Did he lie us into Syria?
Yes.
I think the patriot act gave him the power to do what he did. Thank Bush/Chaney for forcing everyone to sign that. If not they got mailed anthrax.
It may have gave him the power but he also argued as Candidate Obama that the Patriot Act needed overturned.
As a senator, Obama condemned the Patriot Act for violating the rights of American citizens.

So after becoming president he decided to further abuse the act. Another in a long list of Obama lies.
He still lied about Syria.
U.S. airstrikes. In his address to the nation on 10 September 2014, U.S. President Obama announced his intention to bomb ISIL targets in Syria and called on Congress to authorize a program to train and arm rebels who were fighting ISIL and the Syrian forces of Bashar al-Assad.
I don't see anything about Republicans believing Obama lied us into this conflict.

Not apples to apples.
When Trump blew up that Iranian general, did he lie us into a war with Iran?
No, but only because Iran was the smarter entity there.
