    Has nothing to do with democrats or republicans as there's not even a dime's worth of difference between them.

    In order to placate a bully and avoid nuclear Armageddon, the Syrians are willing to surrender their inventory of chemical weapons. It is the Syrians and Russians who are the Masters.

    And, my guess, according to the train of "thinking" exhibited by previous US regimes, is that nothing will ever be enough.
    Anyone remember how the Libyans surrendered their chemical weapons only to have the USA & HATO rip them apart with bombs & cutthroat terrorists?

    there is no deal.

    not yet.

    if Syria is going to sign the chemical weapons treaty and have the UN oversee the removal of their weapons, that's fine.

    And you are an extremist. I at least value American values and call for sensible policy to our economy.

    Yup. That is correct. Hence why he dodged putting proof up when called out for saying 'Assad denied having them'.

    He didn't.

    He just made that bit up.

    'American values' though, apparently...

    It's because of Putin, the only leader who knows WTF he's up to in the region. We either (*)(*)(*)(*) them off for no real political effect or replace a bad but friendly regime with a terrorist state. Russia may be less democratic, but they do have the virtue of getting what they actually want. We are "nice" and "help people" and end up with a situation worse than what we started with.

    What you call sensible I call unconstitutional. As for what constitutes extremism, well, I just see statists throwing that term around to attack and villify those who disagree with them and their expressed socialist agenda.

    The Russians said they will protect the sovereignty of Syria. Whereas the USA/Europeans are in league with the Israelis and their Saudi counterparts to push Russia past the brink of nuclear war.

    They want Russia to chicken out, and they are willing to let most Americans suffer and die from it, just so the arrogant war crazies can satisfy their insane lusts.

    So, we, stupid, deluded, duped, drunken, collectively insane US people get to enjoy the ride we have earned for ourselves if Russia does not back down or kowtow to our masters in DC, Tel Aviv, & Mecca.

    What is another lie? The question to you is this- did Assad claim that he does not posses chemical weapons or did he state that he did not order their use? I believe that he stated the latter and if that is correct then you sir are the liar

    Yes yes yes we all know your "idea" of "unconstitutional". You think we should still be living with the same 10 amendments from 200 years ago, think we should cut taxes even more for rich people only, think we are a christian nation, lets see oh yes also believe in the absurd notion (and proven false) of federal nullification and a warped version of "states rights".

    What Montoya means is that we live in a Communist dictatorship, and Durandal should be happily worshipping at the shrine of Lincolnesque regimes ever after.

    I don't believe that we are a Christian nation and am still.not sure what is meant by "American values" and question why we think we need to export and impose them on any other nation.

    He claimed he didn't use chemical weapons, a lie, and alluded to not having them at all. Which is another lie.
