I'm getting pretty sick of the US constantly involving itself in the mess we call the Middle East. Enough already!!! Haven't we learned our lesson from Iraq and Afghanistan?

If the buffoons in the middle east can't learn to live together let's just stand back and let them kill each other until there's no one left, screw 'em. I say not one more drop of American blood and not one more US taxpayer $.

Or was that yesterday? God, it's so hard to keep up …

Can't defend your guy on this move can you so deflect instead.

I'm not sure where you are getting your information. However, I am a conservative and I don't believe in arming anyone, except myself. 500 million dollars would go a long way in paying for healthcare, right here at home. How many houses in foreclosure would it save? Bridges built? Computers for schools? I could go on.

But to arm a population of people, who will probably turn around, when they are done, and turn those arms on US Citizens, is down right deplorable.

Not too mention, according to liberals, you voted for Obummer for "Hope and Change." To get us out of wars in other countries and to put the money back to "our people." Doesn't look like he has done that, now has he?

When can we expect you to start trouncing Barack Obama like you've trounced George W. Bush for the past umpteen years? You never seem to get tired of bashing Bush, but your boy Barack is A-OK. He never gets anything wrong....it's the U.S. that has a problem....but Barack is not part of the boondoggle. Never!

Agree 100%. Let's just see if Congress approves it. If they are representing the citizens, they shouldn't. Most people oppose getting involved in another war, and this newest move sounds just like the start of one.

This move is indefensible, still doesn't mean making Ol' Mittens CinC would have been a wiser choice.

Not this RWNJ. I'm all for one group of crazy-azz Muslim nutjobs killing off another group of crazy-azz Muslim nutjobs. But we should stay out of orchestrating, let alone participating, in this. Just sell them some guns and ammo (or rocks and sticks) and let them get on their way.
