The Senate just approved a vote to go to Syria.

No one in the white house has a clue what happen in Benghazi, but they all knew exactly what happen in Syria and who done it within 24 hours.

Amazing, good stuff America.

Awesome.

Once they attack Syria then Iran can be free to engage because Wikipedia tells me that Syria and Iran are allies...

This says it all.

Seriously.

Did we honestly expect any different ?!

Of course the vote will be "yea"... these guys want to continue to see their paychecks.

The Rothchilds won't sign the paycheck of anyone who votes "no".

Bombs make the world a safer place apparently. Caught the tail end and I find it kind of stunning how arrogant we are about our place in the world.

This stinks and it stinks badly. There was a time when it took skill for a politician to flatly ignore the Will of the People and sell a bogus war. Now days the freaking politicians do not even bother hiding their blatant manipulations of The People.

It makes me very sad that there is no longer anything that can be done to cage our dogs. The bastards have run as amok as a wolf pack in a cattle yard.

Seriously just WTF can any of us really do besides whine here?

At this point we can expect it go to through with next weeks vote.

Kerry says during the - LIVE on C-SPAN: House Hearing on Military Force in Syria- " the world expects of us". I guess the world expects Team America huh?

Just saw this in the headlines on a news site. You beat me to it.
Just in time for tonight's New Moon and Rosh Hashana.
People have been saying today would be the day.

ETA: You think they'll wait for a full Senate vote next week, or start things tonight?

Wasnt part of the whole "Obama chope" wave based on the world expecting us to go around bombing people?

I thought we didnt like that the world expected us to act in this way?

Kerry's proud of it now?

Meanwhile, John McCain is so happy, he is in the toilet masturbating in joy over the coming mega bruha with the russkies. The man still thinks it is the 60s around him.

I do not think today will be the day. The Rabid Dogs will take this to the full Senate in an attempt to prove to the average, mindless, Honey Boo Boo Watching Americans that will somehow believe that this is the Will of the People.

Watching those hearings brought a whole new meaning to insane.

He was playing Video poker and "Winning thousands of dollars". All while telling Americans that the conflict will go "Regional" as the entire Middle East is a problem.

Makes me sick.

Fox News is reporting Congressional panel approves of using force in Syria.

Effing repeat of Afghanistan in the 80s that created this entire cluster F.

Dammit.

Stallone says there's a new Rambo in the works.

Gets sent to Syria to help the rebels oust Assad?

Then tens year later we can write off the new liberated Syria as a rogue nation run by extremists and invade it for 'merica.

Actually he said he lost that game and lost thousands of dollars....... but he said earlier today he didn't support Obama on this yet he voted yes!?

Afghanistan broke Russia's financial back. It is breaking the USA's and the funny part? Unlike Afghanistan It is quite likely Syria and it's allies may actually shoot back with something beside IED's and AK's.

Going to Syria is not like going to be like any of our previous experiences in the Middle East.

Doh! You are correct. Sorry I am quite tired and somewhat dyslexic in thoughts and type as a result.
