Tale of Two Dictator Presidents - Obama and Assad

By Elizabeth Nelson

So now Obama is saying that he advanced Syria because "American interests were at Risk." If that were really the case, why didn't he get involved in this two-and-a-half-year war sooner? One has to ask, was there a risk to America and her people before Obama parked its ships off Syrian shores and threatened them, or did the threat only exist after, like after we tweaked Al Qaeda’s nose in Libya, causing them to retaliate? If you kick a dog, they will fight back, but can we blame them?

Is anyone buying Obama’s, “this will send a message to any country that wants to use WMD on their people.” Well, obviously the rebels, or whoever used the Sarin gas, weren't paying attention when Bush sent Saddam the same message, for using WMD, so how successful do you think this “non-War” effort will be? Not only does he not have a mission plan, we have people in the Senate, that are willing to vote “yes,” because, “if we don’t, it will make him look like a weak fool.” Since when is, “Presidential saving face” a military objective, or a reason to go to war? Oh wait; these are the same idiots that said, “we have to pass the law, to know what’s in it.” What was I thinking?”

What Commander-in-Chief warns the enemy,  “we’re coming, [hide all the weapons], but don’t worry, it’s going to be a small attack, it’ll be limited, so you should be able to endure it okay.”  However, in Contrast, take a look at what President Assad said about Obama and his retaliation warning, in an interview with CBS. “We are not social media government”
“[Kerry] presented his confidence and conviction, not evidence”
“American people don’t want the war”
“Expect everything”

Here is a tale of two Presidents. One Administration, “expect a small, pinprick, limited attack.” Assad, “Expect the unexpected, but expect everything, it’s all on the table, I don’t control terrorists and I don't know what they have in their possession.”
“You are going to pay the price.”

Yet, Obama wants to rush over there, and help Al Qaeda take control of Syria, kicking an angry dog in the process? Does this make sense to any of you? Send Humanitarian Aid, that's more than he did for our men in Benghazi, when Al Qaeda was slaughtering them.
