The thread title says it all. Liberals were screaming from the rooftops to let Obama know that bombing Syria was not an acceptable option. Afterall, they say, what business do we have in Syria???

But what about all those countries that Barack Obama has dropped bombs on from invisible drones in the sky? What difference does it make if the bombs are dropped from a DRONE or lobbed from a NAVAL SHIP???

You ask what business do we have in Syria? Well, what business do we have in Yemen...Pakistan...Somalia...and elswhere?????

Liberal Hypocrisy™ on display, front and center, for all to see, and without an ounce of shame or embarassment.

Con stupidity is displaying the fact that they do not understand that not people can be lumped together using labels, maybe all cons think alike (yeah right), but Liberals are made up of many different view points. The proof is that more than a few Liberals, including myself, supported the Presidents plan to get Assads attention, which by the way means the OP is based on the mistaken idea that what was posted was based on any real facts.

That business would, of course, be our war against Al Qaida and allied groups, which was passed by congress and signed by GWB back in 2001.

Of course, there are quite a few liberals who also oppose this because DRONEZ!!! Personally, I'm more interested in hearing if they're effective rather than screeching about a weapons/surveillance platform.

So, do you support Obama's drone wars, or not? Do you support a military strike on Syria, or not? Don't skirt the question. Answer it without the hyperbole. If you can, that is.

So now we blame GWB for Obama's foreign policy? Is that where you're going with this? That GWB used drones occasionally, so Obama is free and clear from the liberal standpoint?

I have answered both questions long ago and many times, strange You would not know my stand.
Read slowly and let it sink in this time.
Do I support the military using an unmanned drone to take away the risks to pilots in airplanes, apsolutly. Do you prefer to put peoples lives at risk when it is not required, why do you hate pilots?

I support a military stike on Syria if they do not comply with the plan for them to turn over their chemical weapons, is your plan to stomp your feet and say No Fair!

His plan is to only support it if a republican is in office.

Again, you deflect. This is NOT about RISK to pilots or troops on the ground. This is about STRIKING countries with bombs that we **purportedly** don't have any "business" striking according to the liberal viewpoint. What business do we have in Yemen...Pakistan....Somalia...and beyond where we are engaging in strikes on a regular basis but which liberals....including you....refuse to raise your voice over. We heard the Syria uproar....where is the uproar over drone usage?

I should have known that you could not answer the question forthrightly. Par for the course Casper.
