How stupid were we to elect and re-elect bozo Obama?
Assad backs the deal and the Syrian rebels don't !

"Obama's given America gay marriage and Obamacare and given the world an Islamist resurgence and a few laughs. Let Putin worry about the geopolitics for the next 3 years. It's safer."
Krauthammer believes that Russia is playing chess with a set of rank amateurs and saw a huge opening for themselves after Kerry’s comments this morning. For Russia, Krauthammer says, it means they get to keep Assad in power and maintain their Iran/Hezzbollah/Assad/Russian axis of power as well as prevent Jihadists in the Muslim countries like Chechnya from getting their hands on the chemical weapons. He calls it a win-win for Russia and says that Obama will accept this because it’s the only way he saves face.
Only an aggregate of deep thinkers like Trendaway, IBSynd...er OAB, and you others would buy into the "unintended off the cuff" boolsh*t. But, that's OK, because you guys have been whiplashed again. Syria MAY give up their chemical weapons (biological ones, too - perhaps) and we didn't have to fire a shot. Now, unfortunately for you whining bitches, none of your arguments have anywhere to go. Krap-hammer is right as far as chess vs checkers goes, he just got the players wrong. Typical teawipe silliness. All hail Joe Manchin!they're so used to eating dust they'll never notice the grit in their teeth
How does it feel to be left in the dust --- again? Originally Posted by Randy4Candy

If so, Putin probably believes that a U.S. attack would create a real risk to Assad, enough of a risk to make a settlement worthwhile even as the odds of an attack were decreasing. Putin probably believes (1) that Assad can continue to gain ground in the civil war without relying on chemical weapons (but with some such weapons held secretly in reserve in case his situation falls apart completely), but (2) that a U.S. attack might well reduce Assad’s crucial advantage in the air, disrupt his command-and-control operation, energize the rebels, and so forth.
And why would Obama accept Putin's offer ?http://www.powerlineblog.com/archive...-questions.php
It’s clear that Obama, sensing defeat of his resolution by Congress, sees the gambit as a way out... Given Obama’s dislike of using military force, it’s quite possible that he would have gone along with Putin’s gambit even if he were operating from a position of political strength.
