Default Poll: Majority of Americans Support Sending Congress to Syria

If I were asked, I'd be with the majority.

She has smaller political testes than Obama.

I wonder why Obamafeels so strongly for this, when he has yet to close Guantanimo, or withdrawl our boys from Iraq and Afghanistan.

The warmongers just cannot wait to kill anymore of our boys for profit.

Ever been to a funeral in Arlington?

Classy, but unemotional...

Maybe a few Senators sons should feel this pain, maybe bring back the draft (no exemptions), maybe then we can see how patriotic the warpigs and kingmakers are, when it is their kid losing their life to an old Mortar shell we sold them 20 years ago.

I have seen her lead a charge with her American Express Black card.

One can only hope it rots her ovaries, eyeballs, and brain, out with MRSA, (flesh eating bacteria)Hopefully it spreads to all her useless colleagues.

I wish AIDS on them all. so willing to put people into the fight for oil and Israel. Not willing to sacrifice their own.
Seriously, bring back the draft, would make the decision to kill people we got no business messing with alot easier.


Maybe we would be liked more if we interfered less. America loves to wave its penis around, we seem to think intimidation is better than diplomacy.

Very little interference in the American revolution, allowed us to come up with our own ideas, if we interfered in Syria, then anything they (the people) come up with, will be dismissed as "american imperialism" if we helped.

This is about Israel, and thier uncomfortableness on this, no other reason.

Let them die for it. I am sick of defending them, they hate us just as much as arabs, they just love our money. (meet an orthodox Jew in NYC, and ask him what he thinks of the Goyim, he will spit on the ground.)
They hate cameras, stick a camera in his face for revenge.

If Israel was not so close, no one would care.

Let the tough guys be tough guys, why should we die for them, maybe they should stop driving tanks into Palistinain settlements.

Imagine a tank driving down your street.

Cameron and Obama, heroes of the world.

Hundreds of thousands will de to their visions.

Way to endear them to us, and in no way will these actions endear them to China or Russia, Not at all.


The UN is infallible, so infallible even the pope bows to us.

Send Congress to Syria? Isn't that against the Geneva Convention, you know, inhumane weaponry against an enemy? Do we really want to face the wrath of the other civilized nations over so barbaric a tactic? Think of all the war crime charges we'd be faced with...

Why, Syria would probably rather be nuked...

The onion has always had a gift of writing its stories as close to reality, but with the satire to make it funny.

I find myself laughing at onion stories, but with the way things are going, they come closer to the truth everyday.

Satire is nearly reality at this point, our congress is that messed up.
