No, that's not right.

The two largest suppliers the U.S. buys oil from is:
1. Canada
2. Mexico

Its kinda the ultimate anti Obama statement to throw the American President under the bus and then embrace the Communist leader of Russia.. Astounding and pathetic as to where these righties will go in their endless pursuit of hate toward their duly elected President.

I don't think Al Qaeda makes up a large contingent of the rebel forces, the other choice is to allow Syria to destabilize contries like Jordan and Turkey and that's in their favor and Russia and Iran's interest.
How come places like Switzerland and Australia can go merrily about their business without involving themselves into all of this business?

They aren't out there arming their enemies.

This statement was hilarious you know. First you state that Iraq wasn't an issue with dems/liberals (which is not true, there were mass protest and even a lot of moderate conservatives were not for the Iraq invasion). Then you talk about the 2000 election....So you are saying that first the dems/liberals were mad about the 2000 election, then in 2003 the dems/liberals were still mad about 2000 but supported the Iraq invasion??? Weird. I don't understand your timeline there. I admit that liberals hated and many still hate Bush. Due to that they didn't like the 2000 election OR the invasion of Iraq.

This is the truth. Like I said earlier, Obama is a sly sort of fellow. He is really low key and gets what he wants, gives a little, then takes a lot and people don't even notice it. I also agree in regards to the far left. The liberal shows I listen to sometimes really put the hammer on Obama about a lot of things but then they just keep on supporting him. That is why it is hilarious IMO that so many people online, especially around here like to say that he is a "weak" leader. He is very strong, you just don't notice it because he doesn't act like a blowhard or a stereotypical bully. He is like an evil genius lol.
