So NOW you hate Obama for talking to congress?

I think they'll let him lob some missiles. It's good for their stock portfolios.

From the M to the I to the C
 
You NEVER allow a dem president to have the power thy need to protect us.

Yet you dress up and march singing hail to the chief when your assholes spew LIES to take us to war
 
If bill Clinton had killed OBL and prevented 911 you would have spewed hate on him to this day for it
 
You see NO foreign threats when we have a dem as pres.

You see nothing but threats when your war mongers are at the helm.


I backed Bush into afganistan.


You back NOTHING Obama does.

Even shit all over him when he uses republican ideas of the near past and act as if they are created by the devil.

the devil was your party who created individual mandate.


facts don't matter and the country doesn't matter.

The only thing you idiots care about is your party that most of you are not even willing to label yourselves a part of.

hate is your engine and your rutter and sails.

this country has gone insane
 
After repubs bitching because Obama wasn't going to consult Congress, now they come up with this:

Arguably the most amazing response to the news came from Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.), the chair of the House Homeland Security Subcommittee on Counterintelligence & Terrorism, and a member of the House Intelligence Committee:

"President Obama is abdicating his responsibility as commander-in-chief and undermining the authority of future presidents. The President does not need Congress to authorize a strike on Syria."​

I mean, repubs, not like you had any credibility left anyway, but this is pretty blatant stupidness even for you guys.

from later in the article:
The dirty little secret is that much of Congress was content to have no say in this matter. When a letter circulated demanding the president seek lawmakers' authorization, most of the House and Senate didn't sign it -- some were willing to let Obama do whatever he chose to do, some didn't want the burden of responsibility. Members spent the week complaining about the president not taking Congress' role seriously enough, confident that their rhetoric was just talk.

It spoke to a larger problem: for far too many lawmakers, it's so much easier to criticize than govern. In recent years, members of Congress have too often decided they're little more than powerful pundits, shouting from the sidelines rather than getting in the game.

And after all mccain's saber rattling he comes up with the following - guess Pres Obama is just not bloodthirsty enough for him:
There is a real possibility that Congress will simply decline to give the president the authorization he seeks. I suspect Obama will get the votes he needs, but note that Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), two senators who never saw a country they weren't tempted to bomb, issued a statement this afternoon that read:

"We believe President Obama is correct that the Assad regime's use of chemical weapons requires a military response by the United States and our friends and allies. Since the President is now seeking Congressional support for this action, the Congress must act as soon as possible.

"However, we cannot in good conscience support isolated military strikes in Syria that are not part of an overall strategy that can change the momentum on the battlefield, achieve the President's stated goal of Assad's removal from power, and bring an end to this conflict, which is a growing threat to our national security interests. Anything short of this would be an inadequate response to the crimes against humanity that Assad and his forces are committing. And it would send the wrong signal to America's friends and allies, the Syrian opposition, the Assad regime, Iran, and the world -- all of whom are watching closely what actions America will take."​

In other words, McCain and Graham realize Obama is eyeing narrow, limited military intervention, and they're outraged -- they want a broader conflict with a massive U.S. role. They may well vote against a measure on Syria because it doesn't go far enough in their eyes.
 
In spite of all the partisan back and forth and gripping, going to Congress for authorization is what Obama SHOULD DO.

Everything else is just partisan bullshit.

There is no way this congress will approve authorization of force, right?

So obama gets to take the affirmative stance of "I am so going to bomb you guys"

While allowing congress to give him the out as if his hands are tied when the authorization fails.






fucking A have a little self respect


your hate has rotted your brain

How did you express your respect for President Bush? Just curious
