You can say that but you don't decide. It's 100% out of your hands.

Bloomberg says about US oil: 'Output is putting the nation on pace to surpass Saudi Arabia as the world's largest producer by 2020, according to Energy Department data.'

Apparently we aren't allowed to have an opinion on anything that's out of our hands?

Sure you can.

Hello:

I'm all for PUNISHING Assad. I'm a Jew. I HATE that mf'er. I'm all for teaching him, AND the world that we won't stand for the use of WMD's.

I WOULD be for that stuff, if I thought it would work. If I thought we could DO that by lobbing a few bombs at him, then that's what we should do.

But, it won't, and we won't go all in. You can't tippy toe into war. We tried that. It doesn't work.

Besides, if Al Quada HAVE taken over the rebels, then our enemy is killing our OTHER enemy. What's wrong with that? Oh, yeah.. There's PLENTY wrong with it in the long run, but we should let things shake out a little.

It isn't even clear that Assad was the one who did the chemical attack.

If he does as he has threatened and launches an attack in Isreal... then I'm all for blowing him and that cesspool into the stone ages.

Because Israel has played NO part in this so far.

No and no again. This has all the smell of a false flag .

The rebels gassed themselves for a photo op to make people mad at Assad?

Exactly how many factions are going on in that country? Can anyone list them? I've heard seven or so, most at odds with each other.

I still believe this is another distraction.. to divert attention away from the growing Benghazi investigation...

Who gives a hoot what Syria does inside Syria... what interests do we actually have there anyway? If they all killed each other the world would be a little better in the morning.

Particularly wasn't it the Obama supporters arguing we aren't the Worlds police force for say... the entire 8 years of Bushes Administration...

Oh I'm sure no rebels were gassed. But they did make sure they got a video of all the children.

Actually, I do. Library volunteers and patrons, and an Egyptian woman and friend on FB (had been on askme.com and AW) who lives in Cairo. I do get around. :)

Come on.

Would Lorena Bobbitt be allowed near another knife? Would any man push a gun in her hand?

Where did this idea that women don't fight when the chips are down come from, oh I know in that place where women sit back and sip their latte's in smart cafe's and gossip about other women. Mustn't chip a nail you know, it would be a disaster of WWIII proportions
