Hopefully Congress will have a backbone and say "not no, but hell no..."
With the severe budget cuts to our military, and then POTUS has the "nerve" to recommend this?
And why is it that innocents dying via chemical weapons worse than slowly bleeding out or losing limbs, etc., from traditional warfare, which happens every day in various locations around the world? We really have to step in? What about the people of NK slowly starving to death because of their leader's actions?
If I haven't said this before, like a parent, sometimes you have to let your kids work out their own problems. You can't and shouldn't step in every time. I wish our gov't would take this approach more often.
I cannot wait until 2016.

Back in 2009 I could not wait until 2012, look what happened. Unless attitudes drastically change in the country I do not see much changing politically in 2016.
Someone needs to grow a pair and say enough is enough.

Don't forget our innocent next door neighbors in Mexico and their ongoing war.

IMHO , we have two sworn enemies of the US (Syria & AQ) killing each other in their own little sand box. What's wrong with sitting back and let them have at it?

Am confused, but that aside, I cannot believe that the media is going at this play by play like it was an NFL game?:confused:
Some things are not for public consumption, and this is one of them, I would think?:munchin
