Rand Paul's Rebuttal Speech

Rand Paul gave a rebuttal to President Obama's speech. I don't think it was the official Republican response. It was aired on Fox News but most are going to have to watch it on YouTube. That is a pity. It would be interesting to see how many Americans prefer Paul's message to Obama's.

"The question must be asked: would a U.S. bombing campaign make it more or less likely that [Syrian President Bashar] Assad loses control of the chemical weapons?" Paul said.
"Would a U.S. bombing campaign make it more or less likely that Assad attacks Israel with chemical weapons? Would a bombing campaign make it more or less likely that refugees stream into Jordan?" Paul said. "Would a bombing campaign in Syria make the region more or less stable?"
"Just about any bad outcome you can imagine is made more likely by U.S. involvement in the Syrian civil war."
