#2 They called his bluff. Obama wouldn't fight for his own mother.

Putin, the North Koreans, just about every monkey out there can give him the ass and he won't do anything but make a speech.

And they did kill our Ambassador in Benghazi and he never did jack about that either. He's a suit with a mouth. I-N-C-O-M-P-T-E-N-T. And who did he appoint to be head of the State Department? Lurch who thinks you go in the military because you are too stupid to get a good job like his. And John Edwards....another real democrat. They certainly know how to pick 'em.

#5 Chemical weapons are banned because they are seen as 'Weapons of Mass Destruction.' So, if they are being used, shouldn't they destroy masses of people or stuff? Should there be a question of whether they were actually used or not?

#6 Were the contents of the bags suspended in a blue liquid?

#7 Glenmore:

The term "weapons of mass destruction" has as much meaning as "assault rifle." Specifically, none.

Chemical weapons are area denial weapons.

#8 The Obama fiscal policy is a weapon of mass destruction.

CBR are designed to deny territory or maneuver to the enemy...if a few thousand enemy soldiers get in the way of denying territory...well stuff happens.

#9 Bambi seems to be playing the Kadaffy role in an old Robin Williams bit where Reagan kept crossing Kadaffy's "Line of Death".

"OK, then. now THEEESE EEESE the Line of Death!"
