Great thoughts except for one sticky little problem. Every time we remove an "evil dictator" what he's replaced with ends up to be worse.
Name one replaced dictator that's turned out well for us or for the people of said country?
Give it time, Look at France from 1789-1830 it was a mess. America from 1782-1789 was a mess.
Germany took 40 years to reunite after World War II, as was a mess from 1918-1933.
Britain had problems when it tried to get rid of its monarchy. These things need time to sort themselves out.
They call Italy (1945-1955) The Italian miracle for a reason, because massive Government change usually caused issues.
They still don't know if they were deliberately used or just in a building which got shelled. That only six people got sick seems to imply the later as a deliberate use generally would get more people. I, for one, am happy we have a president who waits for all the facts before rushing to war.

Obama is FOS, and his unwillingness to step in and stop the slaughter - without manufacturing "red lines" or some other nonsense - is proof of that. He did not need to wait for some arbitrary chemical weapons action to do something; haven't there been enough massacres to say enough?
And I really don't get the left and their pathetic hypocrisy and inconsistencies; the syrian people were practically begging the West and US to help them from the assad murder machine - the very liberals, academics and intellectual brothers of the left in the West - and you ignored their pleas. Just disgraceful, I'm glad the French didn't tell us to FO in 1776.
"As the crisis in Libya has unfolded, a number of commentators have criticized the Obama administration for the time it took to act. It has also been reprimanded for not taking the lead among the international community and for insisting, as the crisis intensified, that it would not act without the sanction of the United Nations Security Council."
"Most egregiously, Obama delayed any decision regarding Libya until Gaddafi was on the verge of crushing his opponents. Confusion as far as the eye can see."

I am not sure what kind of dimwits you might be used to dealing with on political forums, but I suggest you do not take me lightly again in the future.
Ugh, get real - he had to be dragged by the US public and the EU/NATO allies to do anything in Libya. He is as bad - if not worse - than Carter. I cannot believe that the US public voted this ******* in twice.
And yet we did. Wait until 2016. You're head will just repeatedly explode. Hahahahahaha.

Carter's failings led to over 30 years of conservative presidential victories, republican and democratic. I am very much looking forward to 2016, thank you.

Plus bin Laden was killed under Obama's watch. I'll bet your blood is boiling with that one, huh?

Use your heads, it does nothing for the Syrian gov't and Assad to attack their own people. But the FSA can attack Syrians and blame it on Assad. Don't buy into the lies. Think! You are being manipulated by media and war mongerers like McCain and Graham. They need to keep the money flowing into the military-corporate industrial complex. If we aren't in a continual state of war, people might start asking where all the money is going.
