It's funny to see some of those statist and interventionist neo-cons suddenly jump on the Civil Liberties and Libertarian non-interventionist bandwagon.

Coming from people who bashed Bush for starting two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan saying things like "Bush doesn't have a clue", but here you are, defending Obama's intentions to arm the Syrian Rebels, who could most likely be comprised in whole or in part by terrorists!

 

[Political Junky]

I didn't support Bush's war in Iraq and I don't support Obama's aiding Syrian rebels.

She can see Damascus from her front porch. It's a bit over the top of Russian.

I didn't support Bush's war in Iraq and I don't support Obama's aiding Syrian rebels.

+1
Every policy I opposed under the previous Administration, I oppose under the current administration.

I think it's a mistake, I don't support any American intervention in Syria.

Funny, after I mentioned it. Anywho, I don't support it either.

I'd like to second her motion

 

[TemplarKormac]

One other thing I noticed. I got two staunch liberals on this thread to agree with Sarah Palin.

I assume Sarah knows that Allah means God. Maybe not...

While I believe it is a mistake, a very big mistake, to aid the al Qaeda backed rebels in Syria, and it is just as big of a mistake to support Assad, I can not agree with Palin's reasoning behind her position.

When she says, "“Until we have a commander in chief who knows what he is doing....let Allah sort it out!” She loses me.

I am not a huge fan of many of our President's policies, but the reasons for not getting involved in Syria are too numerous to count and none of them have anything to do with the man sitting in the Oval office. Now or in the future.

This is a no win scenario for the U.S. May as well sit it out and deal with the final outcome later.

Think. What did our support of the Mujahideen get us...?

Like she has a clue....is she even still relevant in any meaningful way?

To the extent she remains representative of many on the right; the stupidity and ignorance she expresses is likely that of many conservatives.

 

[whitehall]

So now "Military intervention" is a ....freaking good thing?

Sure, and her counterparts on the left are most likely the same.

So Obama now wants to arm the Syrian rebels so what kind of arms is he planning on sending them and how will he be able to keep the arms out of the hands of the Al-Qaeda types and other radicals that now make up part of the rebels? Seems to me if you were going to do this you would have done it a couple of years ago when you knew who was who I don't see how could tell friend from foe in the clusterfuck that is Syria today.
