Are facts important, or just spewing your BS agenda?
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.
Oh, I am taking you very lightly. Of course he was criticized. That's what presidents receive: criticism. Look at Bush, and look at Obama. They are receiving it no matter what they do. He was criticized for not going in, then he was criticized for going in, then we was criticized for going too slowly, he was criticized for not putting boots on the ground. He is criticized for using drones in Pakistan, he is criticized for expanding the Afghan campaing. He is criticized for sending special forces into Congo. You can't avoid criticism. It is what it is, but the point is that he went in, and got the job done with absolute minimum cost and casualties. My comments answer the original comment about him being too weak to go in. He went in, and now you whine about him being criticized by Al Jazeera. Are you kidding me? They make a career out of criticizing the United States.
As for Syria, Obama will be criticized if he does something about it, and he will be criticized of he does't. You can count on it. Bush got hammered for going into Iraq, and he would have been hammered if he hadn't. It's the nature of the beast, and as long as you do not understand that, you will be taken lightly.
US has said that would be a game changes. We shall see if US takes action
How about just let them duke it out and we can worry about more important problems here at home like long lines at Chipotle and low battery life on iPhones.
I'm guessing with your juvenile comments you might be 14.
No, I'm 45. But you know deep down no matter what Obama does you will be petulant, sarcastic, conspiracy minded, and generally bitchy.
My personal opinion is more isolationist. I love all people but it is up to Syria to solve Syria's current crisis. And then the one after that, etc etc. Now if they (Syria) attack the USA or any other country that is a different matter.

And I have zero respect for liars like you, who changed the goalposts after being exposed. You claimed he did not hesitate - and he did - and now you are whining that he was only "criticized" like "every other president." You're full of it, and have zero credibility. Your future posts will be ignored.

You're 45 like I'm 167. You "love all people but its up to syria to solve their problems." That's hilarious, how come its no problem for russia, iran and hezbollah - all outsiders - to get involved, but not the US? Anti-American agenda, have we? Yet another fly-by-nighting fraud passing through the forums...
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.
The bottom line with the "red line" statement is that it was just like those companies that advertise "if it snows on the 4th of july your purchase will be free" banking on the idea that it won't happen so they'll never have to back it up.
Same thing here. Obama figured that the Syrian government would never be so crazy to actually use chemicals so he threw down his bet and the dice came up craps.
I guess he lost that bet. Now, he can choose another number and double down or he can walk away and wait for a new shooter.

If Syria's WMD get into the hands of al qaeda, that becomes YOUR crisis
