Gee!... For once Boehner, McCain, and Graham all support the Prez...

Just that tells you something is wrong here

1. No. It just tells you genocide and use of WMD should not be tolerated.

[TM99]

3. So when are the post-partisans

going to intervene into Rwanda? And I sincerely hope they will work together to stop the use of depleted uranium and white phosphorous by US forces. And when exactly is the US going to give up its nuclear arsenal (we are the only nation to actually use them!) and all our biological & chemical weapons? Please read up on the actual specifics of the 'gentleman's agreement' on bio weapons.

4. Ignoring Syria because we havent interveaned in Rwanda is not an excuse.

and what does our nuclear arsenal have to do with kids being gassed and burned alive in Syria? We haven't used any nukes since Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

We have the power to change this genocide, and we should act on it.

That simple.

[TM99]

5. All I see here from supporters of this 'war'

is the tired argument, often emotionally tinged, which states that it is genocide and America must act.

It wasn't a genocide. It was a tragedy. Why must we act now?

Where the hell were you with this faux outrage the last few years? Kids have been dying by the thousands in this bloody civil war. Dead is dead. It doesn't matter if it was from gas or from bullets.

Our nuclear arsenal is relevant as well as depleted uranium and white phosphorous, because we are attempting to take a moral high ground here that somehow we must stop WMD's. We are the only nation to have used the nuclear WMD and continue to use other heinous WMD's in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Again where the hell was your faux moral outrage when kids were dying in Fallujah and the rest of Iraq?

We do not have the 'power' to stop this civil war. If we accept that we do, it can only be done with a full scale war to remove Assad's regime as we did Saddam in Iraq. Are you prepared for that? Will you have emotional outrage for the children that will die then? How about the men and women in our armed forces that will die? Will you forget about those of us who go and become maimed psychologically and physically for your moral outrage? Do you cry in bed at night for the men and women still alive and hurting here in America after the horrors of war in Iraq and Afghanistan? Or is your faux emotional outrage only reserved for kids?

Yeah, it really is that simple.

6. and you're sure this will stop it, huh?

[Thinkingabout]

2. They like wars but at least the prez can include them agreeing and nit have it thrown in his face.

I do not like war and hate when our troops are injured or killed but our president needs to have Congress do their job.
