BREAKING: White House to Announce It?s Sending U.S. Special Forces to Syria | Mediaite

Obama in 2013: ?I Will Not Put American Boots on the Ground in Syria? | Mediaite

He is allowed to flip. He is a politician.

He is allowed to lie, he is a politician.

I'm sure the resident Obama supporters will have the same attitude towards war and troops that they had for W ? Heck the same attitude towards telling the truth .

Should have put in a no-fly three years ago. I suppose it's too late for that now.

 

I hate this.

Maybe we should out source mid east security to the Russians

Same here.

 

I will share a quote that I recently read. Sums up my feelings very well on the subject of war.

 

"I wonder how to stay calm with so much beauty at stake, being scorched from my line of sight as trees fall and sacred places are ground to dust. I find it insufferable to bear silent witness to the flesh and bone devastation of war, and bitterly painful to be cast sometimes as a traitor to the homeland I love, simply because I raise questions. I find myself in a strange niche, reviled by some compatriots because I can't praise war as the best answer, and reviled everywhere else because my nation does."

Maybe we should out source mid east security to the Russians

 

Isn't that what we've been doing?

 

I'd be laughing at Putin's assertions that he's fighting against ISIS if they weren't so obviously ludicrous. Maybe this is what needed to be done since Putin will bomb everything he can right up until the moment there's an American force standing in place.

That's my biggest worry about putting "Boots on the ground", that Russia would bomb anything anywhere and I could see our Soldiers put in some bad positions.

The president now appears ready to put our soldiers at risk to stamp out this threat from ISIS, but simply put, President Obama isn't mentally prepared for the storm coming his way if anyone is killed by a Russian bomber.

 

I don't think any of us is, really..

I agree and politically if something like that were to happen, it could crush any chance a democrat has of winning the Presidency next year.

He is allowed to flip. He is a politician.

But, don't you agree that we need boots on the ground? I don't care if any politician flip flops as long as they flop in the right direction.

 

As you may know, I have said many times on here that we should be in Syria, and I'm disappointed in the West screwing over Ukraine.

I think Obama is a fool for not being there sooner and doing more in other ME countries.

 

But our out of touch Pres considered ISIS a JV team. Im sure he knew better but just ANOTHER LIE by the DEMS to make people think all is great and no concern.

 

Obama should be impeached for being such a weak leader.

And that my friends sums up what is wrong with this country in one sentence.

 

It isn't about doing what is right for the nation, it is about winning elections and keeping power.

Well some would look at it as being a bad decision and a tragedy would just solidify their opinion on that matter.

 

As for your last sentence, Politicians make decisions everyday based on what will keep them in power and not necessarily what's best for the country. Why shouldn't they be judged the same way?
