No.
Most FReepers don't consider the War Powers Act as Constitutional.

Ah. Invading the borders of a sovereign nation.

Remember when the left said we shouldn’t do that to Iraq? Anyone?

Bueller?

It is not a conspiracy you philosophical-lite. Apparently you woke up yesterday at about 5pm, from a 10 year nap and have not followed any current events in awhile. You have not followed the Benghazi weapons deal from about 2 years ago, when we where sending ISIS they equipment. Or a year ago when obama was begging to attack syria,. You were no paying attention to how obama was getting outmatched by Putin. Anyway, go back into your slumber and quit throwing around the accusation that I am a conspiracy type guy, which I can be, but not in this case. It isn’t like I said Gabby Giffords never got shot. I am nearly trying to figure out what is the big picture.

However, yes they are a pawn, we gave them their weapons, if you cannot wrap your mind around this, then I do not know what to tell you. Good day.

“Benghazi weapons deal... sending ISIS they equipment.... obama was begging to attack Syria.... obama was getting outmatched by Putin.

Well, there it is. The Putinista’s fantasy of an ISIS armed by the US in order to create the pretext for attacking the noble Putin ally Syria. Let us all lament the potential reduction of valiant Putin’s petro income posed by the completion of the Arabian pipeline.

I’m with you, sovereign state, no congressional authority, no U.N. authorization, commie Marxist Islamic punk at the helm. All this will do is undermine U.S. credibility world wide for many years to come. It’s astounding that these Fabian Progressives get to operate on an entirely different rule set.

Obummer is headed to the UN today. However, before he departs the WH, he will give a speech to the American People from the WH - - not on bombing Syria or ISIS/ISIL but on GLOBAL WARMING - guess he has to back-up what SOS John F. Kerry (who served in Viet Nam) has been flying around the glove preaching. I think I heard o n FNC he’s speech is supposed to start at 10 something Eastern. Too bad I’ll be getting ready for work and miss it /s

That is the sort of thing that concerns me. Another country wanting to use a trumped up excuse to make a point by running armed drones along our border with Messy-co.

If anyone even thought about such a thing, the U.S. would be up in arms, livid at the prospect that a country could suggest violating our sovereign airspace and international boundary.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

Putin’s dog in the fight is mostly a customer for arms who owes Putin and his empire money. Beyond that, Putin’s got no real reason to be interested in keeping Iran and Assad empowered beyond his malice for the West.

"Several months ago we never heard of ISIS. Now the media fills up 12 hours of their broadcast day telling us how evil they are, and even gives them free advertising and air time by publishing what they want us to believe and their studio videos. Who benefits? Americans?"

"Why are we attacking Syria...."

"Illegal. Congress did not ever authorize any President to attack Syria. Why are Freepers cheering this!?!?!? "


Thank you, you guys have restored my faith in humanity. Except that I go further than that. I'm honestly amazed that people are still falling for all the propaganda. I can see that our nation needs a lot of prayer.... prayer for people to wake up.

“Oh, and Fox keeps hammering away at “this is a LEGENDARY coalition!””

FOX has decided to rollover like every other controlled consolidated media outlet to protect and support the political elites and status quo. The media’s job once was to protect society from government corruption and dishonesty. Their job now is to be in partnership with the political corruption intended to destroy America.

My consistent profile for 5 years has been one that the media works against protecting Americans from corrupt self serving politicians and media peers.
