I don't understand why the American taxpayers keep having to cover the cost of Obama's dream fixes to healthcare and now the Middle East. First it was money - now he wants the blood of our sons and daughters, husbands and fathers. When Bush was in office, America was economically strong enough (and militarily strong enough) to do the preventative thing and try to stop those weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Obama has crushed our economy to the point that we can't afford the preventative. It's like preventative maintenance on our cars - sometimes we can afford it and sometimes we can't.
Bill Clinton isn't supporting the Affordable Care Act - he's lobbying top Democrats for their support of Hillary's run for President in 2016. Those two are becoming sad old hacks willing to sell their soul (and ours) so that they can go down in history as the first husband and wife Presidents. It's all about them.
If Obama and the American military are concerned that chemical weapons may be used in America on Americans, why not do what Israel has done - issue gas masks to every man, woman, and child. Can't afford it? Hello. It would be paid for by THE PEOPLE through their tax dollars! What's that you say? You SPENT ALL OF OUR TAX DOLLARS ON HIRING YOUR CZARS, PROMOTING THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT, UNEMPLOYMENT, THE BENGAHZI APOLOGY, TRANSPORTING MICHELLE'S ENTOURAGE ON YOUR ENDLESS VACATIONS..... ?! That sounds like what a spoiled son would do - spend his parent's retirement and his children's inheritance all at the same time.
And, yes, I use capital letters AND italics AND exclamation points because I am not a monotone commentator. Get used to it or get over it.

Personal
I was on my knees just now, praying to God and asking him to stop our sons pain. Don't even fix the injury - just stop his pain. A vision flashed into my mind of God sitting on His throne in heaven, looking down on me with enormous empathy and love. Empathy means that He truly understands my grief. I felt Him say, "Who is there to help My Son in His pain? Even after His death on the cross for the sins of man, mankind still sins." He said this with great love and kindness to let me know that He understands my grief. Will He stop our sons pain? I don't know, but I do know that He understands. Maybe, just maybe, if you and I sin a bit less today, my sons pain will be a bit less.

What?
(Keep your eyes on ALL of the balls Obama is supposedly juggling. Don't you take your eyes off of any of the things Washington, D.C. has caused to be in motion. Refer to The List.)
Is this Syrian thing, coming to Congress for a vote of approval, is it all about backing Republicans into a corner and forcing them to increase the debt limit and lifting Sequestration in order to pay for this "strike?" That, of course, and Obama saving face after declaring a "red line."
Here's an interesting list from http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-09-03/why-did-obama-choose-syria compiled by J.P.Morgan Asset Management:
If Obama hasn't sent the weapons he promised, why don't we try that before tossing rockets? Besides, now we don't even know where Assad has moved the targets to. Give the weapons to the rebels and let them deal with it on their own. How about that? (Uh, tell me again who makes up the "rebels.)
Ah-ha! Obama is coming to Congress because America "striking" Syria is against international law!! and the United Nations has publicly said so. AGAIN Obama ignores the rule of law (even if it is a UN law...), and he, on behalf of America, is encouraging other countries to do the same.
Any comments will come to me privately. If they add to the conversation - whether I agree with them or not - I will post them. If they are full of discord and wrath or are not grounded in sound facts, I will NOT post them. It's my blog. Be civil or be quiet. I love a good political conversation; I abhor tactless arguments. I admire folks who can talk politics - or religion - and remain respectful.

How?
Because Obama and all of Congress have lost almost ALL credibility with the American people, HOW are we supposed to believe a single solitary thing that is being said in these hearings on Syria?
How can Kerry talk about American values when he and his party sanction, fund, and promote mass human abortion in America ? Weapons of mass destruction seems to include scalpels and forceps.
John Boehner, Republican leader and Speaker of the House, announced he is in support of taking action in Syria - and the stock market tanked. You would think the Stock Market would like our going to war because it will increase manufacturing, corporate revenues and jobs.
Totally different thought process: There are some really rich Democrats out there. Do you think it's possible for them to use their money to influence stock market fluctuations? Is that why IT is no longer a trustworthy indicator of what's going on in America?
Is Kerry pulling a "Pelosi?" Approve this action on Syria and then you will find out what's in it.
Age has nothing to do with maturity. Maturity comes usually from having suffered some consequences for ones actions or inactions and learning that thinking or acting (or not acting) comes with irreversible consequences for oneself or family or nation. In my opinion (and remember, it's my blog :), in my opinion Obama's "red line" comment is proof positive of his personal and political immaturity.
Marco Rubio just responded to Kerry: I assure you it will be in the resolution." They are already drafting the language beginning with, "Be it resolved..." Words matter folks. The INSTANT the voting is complete - regardless of which way it goes - you had better be prepared to duck and cover. You must follow this discussion on Syria. And you must read what the opposition has to say or you will be fooled by your own lack of information. You must be intellectually honest, not just be a blind party loyalist. Clear the cobwebs, my friends. Use YOUR brain.

Taunting
Kerry says, "If Assad would be foolish enough to use chemical weapons after whatever action we take..." Hello. He was foolish enough to do it - twice! - already. Don't you know, Kerry (and Obama) when you are being taunted?
Reserving comments until confidential discussions take place tomorrow, and hearing talking heads use the phrase "political capital," does that mean behind closed doors the Monopoly game comes out and political deals will be negotiated behind those doors? Vote for action in Syria and we'll give you Boardwalk and Park Place; vote against it and you may end up with the "Go directly to jail" card.
Senator Murphy from Connecticut says he's thankful that Obama trusts the American people and their elected representatives to join him in this Syria question. Well, why doesn't he trust us on the Affordable Care Act nonsense? Only 59% are against doing anything in Syria; 80% are against the ACA. Why does Obama feel a need to come to Congress on 59% opposition, but not 80% opposition?
Now Kerry is saying chemical weapons have been used "not once, or twice, but in the teens." I'm curious, are these the same chemical weapons that Saddam Hussein moved out of Iraq before we could capture or destroy them? And are they the same chemical weapons that Assad is now moving out of Syria before we can capture or destroy them?
Obama says that Syria has 1,000 tons of chemical weapons stockpiled. Do the math. That's 2,000,000 pounds of chemicals. How did the international community allow that to happen? Two million pounds!! Tell me again what purpose the United Nations serves?
Senator Rand Paul says all of this going to Congress business is mere theatre IF Obama takes action in Syria even if Congress votes, on behalf of America, to not take unilateral action. You go, Senator Paul.
Who is doing the taunting now? Obama is taunting Congress and the American people.
