I can't imagine Assad daring to do that gassing if HRC had been in the WH. And she NEVER would have put an idiot like Tillerson in the important Sec of State post.

I swear the next meeting Merkel has with Trump they're gonna swap places and see if he notices.

This horror happened because of the admin's statement backing off Assad. I hope they learned something about the price paid when they are unprepared. I doubt the lesson will stick.

The world, and true American progress, is suffering because Hillary is not the one sitting at the Resolute desk. We have to stay focused and turn this around in 2018 and beyond...

Clue: Clinton: "We cannot in one breath speak of protecting Syrian babies and in the next close America's doors to them"

Answer: Things that Democrats are capable of conceptualizing that Republicans cannot.

However, if your posture is the refugees should stay there you better damned well be prepared to do what is necessary to get rid of Assad and quick.

To me that is the bullshit...whine about babies dying, do nothing of substance to help them, then refuse refugees.

I have no problem if he refuses refugees as long as he's acting on an ongoing basis to give those refugees a reason to stay home.

Clearly he is not.

Millions of dollars spent on a light show is not a solution to the 1)foreign policy matter and 2) offers no relief to civilians who will continue to be bombed.

We are so dumbed down.

One has an expressly stated purpose with follow-up and competent advisors. The other one is just a flashy move to cover up the fact that your incompetent SoS gave Syria the go ahead to resume gassing their citizens.

We need to keep pointing this out until every news outlet and newspaper front page is repeating it.
