Will NO ONE speak for the American people?

  So according to Eleanor Holmes Norton, this "war" (scare quotes included by John Kerry) which isn't a "war" is only being entertained to prop up the reputation of the pompous FOTUS (Fabulist of the United States).
  From Newsbusters, we quote Norton:
HOLMES NORTON: Oh, and I’d like to say, Bill, that if he [Obama] gets saved at all, I think it’ll be because, it’ll be because of loyalty of Democrats. They just don’t want to see him shamed and humiliated on the national stage.
PRESS: Yeah, right.
HOLMES NORTON: At the, at the moment, that’s the only reason I would vote for it if I could vote on it.
  So let's get this straight.
  These principled peaceniks are going to bomb another country--for the children--to save the reputation of the FOTUS from being "shamed and humiliated on the national stage."
  Of course, Norton cannot vote as a representative of D.C. but her comment is enlightening.
  Even dimwitty Chris Matthews admits that he doesn't know what the objective of the Syria bombing:
“I think the Democrats are going to be forced to sacrifice men and women who really, really don’t want to vote for this,” Matthews concluded. “They’re going to have to vote for it to save the president’s hide. That’s a bad position to put your party in.”
  There is no money for this; the country is running tremendous deficits. Obama does not care, since he never seems to mind spending our grandchildren's money.
  Even the military in the form of General Dempsey cannot state what our objective is in this bombing, since it will be isolated targets with no plan to depose Assad or remove chemical weapons, even as the Syrians move human targets into place as "shields". When asked, Dempsey responded this way:
CORKER: What you’re seeking. What is it you’re seeking?

DEMPSEY: I can’t answer that, what we’re seeking.
  Even Leftist satirists are getting into the act:
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Attempting to quell criticism of his proposal for a limited military mission in Syria, President Obama floated a more modest strategy today, saying that any U.S. action in Syria would have “no objective whatsoever.”
“Let me be clear,” he said in an interview on CNN. “Our goal will not be to effect régime change, or alter the balance of power in Syria, or bring the civil war there to an end. We will simply do something random there for one or two days and then leave.”
“I want to reassure our allies and the people of Syria that what we are about to undertake, if we undertake it at all, will have no purpose or goal,” he said. “This is consistent with U.S. foreign policy of the past.”
  What the hell. 
  Who cares if it's right for the country?
  Who cares if Americans oppose such military action?

  Who cares if we even know who--Iranian government or al Qaeda rebels--used the chemical weapons?
  Now Obama denies he even drew himself into a political corner.
  Obama one year ago:
"A red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized," Obama said in August 2012. "That would change my calculus."
    Today the Narcissist Commander in Chief, who can never accept blame for anything, went on camera and said this in a dramatic confrontational moment:
My credibility is not on the line — the international community’s credibility is on the line,” President Barack Obama said Wednesday in Sweden...[SNIP]the question is how credible is Congress when it passes a treaty saying we have to forbid the use of chemical weapons?"
[SNIP] “I didn’t set a red line. The world set a red line. The world set a red line when governments representing 98%” of the world’s population “passed a treaty forbidding (chemical weapons) use, even when countries are engaged in war,” Obama said in Sweden.
  While McCain plays iPhone poker instead of being attentive in the war debate, Cantor and Boehner rushed to the cameras to support Obama's attack on Syria, before the administration could even articulate an objective.
  VOTE THEM OUT.
  Cantor and Boehner are foolish pawns of a person who cannot remember the truth.   
  The politicians can say what they want to the media, but no one is speaking for the American people who do not want this war and do not want to SHED AMERICAN BLOOD for people who cannot and will not live peaceably.
  The contempt our congressional personnel show the American people is appalling.
  What happened to all the peaceniks who do not believe that America should be the world's policeman? 
  Let us ask the FOTUS this: If Syria decided to bomb our country, would we consider it an act of war, scare quotes aside? 
  Would we do nothing to retaliate?
  Would the citizens of our country not want some action taken to respond?
  What is America's interest in this?
  Kerry claims that Arabs are telling him privately that they will pay for us to go kill the Syrians, that other countries tell him privately they support such an action.
  Really?
  Really?
  Why is everything in secret? Why will Obama not line up UN countries and explain to the people of the United States what our interest is in this bombing?
  Saddam Hussein was one of the most ferocious monsters in the Middle East, yet repeatedly, once they voted for it but turned against it, Leftist congressional representatives and senators used the Iraq war against Bush, again and again.
  Yet here they are campaigning for an inexplicable act of war.
  Who will speak for the American people?
  Fire Boehner. Fire Cantor. Fire McCain.
  And most of all, fire Obama in 2014 with the removal of all the politicos who support this action.
  Make him a lame duck.

  1. As you said we are in complete agreement but I think it's way beyond us. Who will challenge Boehner? I just draw blanks. Any ideas?

  2. Well, our peeps were down there protesting him. I dunno. He's such a weak kneed spineless sycophantic blubberer that I have a feeling he can be pushed around. We really need to flood the offices of these bozos with negative sentiment.

    We are NOT asleep, even though people have gone about their lives in disgust at what these politicians are doing. I'd say at this point Republicans have more to lose than Democrats.

    But I'd also say that Obama really threw it in chaos with his base by doing this even though the Pelosis and Boxers are out there slobbering his warmongering message to the cult followers and dummies of the nation.
