I am unsold by the many times the actions of this administration do not line up with the words.

There is absolutely no assurance the end result of the so called measured, limited, response will not erupt into a much worse situation that will drag us into something unplanned and definitely unprepared.

There is nothing but political following being promoted by the daily circus of Kerry and Hagel and a General who has no choice but to nod when beckoned!!
They are glossing over the issue of just who it is constitutes the rebel forces.

The latest measures or 60 days plus 30 more if needed, no boots on the ground, etc is so very amateurish. Since when is there any reality in the weeks longs announcement of yup we are gonna do it....we'll let you know when we are coming. Then calling out 60 or 70 missles and we are done. Done with what? Just exactly what constitutes the mission and it's objectives? I appreciate the fact there is info we will never see as referred to by Kerry about the "closed sessions".

Can you imagine what Assaad and his regime are doing in preparation for the announced attack? What would you be doing if you knew you were going to be attacked and what you were going to be attacked with.

What ever happened to the critical element of surprise in a military operation?

We have turned war both the offense and defensive aspects into a politically driven, need for consensus decision making scenario. Two aspects that will only lead to failure.......politically driven and need for consensus. There is room for neither in a real war.

So I do not trust what is being presented. I happen to be a commitment/results person and expect one to do what they say they will do, when they said it would be done and who is responsible. I have no time or respect for people who use words instead of deeds. This administration has earned my distrust.

Based on the past experience with the current administration and the lack of openness about what it is they expect to do and the results obtained.....I remain adamantly opposed to any response in Syria. I do not want to see this country invest it's assets in a politically motivated "want". Only to listen, once again, to those in charge, spew whose fault it was if things do not go well.

NO THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
