Unbelievable!
His argument for asking Congress for approval to strike Syria is because of the use of chemical weapons. There is no threat to the United States. He refers to the international norm against using chemical weapons, and if I understood him correctly, he said this should be the standard bearer for any President when making a decision to act. But, this was not okay for him when President Bush made the argument. What happens if we find ourselves in this position again in the future but a Republican is in the White House? Just asking!
I stated in my post yesterday that as a superpower we do have an obligation to ensure brutal dictators do not rise to power, or oppress a nation if they do happen to get to power. However, in this case, in Syria's case, we do not have clear evidence as to who used these weapons, just that these weapons were used. We do not know who the good guys are and who the bad guys are, there are just too many rebel groups involved.
The progressive mind and agenda may work in theory and in fantasy. It does not work in real life. The incompetence of how to function on the world stage when working in the progressive agenda puts us all at risk. We are seeing it play out right before our eyes. 2016 cannot get here fast enough. I HOPE and pray Americans will remember this when they go to the polls and vote for a leader who understands the reality of how to engage on the global arena.
