At least he didn't unfurl the "Mission Accomplished" banner.

Yet.

Or the NRA, or militarized cops, or petrochemical companies. Hell, I could come up with a pretty long list of groups that threaten the safety of our citizens.

Maybe I misheard the news, but the way I understand it is a representative from the administration called the prez of Syria and said, "hey, good morning. We're bombing the shit out of your country"

That's nice.

Oh sure, Mr. Obama..you bomb me now, but will you love me in the morning?

I have to admit, I have mixed feelings about this bombing stuff.

Yes, bombing them and arming the moderates will definitely work this time.

Great, except for the part where air power alone has a slightly better than zero chance of actually fixing the problem and a slightly less than 100% chance of pissing a lot of people off.

I'm glad there's no commitment to ground troops, but on the flip side his isn't going to end using just Tomahawks and F-22s.

They will welcome our bombs with parades and flowers.

Nah - they'll bitch about <i>not enough bombs.</i>

The theory is to bomb the bad guys, so the good guys have a better chance of winning.

If only there were some good guys in the region, it might work.

Hey, what city PD or school district couldn't use a couple of Predator drones? Those Hellfire missiles are great for crowd control.

There's something about the phrase "armed moderate" that leaves me feeling, well, less than confident.
