I wonder if Capitol Hill ever has this conversation:

[Aerows]

"We've shouted at the American people how much they need to pinch their pennies, how they need to eat their peas, that now that we want a pony (Syrian war) if they will buy it for us?"

Well, yeah, we need to build a stable, we will need to provide feed and shovel out the horseshit.

Eat your peas, and get ready for horseshit to pile up.
