He's asking congress because there's much more at stake than just lobbing a few missliles at some concrete. Not to deflect praise or blame. If you say how the heads of the various political factions like Cantor and Boehner came out of the confidential intelligence briefings and made statements of immediate support, you'd realize this.
Want to know the game plan after the lobbing of a few missles. Haven't heard it, yet or whether there is even a game plan. I don't care what Cantor has to say about anything.
1. What happens if Assad is dead?
2. What happens if Assad is still alive?
3. What happens if someone attacks Israel in retaliation?
4. Who exactly are we arming in the resistance?
5. What is the expected reaction from Russia, China and Iran if we do attack and are all of those actions covered in some plan?
"Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Martin Dempsey couldn’t answer what exactly the U.S. was seeking in Syria Tuesday during questioning from Sen. Bob Corker (R., Tenn.) about a resolution authorizing military action there."
"We don’t believe we are going to war in the classic sense of taking American troops and America to war… It’s limited.” The answer hardly satisfied Mr. Paul. “By doing so you announce in advance that your goal is not winning,” he told the secretary of state. “I think the last 50 years of secretaries of defense would say if your goal is not to win, then you shouldn’t be involved.” After the heated exchange, Mr. Kerry turned Gen. Dempsey. “General, do you want to speak to that, alter that?” he asked. Gen. Dempsey quickly replied, “No, not really, secretary. Thank you for offering.”
because somebody is very interested in reducing the world's population. And if China will to fight-that he will perform these tasks. Just, the Iranian leader is not aware that feeds the who in the future can devour his country. China near Iran. The United States far. But he sees a threat in the United States. Or he thinks that China will forever be at peace with Iran? So it is the proof that the world war in the middle East not need U.S. or Iran. A third side( not even China). Everyone knows this side... So in developed countries and advocated gay, depression, loans,abortion( cause of too much sex ) and in totalitarian - idolatry, nationalism, spectacle, paedophilia,agression( cause too less sex), communism( the faceless mass )- to reduce the population and take control of it. But a lot of resources on the planet is enough for all. The question is that some countries do not use their advantages-therefore, there is war and conflict.
Not really. Populations around the world are imploding.
"In Italy, there are more deaths than births every year. In Japan, people buy more adult diapers than diapers for babies. China’s population will get very old and then rapidly contract. By 2050, one out of every 4 of its citizens will be over the age of 65. The United Nations projects that by the year 2100, Poland will have lost one-quarter of its population. Thirty years ago, Iran’s fertility rate was 6.5. Two generations later it has rapidly declined to 1.88. Around the world populations are contracting. The US would be on the verge of shrinking, too, if it wasn’t for Hispanic immigrants. But, their fertility patterns become more like the US native population after the first generation arrives. Governments around the world have tried some very interesting incentives to get people to have more children but most have been unsuccessful. People just don’t want more kids and the more education they have, the less likely they are to have them."

Except the Muslims whose birth rates are extremely high.
The book "The Population Bomb" did get the emigration from the regions with sky high birth rates into areas with lower birth rates right.
War? It seems like only RWNJ's are declaring war. I am for a limited engagement to do the maximum possible damage to the Assad regime, to indicate that chemical weapons are in-no-way acceptable.
Stop being a partisan hack. Think for yourself.
First, it is your Affirmative Action Community Organizer that wants this war.
Second, it was the al Qaeda terrorists your buddy Obama wants to "pal around with" that used the Sarin gas, not Assad.
Democrats are the biggest supporters of international terrorism on the planet, thanks to Obama.
Yes it was partisan but that doesn't mean they were not right in their protests, now we have a reversal in both parties for the most part. Give credit to those who are consistent and vote their conscience, few and far between.
Libya has almost entirely stopped producing oil as the government loses control of much of the country to militia fighters.
Mutinying security men have taken over oil ports on the Mediterranean and are seeking to sell crude oil on the black market.
Diplomats have come under attack in Tripoli with the EU ambassador’s convoy ambushed outside the Corinthia hotel on the waterfront. A bomb also wrecked the French embassy.
One of the many failings of the post-Gaddafi government is its inability to revive the moribund economy. Libya is wholly dependent on its oil and gas revenues and without these may not be able to pay its civil servants.
