You can't dig a hole deep enough to keep your equipment and staff safe from our missiles in such a short time. Satellites and drones are keeping an eye and tracking all movement of all Assad military forces, 24/7. That's what we do. That's how we roll.
The question still remains. Why should we do anything at all about Syria? It absolutely is none of our business. The parties involved all pretty much hate the USA. The rebels have committed atrocities of their own. This is not our fight and certainly not worth 1 tax dollar to waste getting involved.

It's not about Syria and it's not about Assad and it's not about chemical weapons.
There's a bigger plan and Syria is just the next country in line.

We will invade no doubt. They will just set off more chemical weapons until we do.

Shouldn't the wanna-be president be speaking up and giving some input? The coward.
NO, she should absolutely not be putting in her two cents here. It is not appropriate; she may have differing opinions but doesn't want to make us look even more divided.

Hopefully conservatives have learned from past mistakes.

OP-What will be your take when most/all Dem members of the Senate vote to go into Syria? Will you decry them for making the same mistake as Bush?
And most Dems voted FOR Iraq too.

Why do you think that conservatives want war with Syria?

Why do you think that conservatives love war?

You should ask yourself these questions then come back and post something.

See, both your President and your Vice President publicly said that Bush had no authority to attack a nation without congressional approval. Then they got into office and attacked Libya. Without congressional approval.

And unlike Obama, Bush did get congressional approval for the attacks he made.

So sorry to inform you that your attempt to say conservatives are hypocrites is a failure. The hypocrites here are the Democrats.
What I don't get and correct me if I am wrong, but the main reason Bush sent troops to the Middle East was primarily because of WMDs. Now have any WMDS been found?

Syria did a tragic thing to its own people. Now it's okay to shoot them but when they use some type of chemical agent, now we have to step in? That makes no sense to me.

Default Why do Americans want the US to attack Syria?

I know many don't, but for those that do, what is your reason?

Is the reason good enough for you to put American lives at stake?
