What was Putin NOT going to get if Obama followed YOUR plan,
which was that we simply step away from the whole affair?
That was your plan wasn't it?
Obama wanted to attack Syria. Putin didn't want him to. At least at this point Putin is not going to attack Syria and Putin gave up nothing to get that. And now I'm supposed to say dang, you're right, Obama did win?
Obama wants Syria to stop using chemical weapons, to sign onto the ban, and to get rid of their chemical weapons. Obama wanted Russian cooperation in this.
That is the direction we are now moving. Without airstrikes.
How can you be so stupid as to claim this is not a positive outcome, SO FAR, for the US and for the Obama administration?
