You don't have to be an apologist to realize you absolutely butchered your interpretation. Nuance doesn't come easily for some I suppose.so says ever the apologist...
So now Obama says, "Red line? What Red Line? Who said anything about a red line?"
Obama says he didn’t draw the red line on Syria, world did | McClatchy
Does anyone still believe a single word that comes out of this shyster's mouth?

Obama drew the line in the sand because the entire world is with him realizing the level of genius and legendary courage required to stare down Putin and the party of no. From health care to saving refugees, we can be grateful to have such a man who puts the L in leadership, day in and day out, while Putin and Assad run scared, being clearly outwitted
I never believed him from the get go. I said he'd be another George W. Bush. I was right.
I dunno, our side doesn't usually get pains in the butt, well, except from the left... and...is your signature statement a trick question?The butthurt is strong with these nutters.
I don't think this is fair to Dubya. While deeply inadequate as President, Bush Jr apparently mostly did believe what he was saying. Whenever Obama opens his mouth, I feel like I need a pair of tall rubber boots, a shovel and a bucket.

After 9.11
Can you, honestly, point to any American politician you would expect to keep a cool head "under the circumstances"?
Look, I am not any kind of Bush apologist. Never voted for the guy, even though Gore and Kerry made the temptation really hard to resist. All I am saying, he comes across as a limited, well-meaning bloke, way over his head. Obama is something else and something worse. If only because he is supposed to "know
better".

I'm expecting our politicians to not get us into a 10+ year quagmire full of debt and dead Americans. I don't think that's unreasonable.
Huh? what the hell are you saying. What is the end game? We send in a few tomahawks kill a bunch of civilians for the Assad regime to put on TV. Then Assad continues to gas sunnis. Who are we supporting? al-Qaeda? The world is laughing at us and you think everything is coming up roses. Where do you people come from?
