Unbelievable: Boehner Supports Syria Strike


Unbelievable!

John Boehner, the Republican Leader of the United States House of Representatives supports Obama's military intervention in Syria. The world views Obama as a naive and weak amateur, yet perma-tan John comes to his rescue! 

It’s the old canard. Trump up some false catastrophe -- then lie, obfuscate, intimidate, and malign. All the while a complicit mainstream media reports and editorializes the validity of your scam. But, you would not expect the Republican Party leadership to participate in this lie.

US foreign policy today is a farce, conducted as a comedy of errors: Obama, the reluctant warrior, morphing into George W. Bush, and seeking approval for a coalition of the willing, only to find his followers not there. 

Unbelievable!!

Never mind that the world, except for France, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, The Muslim Brotherhood, and al Qaeda, is opposed to intervention in Syria's civil war.

Never mind that it is yet to be proven that Assad ordered the chemical attack.

Never mind that this could be another ploy by Islamic rebels to get the US involved.

Never mind that the US has no national interest in Syria.

Never mind that the Syrian civil war does not threaten our national security, but invention would threaten the security of our allies in the region.

Never mind that Syria has neither threatened the US nor attacked our embassies and consulates.

Never mind that Obama and the RINOs want to militarily support the people who a year ago attacked United States sovereignty, e.g., Benghazi, Egypt under the Muslim Brotherhood, and Yemen.

Never mind that Obama has not demonstrated in 5 years as President, and in his life for that matter, any ability to lead a country in military action, much less war.

Never mind that every military undertaking conducted by the Obama Administration has failed such as the surge in Afghanistan, Libya, and Benghazi.

Never mind that that most of the world believes the word of a former Russian KGB agent over that of the President and Secretary of State of the United States of America.

And, never mind that his diplomatic blunders have caused world leaders to recoil at his presence. 

In consideration of all of the above, instead of exercising leadership, and giving voice to 80% of the American public who believe the US should not get involved militarily in Syria, the Republican leadership of the House, and the unremitting interventionists John McCain and Lindsay Graham in the Senate, provide the most divisive and corrupt President in American history cover.

Unbelievable!!!
