I guess.

[dirtboy]

Yep, it’s not allowing the kind of unchecked aggression that McCain wants.

[dfwgator]

Guess it’s because it doesn’t include nuking Damascus.

[Diogenesis]

He is playing poker, again.

It does not go FAR ENOUGH for terrorist-supporting McCain.

[Blood of Tyrants]

McLame feeling the heat?

[headstamp 2]

This is correct. He wants a wider war with more involvement. Including boots on the ground.

[dfwgator]

War - There’s an app for that.

[Witch-king of Angmar]

Harry Reid must have dealt him a weak hand.

U.S. Senator McCain does not back Senate panel draft authorizing force in Syria

WASHINGTON - U.S. Senator John McCain, a leading Republican voice on military affairs, said on Wednesday he does not support a Senate panel’s draft resolution authorizing the use of force in Syria.

“There are a number of people who are unhappy,” McCain told reporters on Capitol Hill.

The Senate Foreign Relations Committee draft was narrower than the request made by President Barack Obama, and the panel, of which McCain is a member, may vote on it later on Wednesday. McCain has long favored U.S. intervention in the Syrian civil war.

Bwaaaaaaa ha ha ha haaaaaaa!!!

What's the matter, Juan? Dealt a crappy hand?

This guy's not playing with a full deck.

[Buckeye Battle Cry]

It must not be open-ended enough for Barack then.

[TexasCajun]

Our Republican congress should vote on ObamaWar the same way they voted for ObamaCare!

A limited 60-90 Days war just doesn't grab MeCain's attention!

I will only support a plan that has some chance of success. #Syria http://bit.ly/15weKwB

National Security Adviser Susan Rice will brief the Congressional Black Caucus Sept. 9.

Whut, so the Congressional Black Caucus has a say in military matters now?

[tennmountainman]

Why? Because Obama won’t let that nut case McCain push the nuke button?

[elpadre]

Gretchen on F&F read a piece of the Senate resolution which called for the US to get involved in the civil war and find a resolution (or words to that effect)- this must not pass!!

[Tupelo]

Without reading the story, I would guess that The War Lover will not support the draft resolution because it DOES NOT go far enough.
I hate and fear this man probably more than any other.

[IamConservative]

IMO, we need to end these - excuse the metaphor - pussy wars. It started with the “police action” in Korea.

If we engage our military overseas, it should only be by way of a Declaration of War with the will and intent to destroy the enemy and take the spoils of war.
