What honor is there to be had in helping Al-Qaeda takeover Syria? We have no real friends in the Middle East. The Jews and Arabs are like parasites sucking away at the might of the United States.
Can you explain to me how Israel is sucking power?
As for our elected officials. Look WE really need to start pushing these guys. Its our job to do so. There is not ONE district in this nation that has a majority support for any military action. Therefor any elected official who votes Yay is going against their constituents. This entire even is just another example of how our politicians have gotten into this role of "let me make the call bc Im smarter than you". I would say (with confidence) a very low percentage of those who have participated in this thread have even called their reps. We need to learn how to stop sitting back and letting our Bungholes get shafted.
Again, Obama has an agenda and it doesn't favor your children's futures. Under HIS leadership, well lack of, we have been spit on and talked down to like never before in recent history. And even those who did, we answered with a "how ya like me now"
This nation needs a reboot, and that starts with US not DC. Again, this is all our fault, don't blame some politician.
