Why Syria Is worrying me

It's starting to look like Iraq revisited.

1:You got neocons wanting war there.
2:there was report saying that chemical attack was actully used by rebels with weapons bought from Saudu arabia.This opens up the
government is lying charge
3:Kerry's statement reminded some of powell.Already there had been accursations Kerry exaggerated the number of deaths to get public
support
4:There had been report there could be more subsabtal action than government is admitting to
5:Reports say most of the obama national security team wanted to go without congress
6:There were reports that say Obama Is prepared to go anyway If Congress votes no
7:The rebels aren't much different than assad

Obama Is forgetting he Is in white house for speaking out against Iraq.If we wanted someone to be a war monger wee would have voted
Hillary In 2008.

Obama may be saving the republican party and burying both the democratic party and american people In process.He Is allowing republicans to be seen as antiwar if there Is more subsantal action In Syria.especilly If most Democrats are seen as supporting war In Syria.That helps republicans In 2014 midterm election

Come 2016 You could have Hillary as nominee of democrats who Is seen as supporter for war In Syria.Meanwhile republicans could nominate someone who opposed military action In Syria.

Obama Is traveling down a terrable road and for what?Syria Is Iraq III.There Is no Immedate threat.And he's helping republicans out.

And just imagine the damage that can be done come january 2017 with a far right president In White house with republican congress.
