Ohhhh Nooooo. The RED LINE !. But there is still the blue line, the yellow line and green line. After that the purple and pink and white lines.

I don´t believe a thing our government tells us. I heard somewhere else it was the rebels (ie the ones Obama is backing) that deployed the chemicals. So that would be the Obama using chemical weapons, indirectly.

Besides, there are no chemical weapons in the middle east... Bush lied about that so we know their cannot be chemical weapons there.

Obama is looking for an excuse to oust Assad. He will do anything to get the Islamic rebels installed to power.

Is it coincidence that this story breaks the evening that Dear Behind Leader departs for Israel, Palestine & Jordan? Obama can plead ignorance or use diplomatic courtesy to avoid the issue. Obama can postpone a response for 6 days, and by then the WMD story is old news.

Or, Obama can blame the Republicans and their defense cuts for not being able to respond."Our aircraft carriers have maxed out their fuel budgets, and must remain in port until GOP comes to it senses."

Or, he can tell us that the FBI will investigate, just like Benghazi. But no matter what, the Repubs should not urge military air strikes. Let Obama ask for authorization and explain why it is in our Interest to hasten a radical Islamist takeover of Syria,

This is a total pantload. Where are they getting their intelligence? From the rebel leaders and a Reuters photographer who was in the hospital where the victims were treated. A medic on the ground in Aleppo reported these people were overcome by pesticides, not chemical weapons. They smelled pungent odors, chemical weapons are most often odorless. This is an attempt by the new leaders of the opposition to force the West to arm them. It´s no coincidence the opposition just named a prime minister wholly owned by the Brothers. The UK and France are looking for any pretense to send arms to the rebels.

This story has been around for months. It is an excuse. obama wants another muslim brotherhood running Syria.

I want to know where these chemical weapons came from and which side deployed them. If Obama wants to go to war, let him make the case to the People. Bush was attacked in the press for claiming that Iraq had purchased yellow cake. When American troops arrived in Iraq, they found something like 2000 tons of yellow cake or the equivalent of 10 tractor trailer trucks.

Poster #1. It doesn´t matter what color the "line" is. 0bama will still have a "yellow" streak when dealing with "his Muslim faith" friends.

This one is lose-lose for us. Stay out and let Putin deal with it.

It´s classified, so of course run right to the microphones.

The only thing that is more phony, it´s the people who decide what´s classified.

Oliver North was on Hannity tonite and insisted that the videos coming from those hospitals showed no signs of people recovering from chemical weapons attack...and he´s had first-hand experience.
I wish Hannity had let him talk more extensively, but Sean kept trying to make a point about Obama´s cowardly foreign policy. Yes. We all know how he operates by now, but I wanted to know more about what North believed was really going on over there.

Who is Assad fighting? Where are the pictures of the 70,000 alleged deaths? Where is the UN on this?...they usually don´t pass up an opportunity to make money on civil conflict.
This whole things stinks like rotten eggs.

You mean banning chemical weapons didn´t stop criminals from using them?

Cop a clue, hag.

He claims he used to make white lines disappear up his nose in college. He´ll have no trouble getting rid of a couple red lines in Syria and Iran.
Whatta complete joke!? But he must provide the bad guys with a few chuckles with his empty blustering... You know the Chinese and the Iranians read him like a book. And Syria ignores him.
´´Hey, hey, I´m really serious about this!´´
Yea right, Barry.

Nobody really knows what to do to solve this situation so they have to make a super villain out of Assad to justify a NATO attack on him.People should know by now that anything Obama is for,you should instinctively be against it.

Obama probably figured Assad would quietly give up power after seeing Mubarak and Gadaffi taken down and it didn´t happen.Assad decided to stay and fight and now Obama´s stuck and is working NATO to do his dirty work.


Sen.Rubio is all on baord for these so called rebels just like he was on board for getting rid of Gadaffi.

I´m sorry but I´m leery of Rubio and Paul as presidential candidates if it comes down to it.

Do Obama´s plans include keeping U.S. troops tied up overseas?

Watch. I can guarantee you that Barry´s purported red line will actually turn out to be a white line.

Let the UN handle this. Muslims killing Muslims. Should we care?

Yes . . . but we still must wait for the "double dog dare ya".

You´d think after the ass-whippin Senator Frankenstein took on the weapons ban that she´d be embarrassed to open her mouth for awhile.

Of course, I thought the same thing when Hillary Clinton was utterly humiliated by the philandering that "Horn Dog" engaged in with a young female intern in the oval office.

I guess not. Shame is not in the dictionary used by democrat women.

Was channel surfing about an hour ago and not paying that close attention.

CNN hostette asks an Israel spokesman.......in a really snarky tone....

What is Israel going to do about it if Syria used chemical weapons.

Nice way to pass the buck. Now it´s Israel´s duty to deal with oru muslim´s issue with Assad.

Deja vu all over again. Building a justification for war. One sometimes wonders whether the Iraqi people might now be overthrowing Saddam Hussein as well, if we had just resisted our urges to nation build. Hindsight, a wonderful thing. Also known as learning from history.

But Syria? As near as I can tell, it is one group of savages fighting against another group of savages. How to pick a side? Why do we care?

And then there is Obama. Assad had better watch out for that Red Line. Barack might give a very stern speech. He might even scowl. Oh no!

10 years ago didn´t we see a caravan of trucks leaving Iraq and heading for Syria - filled with CHEMICAL WEAPONS!!!!??
....that the Left refused to accept.

Oh goody. An excuse for the neocons to drum up another war. Good luck. Near 60% think the Iraq war was a mistake. I´m thinking there is 20% support for war in Syria, and ONLY if you oversample the Weekly Standard in the poll

Rogers, you are being played as a SAP. First get evidence that a weapon of mass destruction was used (keep in mind you can kill one person easily with the chemicals in your bathroom). Then make sure who used the weapon. Until you know all that, keep your mouth shut.

#22, I always thought that Bush should have used that video. But with the idiot elitist Rove advising him, he chose to say nothing and take the abuse from the left.

Feinstein owes her Senate career to Dan White´s shooting of George Moscone and Harvey Milk. She´s trying to change the subject.

What a country. The ´60s masterpiece, California, has become the haven for losers.

right #3, #6, #21. Bamboozler´s Arab Spring was cake in Libya and Egypt but now has hit an impasse/stalemate as Assad is no pushover. The admin hinted at the red line of Assad use of chemical weapons a long time ago, probably hoping they would, as justification to ramp up U.S. involvement. NO dice-just a fantasy. So now DC commies are pulling the slot machine handle again trying to get triple fruit for keys to the Syrian kingdom. In the meantime, they use Feinstein in a repeat of the Rice/Benghazi role modus to submit an idea w/out the White House committing to it. Sooo predictable.

It´s obvious bamboozler Inc feel they need Syria(to turn Muslim Brotherhood) in a kind of coming axis against Israel and their objectives are not being met. That´s just great! They know they need a big stick to use against Israel and are using the outcome of the 1960´s Six Day War as a model for what it will take.

It´s amazing what time does to the democrat mind, ´change´. We were told by democrats Bush lied and there were no weapons of mass destruction and Bush wanted a revenge war and oil for his cronies. Now 5 years later there are WMDs and the left wants a war. Liars!
I say let them duke it out it´s on muslims killing muslims in their country.
Obama left town and can´t be reached unless Morgan Freeman calls. Jay Carney will tell us the president will be home soon to move the red line a little further for some breathing room. Maybe a WH party with celebrities or a golf outing to sooth his brilliant mind.

Re: #14 - as I once posted here about Qaddafi, a teeny part of me is rooting for Assad. And mainly out of opposition to Obama.

Time for Feinstein to draft up a really, really tough chemical weapons ban, especially the scary "assault" weapon chemicals.

If the liar Feinstein said it, it´s a Lie.

Did you see it Implode Feinstein?

/implode implode implode

All they do is "talk" at tax payers´ expense. Highly classified, my arse!! As classified as Bengazhi reports?????

Feinstein`s just mad because Assad didn`t use them on the Israeli`s........../sss

Another Gulf of Tonkin incident? In 1964 LBJ ordered attacks on North Vietnam because he said they had attacked our destroyers in the Gulf of Tonkin. Only they hadn´t, it was just an excuse to attack North Vietnam. That led to our invasion of South Korea at Danang and the Vietnamese war.

We´ve been chomping at the bit to attack Syria and Assad. Assad knows that. He knew the use of WMD would trigger that attack. Why would he use insignificant amounts of WMD . . . just enough to trigger a US attack? Does Assad have a death wish? Would the Musbro rebels fighting Assad stoop to such levels to get the US involved? Which makes more sense?

Sure smells like Tonkin to me.

Now does Feinstein actually know what a chemical weapon is? Seriously, she doesn´t appear to know much about other types of weapons. Just asking.... LOL!

#22 & #25 you are so right on!!!!

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I always figured that Saddam shipped all those pesky ol´ chemical weapons over to Syria for "safe keeping" 10 or 12 years ago.

No doubt Assad noticed they were getting close to their "use by" date.

Diane, Why don´t you just get Barry to declare Syria a "Chemical Weapons Free Zone"?

Problem solved!

Looks like deja vu all over again.

Spot on, #39. Assad´s about to get the ´Gaddafhi treatment´

Barry´s "Qaddafi" treatment my result in his reaping what he has sown at the hands of those next in line for the treatment.
