What happened to the big red line in the sand?
What happened to the gassing deaths of 400 children and two times as many adults?
What happened to Obama's moral outrage that Syria gassed all these people?
What happened to all the strong words Obama, John Kerry and others said about the dictator Assad?
Now, Obama is saying "Never Mind".
While I didn't think it was good policy for us to bomb Syria, at least I thought it was good that Obama stood by his principals and he was going to do what was right.
In the words of the SNL character, Emily Litella, "Never mind"
So, it's confirmed: there is nothing Obama could do in this situation that you wouldn't complain about?
ReplyDeleteI think a diplomatic solution is INFINITELY better than an attack/invasion. Don't you?
Jamie, Obama has made this an apples to oranges type thing.
ReplyDeleteAt first, he wanted to punish Syria for what they did now he is satisfied that they get rid of their weapons, maybe.
What happened to his moral outrage? How did he hurt Syria?
Assad is probably very happy to get rid of the weapons, so you're not hurting him and you are taking people who are guarding the weapons and putting them in their field now.
Apples to oranges.
