December 2012 QUOTE US president Barack Obama gave the toughest indication yet that the United States will only tolerate a certain level of brutality in the Syrian civil war. At the National Defense University, he said: "The use of chemical weapons is and would be totally unacceptable." Switching to speak directly to Syrian president Bashir al-Assad, he continued: "If you make the tragic mistake of using these weapons, there will be consequences and you will be held accountable." ABC
March 2013 QUOTE President Obama is doubling down on his assertion that such an attack would be considered a "game changer" for his administration - but the president also emphasized the importance of finding out "precisely whether or not this red line was crossed" before making a decision that could lead to an act of war. "Once we establish the facts I have made clear that the use of chemical weapons is a game changer," Mr. Obama said. CBS
May 2013 QUOTE The credibility of the U.S. is ever more on the line with the astonishing revelation that President Obama engaged in unexpected improvisation in drawing a chemical weapons “red line” for Syria’s Bashar Assad. In a press conference last August, Obama put Assad on notice that the U.S. would respond if Assad escalated from conventional warfare against his own people, saying: “We cannot have a situation in which chemical or biological weapons are falling into the hands of the wrong people . . . a red line for us is, we start seeing a whole bunch of weapons moving around or being utilized.” Daily News
August 2013 QUOTE News reports suggest Bashar al-Assad marked the first anniversary of President Obama’s “red line” on chemical weapons in traditional fashion: by launching a new chemical attack on civilians. The White House says the president is “deeply concerned” and insists those responsible “must be held accountable.” Surely Assad is quaking in his boots. Opposition groups released photos and videos of what they said was an attack using an unspecified chemical agent. NY Post
TODAY QUOTE But what Obama said was a little less clear. “We have been very clear to the Assad regime, but also to other players on the ground, that a red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized,” the president said a year ago last week. “That would change my calculus. That would change my equation.” It was also unclear what the consequences of crossing that “red line” would be. Obama has cautioned that unilateral action, particularly without a U.N. mandate, may be unwise and could run afoul of international law. In keeping with the strategy he used in seeking international cooperation for airstrikes against Libya in 2011, Obama warned in a CNN interview last week that international cooperation is key to military intervention. To many, Wednesday’s attack outside Damascus would likely qualify as “a whole bunch” of chemical weapons deployed. CBS
The United States of America is being decimated by a Schmuck who has decieved the American people. Is in the process of destroying the intergrity of this great land. No longer will other nations of the world be able to look up to this once great land. All they see now is a nation who no longer is worth their word. We used Dr. Shakeel Afridi to get Bin Laden only to allow Pakistsan to jail him. Now we've decieved the people of Syria.
If I had to describe Bambino in one word, it would be "Worthless."
"Marsey dose and dosey does." A childhood song of gibberish. That's what Obama speaks.

Ok, the time has come? Time to nuke every one of these countries that have been a pain in our ass! Time for world war three. Better be right with your own path. Like P.F. Sloan wrote:

The issue isn't that I or anyone here believe or want that to happen. The issue is that Bambino made the statement. Whether it was a smart choice or not isn't the point. The point is, he made it.
He has backed himself into a corner. He has to either put up or shut up. And if he chooses that latter, other countries will be able to see just what his party stands for. Our allies will once again see that America's word has no meaning. It will show his lack of compassion. It will show his lack of courage.
It will show his lack of honor.

I think every President has made the same type of statement, some countries just do not listen. Maybe Obama will do like Bush did from 9-11, go take out Brazil!
