Has anyone made the point that we would not be in this mess had GWB still been president? First, GWB isn’t stupid enough to taunt a psychopath, but if GWB drew a “red line,” Assad would not have crossed it. And, if GWB had drawn a red line he would have first made sure he had international support and then secured the support of the congress. He would have never talked about an “unbelievably small” response. In fact it would have been the exact opposite. GWB would have put the fear of a real God into Assad. Assad would never have crossed the line and the Russians would have made sure he didn’t.
But hey, it’s amateur hour in congress and the White House. Domestically, the administration mired in scandal after scandal. In fact, they are mired in so many scandals they would have brought down any administration not raised on affirmative action do-overs and a lapdog slavish media. Foreign affairs are a disaster under this naked emperor. But Putin doesn't do, do-overs. Now His Unbelievably Smallness wants to take us to war for no other reason than to save face or avoid war by turning US national interests over to the Russians and the UN.
Here’s a hint for the congress. Would you turn the keys of your classic Ferrari over to a clueless idiot wearing nothing but black socks and shoes?
But there is hope. Two arrogant bastards were recalled in

Thank you, Col. Lex, for the truth and the articulate, and "Ted Nugent-ish" delivery of it.
