Obama drew his "red line" last year, and yet he hasn't approached Congress to approve force. Does he consider himself to be a dictator, and is David Korn writing an outline for his new book about this? |

I'm never happy about us entering into more foreign conflict, but this one disturbs me more than usual given the resistance from Russia and China. Not interested in WWIII |

Twist it just a hair more and the body says, "Hey, I'll take it from here because you obviously don't know what you're doing... Lie down now, rest, and we'll talk about this when you regain your senses." It's called the knockout mechanism. | |

I'm not seriously worried about WW3, but don't see why we would want to get in the way of bad guys killing each other. I know that collateral damage is sad and immoral, but don't see how we can stop that without US boots on the ground. Obama's "red line" speech one year ago has complicated the situation. |

Will Joe Biden threaten to start the impeachment process if Obama doesn't get congressional approval on this? He has a history of that.... |

http://www.latimes.com/world/middleeast/la-fg-obama-dilemma-20130828,4290748,7039944.story One U.S. official who has been briefed on the options on Syria said he believed the White House would seek a level of intensity "just muscular enough not to get mocked" but not so devastating that it would prompt a response from Syrian allies Iran and Russia. Too late, when you say shit like that out loud, consider yourselves mocked. |

Get Spielberg on the phone, and see how he would shoot a scene like this. |

He did make the statement about starting impeachment proceedings on Bush if he sought military intervention without congressional approval. |

My buddies? If me thinking we shouldn't go into this unilaterally makes it appear that I'm not a republican, I'm cool with that, because I'm not a republican. We've been over all this before. Considering our current relations with Russia and China I don't think it's a good idea. Obama put himself in this position, thankfully he was smart enough to sit his ego aside this time and let congress decide. Surely you aren't impressed with this administrations foreign policy? |

Self actualization is hard sometimes. And no, I do not want us going into Syria, much less alone. |

This will likely be the least popular decision in Obama's entire political career. br |
