Obama
is now going to use Syria's agreement to remove chemical weapons to get
Congressional approval for him to bomb Syria if he deems it necessary
should he determine that diplomacy has failed. Bush took us to war in
Iraq with the same kind of trickery he used to get approval for
launching a war against Iraq.
No legislation targeting Syria for bombing under any circumstances should be considered.
We need to ask why we can't trust these so-called "liberal" members of
the U.S. Senate to stand up against bombing Syria. If we can't trust
these politicians when it comes to peace or war what can we trust them
to do?
* Both Massachusetts senators, Elizabeth Warren and Ed Markey
* Both Oregon senators, Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley
* Both Colorado senators, Mark Udall and Michael Bennet
* Both Washington senators, Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell
* Ohio senator Sherrod Brown
* Wisconsin senator Tammy Baldwin
* Rhode Island senator Sheldon Whitehouse
* Hawaii senator Mazie Hirono
* Minnesota senator Amy Klobuchar
We need to look at Representative Keith Ellison in the U.S. House who is the Co-Chair of
the so-called Congressional Progressive Caucus who is supporting bombing
Syria... how "progressive" can anyone be who supports bombing Syria?
