Speaker of the House John Boehner says he'll support President Obama's "Call for action" in Syria.
* OF COURSE HE DOES...
(*SIGH*)
"The use of these weapons has to be responded to...
* WHY?
...and only the United States has the capability and capacity to stop Assad and to warn others around the world that this type of behavior is not going to be tolerated," said Boehner after meeting with Obama.
* THAT'S NOT TRUE. ISRAEL HAS THE CAPACITY. TURKEY HAS THE CAPACITY. CERTAINLY BOTH RUSSIA AND CHINA HAVE THE CAPACITY.
"I appreciate the president reaching out to me and my colleagues in the Congress over the last couple of weeks. I also appreciate the president asking the Congress to support him in this action. This is something that the United States as a country needs to do. I'm going to support the president's call for action. I believe my colleagues should support this call for action."
* AND I HOPE THAT YOUR COLLEAGUES DON'T SUPPORT OBAMA AND DON'T SUPPORT YOU SUPPORTING OBAMA!
* YOU "APPRECIATE" THE PRESIDENT SHOWING AT LEAST SOME SURFACE REGARD FOR THE CONSTITUTION AND THE CONSTITUTIONAL SEPARATION OF POWERS...??? REALLY! THAT'S WONDERFUL...
(*SNORT*) (*JUST SHAKING MY HEAD*)
* HERE'S THE QUESTION, A--WHIPE: IF CONGRESS REFUSES TO GRANT OBAMA AUTHORITY TO ATTACK SYRIA IN THE NAME OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WILL YOU SUPPORT YOUR COLLEAGUES AND THE CONSTITUTIONAL RULE OF LAW... OR WILL YOU SUPPORT OBAMA?
"We have enemies around the world..."
* YES... A PART OF THE REASON IS THAT WE KEEP ON BOMBING PEOPLE IN FOREIGN NATIONS!
* OH... AND AT THE SAME TIME WE BOMB ENEMIES WHO CAN'T BOMB US BACK WE CALL THE COMMUNIST (FASCIST?) DICTATORSHIP OF CHINA A FRIEND... TRADE WITH CHINA... AND EVEN HOLD JOINT NAVEL EXERCISES WITH CHINA!
"...that need to understand that we're not going to tolerate this type of behavior. We also have allies around the world and allies in the region who also need to know that America will be there and stand up whether it is necessary."
* YOU GO, MR. SPEAKER. YOU AND THE PRESIDENT GO! THROW ON SOME BODY ARMOR... HEAD ON OVER! BE MY FRIGGIN' GUEST!

House majority leader Eric Cantor says that he intends "to vote to provide the President of the United States the option to use military force in Syria."
* SAME COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS I RAISED RE: BOEHNER'S STATEMENT.
* AGAIN... FOLKS... EFFECTIVELY SPEAKING THERE'S BUT ONE POLITICAL PARTY IN AMERICA - THE WAR PARTY... THE PROGRESSIVE PARTY...

* FLASHBACK - 6 June 2013
Russia has called on Turkey to share its findings in the case of Syrian rebels who were seized on the Turkish-Syrian border with a 2kg cylinder full of nerve gas sarin.
* SYRIAN REBELS...
* SARIN NERVE GAS...
Russia’s top foreign official Sergei Lavrov tolday said the Kremlin wanted to get clear on the issue of chemical weapons used in Syria, since the allegation had taken on the role of a trading card in the conflict, becoming a focus of constant provocations.
“I do not rule out that some force may want to use it [the rumour] to say that the “red line” has been crossed and a foreign intervention is needed,” the minister said. “We are still waiting on a comprehensive report from our Turkish colleagues,” he added, citing the incident when a gang of terrorists carrying a canister with nerve gas sarin was arrested inside the Turkish territory about two weeks ago.
Russia’s chief of foreign affairs has urged the international community to finally take its pick and decide whether it is going to side with forces set to topple the Syrian regime or with the ones calling for a nationwide dialogue on Syrian peace.
Speaking at a press conference, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said: “We want that… the international community took off the blinders that make its focus on its immediate urge to overthrow one leader, then unseat another one, while turning a blind eye on the outcome of these actions.”
* SYRIAN REBELS WITH SARIN NERVE GAS...?!?!

Secretary of State John F. Kerry refused Tuesday to rule out putting U.S. troops on the ground in Syria...
Moments later, however, realizing his statement could be a problem, Mr. Kerry sought to clarify.
* AND FAILED...
He said that Mr. Obama will accept whatever restrictions Congress wants to place to make sure that the U.S. doesn’t get drawn into the actual fight between the regime and the rebels.
“There will not be American troops on the ground with respect to the civil war,” Mr. Kerry said.
* WITH RESPECT TO THE CIVIL WAR...
(*JUST SHAKING MY HEAD*)
* FOLKS... READ THE DOUBLE-TALK FOR YOURSELVES! THESE BASTARDS JUST CAN'T BE TRUSTED!
