It's all about making the Dems look better than the Repubs.
It's one upmanship.

And if it means starting WWIII then so be it because Obama has to come out the winner no matter what.

That's the most alarming thing with Obama. His primary concern is himself no matter what the consequences are.

So she is providing her approval, while telling Obama not to seek her approval?

This is the epitome of an ignorant partisan hack. We have members of congress telling Obama to ignore congress.

I don't know, but he seems to do it on a pretty regular basis. Perhaps only on the nut job branch of the gop this time.

Pretty much. They did it with Libya. He just wants to make sure there will be no impeachment.
He also had a phone conversation with Boehner but no details have come out.

Precisely .... but it seems that no matter how true and obvious, joe public remain psychologically entrapped by this left-right game that the Dems and Rupubs continue to play on the American Sheeple.

Will the gullible and naive public ever stop falling for this game of monty, and simply come to the rational realization that war is not good, no matter who proposes it and who opposes it? Apparently not. Because the opposition to war seems to have nothing whatsoever to do with principles of peace, or even the immorality of war, with all of it's negative consequences in the loss of blood and treasure ... no, public opposition to war seems to reside entirely in which political football team they choose to route for.

This makes it very easy for the criminals who are running this scam .... all they need to do is to just switch political leadership every few years .... continue to march down the same path, while spewing a slightly altered brand of rhetoric and lies .... no problem. When the lefties put up too much of a fuss about republican led militarism, just let them "vote in" the peace loving Democrats ... then the militarism can continue because now, war=peace. When that stops working to the satisfaction of the overlords, another switch will take place. We're like a nation of drooling low grade morons falling for the same scam, over and over.

Thats pretty much why I have no respect for Obama.. Candidate Obama, said all the right things, but it defied common sense..

And here we are, now President Obama, defying everything he said during the campaign..
