I HONESTLY can see how you could feel that way...I really do. IF you looked at this as just another political exercise.

Difference, to me anyway, is we are talking about the country's foreign policy, and not an election. We are talking about a foreign policy and its author.

I did not start out bashing anyone on this thread and basically said I would back the President. But as everyone should be doing instead of listening to the political hacks I did some investigation, and would be glad to share links showing how the author of our policy is making stuff up about red lines, etc.

If our foreign policy is structured to ignore the killing of an american ambassador, try to camaflouge it when it happened, ignore the killing of men women and children for a number of years, ignore previous chemical weapons until now, and then stand up and be self righteous, I, as an american am embarassed.

And if you want this closed, then so much for any discussion of issues important to this country.....taking military action in the mideast is a bit more important than some of the things allowed for discussion.

What is more distressing is the taking of POLITICAL stances when discussing this. This is not about Dem versus Rep....not about the WH versus congress...not about Liberal versus conservative.....as a few keep trying to make it.
