He might, but I highly doubt Republicans will.

Why would you turn a discussion about Obama's red line into anything about anyone else?

No other way you can think of to mount a rebuttal to the obvious?

We are already reading and seeing what type of people we'd be supporting by helping the rebels in Syria.....beheading people who don't convert to Islam in Christian villages?

Notice:

Do YOU consider Congress as part of the "administration" in office?

No....the "administration" is the Executive branch and the Congress is the Legislative branch.

Everyone already knows that the Legislative branch consists of the Senate and House of Representatives.....that wasn't what the debate is about.

Oh, clueless one, "administration" can be ambiguous. When people talk about the Lincoln administration, they are not distinguishing between the legislative and the executive branches. They are talking about the federal government as a whole. The same is true when people talk about the Wilson administration. When people talk about the FDR administration and the New Deal, they aren't distinguishing between FDR and the legislature, because the legislation passed at the time during a President's tenure, however supported by the sitting president or fought by the sitting president, is still attributed to that President's time in office.

You can specify that when you are talking about the Obama administration that you are talking only about the executive branch, but you cannot say that the word administration applies exclusively to the executive branch.

Lmfao! Maybe clueless people think the "Lincoln Administration" refers to the government as a whole, but not educated people who didn't flunk civics!

For goodness sakes, the recent movie Lincoln was all about Lincoln's struggle to get Congress to vote his way.

ESPECIALLY in recent times NO ONE considers the "Bush Administration" or " Obama Administration" includes Congress and the Supreme Court!

That's just hilarious!!!!

If Putin actually cared about the Syrian people, then why did he wait so, so long to tell Syria to hand over their chemical weapons. This has nothing to do with Putin convincing Obama with anything, Putin could have kicked back and not worried about it, except that he was worried that he would have to get involved if a US strike happened.

I'm glad that someone was considering that.
