This isn’t isolationism. We have exactly ZERO national interest in getting involved in the Syrian Civil War, and one could argue that it’s in our interest to let them keep fighting each other.

And then there’s the use of Chemical Weapons. Syria neither signed nor acceded to the Chemical Weapons Convention, so there isn’t even the pretense of “International Law” here.

Not worth even one American dollar, much less even a single drop of American blood. . . .

I know, it is not isolationist to not want to jump into someone’s civil war

People throw words around and others don’t define their terms

Taft Republicans? I would like to see any kind of Republicans in place of the RINO—Vichi Republicans we have now. McCain and croud should just switch over and be Democrats—they have taken their 30 pieces of silver.

Oh, but there is a national interest at risk here. The risk of Obama losing face!

By looking at the world through a paper towel tube, you fail to see the reality.

The reason for action in Syria is to remove Assad and thereby weaken Iran.

Although Barack Obama is America’s worst enemy, Iran is a close second.
