These damn bastids just can't stay out of anything can they!

(I've thought all along that the regime wants to be "drug kicking and screaming" in opposition right into this mess.)

my thoughts exactly!!!
what does it take to learn to keep our nose out of their affairs?

it's like the cop who shows up at the domestic abuse home. the guy has been beating the hell out of the lady. the cop grabs the guy to arrest him and the lady starts beating on the cop to let him go!

After only seeing the title of the thread (and not knowing anything else about it) I decided to make a little wager with myself and see if Senator McQueeg's name was among those calling for the US to again stick its nose into something that's none of our business.

As expected, it was A SURE BET

Not me, I'm not as astute as you three. And I don't bet against myself as I have a hard time collecting.

BUT I know when a pol is off base and this Mcguy is WAY OFF BASE!!!

I think Israel would prefer known quantity Assad, to unknown religious Islamic terror.

I prefer we stay out. It is appearing lately that Russia is more rational than Obama's agenda.
