I had the same thought. What good reason did Assad have to use chemical weapons in the first place? Just doesn’t make sense to me.

The “red line” speech still stands as one of my greatest disappointments for the Obama administration, but seeing this gives me, at best, mixed feelings. The utter cynic in me sees this as a means to justify the increased defense budget, as well as a chance to misdirect from the Russia investigation and, in what I can…

Counterpoint: Trump and his clan are dumb enough. No snark.

Oh, fuck. I never thought I’d find myself defending Coach K or Duke. But here we are.

I assumed that was the entire reason for this.

If only Kentucky fans knew Assad’s phone number or Yelp page.

Oh, shit, he found where they hid the tomahawks.

“And also to end terrorism of all kinds and all types...Good night, and God bless America, and the entire world, someone please help, it’s only been 77 days and I just want to go home, seriously can someone else step in and take care of this, Steve and Jared aren’t talking and now I don’t know who to listen to, thank…

Using a deadly nerve agent, he choked out the lives of helpless men, women, and children.

“We pray for the lives of the wounded and for the souls of those who have passed and we hope that as long as america stands for justice, then peace or harmony will in the end prevail. Good night, and god bless america, and the entire world, thank you.”

Except that this happened because of a chemical attack that LITERALLY HAPPENED LIKE 24 HOURS AFTER TRUMP’S SECRETARY OF STATE BASICALLY SAID THAT HE WAS COOL WITH ASAAD. l i t e r a l l y. This is, in large part, Tillerson’s fault. Because he sucks.

“I Call On All Civilized Nations To Join Us In Seeking To End This Infinitely Scrolling Blog Disaster”

Also never forget; Hillary was unsavoury because she was a warhawk who was going to drag the US into a bunch of military conflicts all over the world..................................

Oh good. The States has never had issues removing crazy power mad leaders in the middle east through force before. This will be fun to learn this lesson for the first time.

It shouldn’t have to be said, but I will say it anyway: If you voted for Trump because you “just didn’t like Hillary,” I will never fucking forgive you.

lol thats rich. Liberals don’t vote in midterms and you know it.

As I said a few days ago, if the Democrats filibustered the nomination, they would lose the ability to filibuster the next KKK nominee. They filibustered, and now they will have NO influence on future nominations. That’s on them. Sure, they had justification to do it, but it still made no sense.

But if they hadn’t filibustered this one, the GOP would have just done this for the next nominee? You can believe that the GOP truly felt Gorsuch was a moderate choice and that the Dems were just being ridiculous, but they would/will feel that way about any nominee the Dems oppose.

We might have eliminated fair elections by 2018 so don’t hold your breath.
