Obama steps up military aid to Syrian rebels
President Barack Obama's authorization of military aid to the Syrian rebels "dramatically" increases U.S. support for the opposition, the White House said Friday, while acknowledging that it will take time for the supplies to reach fighters struggling in their clashes with Syrian President Bashar Assad.

    Let's face it
    While President Obama take's a victory lap at ground zero,syrian folk's are dying, and nobody knows the gameplan in Libya. Let's face it, iraq,afghanistan,pakistan,egypt,syria, and iran are failures of Bush and Obama. I don't know what we are doing in afghanistan or iraq(bush) or libya Obama.

    Because he only wanted the position
    Not the responsibility. Cry me a river, gutless (so called leader) If in the private sector, he would have been fired in 90 day's. He is about as good as a leader, as his WRITTEN form to cut the spending. N O N E ????? (sorry to hit home) A LEADER IS WHAT WE NEED, Move right =, left, or get the h-ll out of the way. wish, dream, hope, thought,FELT, studied, should have, All words that get you NO WHERE.

    No, he would not have been fired.
    He would have fired McConnel, and Boehner and got something done. He would not have put up with what the right is pulling off for one second. Do you realize that almost everything Obama wants to do to bring this country out of this mess, most Republicans were for. They are doing everything they can to get Obama out of office, at the expense of America to protect the super rich that pay to get them elected. America is not that dunb, and Obama will be re-elected.

    Weak
    weak, weak. 0bama and the apology tour, having the chain put around his neck by the Saud, bowind and scraping before tyrants, broken and failing foreign policy, deliberate dismissal of American power; a moslem who responds to an unwelcome demand by any mere woman is universally seen as a weakling. Just having "the old woman of malice" making demands on Assad fortifies his determination to remain, consequences to his people unimportant in the least.

    Why are we getting involved in another country's
    problems? Haven't we done that enough already? Let those people rise up and overthrow the government if they feel they need to. Do it without the CIA and MI6 meddling in the affairs. That's who is really stirring all this up. How about American's go out and start protesting every day? They are arresting people in D.C. for protesting against Obama letting the banks off the hook. Where's the outcry for that? Obama will do the same thing all these other dictators do if he feels that he is loosing control.
