Well, that's good. It isn't your decision to make, it's a decision that Congress must make. You aren't King.

    This is a tough call. We are talking thousands of innocent people in mass graves. Unfortunate, though they didn't act upon it and join the Middle East were trying lay down sanctions which were continually being defile by Assad. The climate is very hostile, besides I have already told you what UN inspectors will find there, that is even if they let them in.

    It is called Genocide.

    Even if congress approves, we don't know who used chemicals and likely never will.

    Yes. If he doesn't go to Congress he must think he's king. Something that hasn't been done since Pearl Harbor. Having said that, I do want him to go to Congress because the GOP is blood thirsty for impeachment.

    funny thing is under a white president the gop would be all in favor of attacking.

    I'm not seeing race being a factor in this one. It could be any Democrat in office and they'd still be doing the same thing. Who can forget the millions of dollars wasted on the Clinton impeachment? They are sharks in the water and just looking for the slightest drop of blood to attack.

    if romney were president we would have gone in immediately.

    these guys are gonna oppose it if obama wants to go in, and they will call him a coward and terrible leader if he doesn't. the man can not win with these dickheads in congress.

    race has been a factor in everything the gop has done in the last 2 terms.

    I don't care who is President, and I don't care what party has the office. NO President is authorized to conduct military attacks without Congressional approval. We are not under any threat that time would be an issue. Just like Libya, any attack without approval is ILLEGAL.

    Stop pointing fingers at the GOP especially when you are doing the EXACT same thing.

    Whatever happened to the anti-war left? Oh it's ok cause it is your guy. You are no different than those you criticize. Don't worry, the Libertarians and Constitutionalists are coming.

    The last war Congress declared was World War II. Everything since—Korea, Vietnam, Grenada, Panama, Iraq, Bosnia, Afghanistan, Iraq (again!) and Libya—has been fought with something less than a full-throated declaration of war by the U.S. Congress

    Who is pointing fingers? I'm sorry, but it looks like you at the left. I'm a lifelong Democrat and I'm against intervention.

    i am sick of fighting fucking wars. i am sick of protesting. it gets us nowhere. the warmongering in both parties has broken me.

    i am anti war. i am against any intervention at any time.

    you can not be anti war and support military action. no matter who the president is.

    why can't we take care of our own people for once?

    we can't get a universal health insurance system, but we can sure as fuck pay for a stealth bomber or 15, and then rebuild what we blow up.

    to me obama is worse than bush regarding war.

    bush laid out his case, even though it was all a lie.

    obama has done no such thing.
