Media: "Obama is a chicken! Obama is a chicken!"

[Brian4Liberty]

The media onslaught today is ridiculous. What's next? Will David Gregory, Chris Wallace, and friends start to dance around in circles making chicken sounds and chanting "Obama is a Chicken"?

For example, they have been saying that everyone in the world is laughing at Obama and the US, that the US is losing credibility, that Obama is losing "face". Is this kindergarten?

On MtP today:
Katty Kay - Obama was "weak", "muddled", "indecisive", "confused", "unclear".

It's under control, parties that matter were already updated by the First SWC before he informed the American public:

Obama informed Netanyahu prior to speech of plans to delay Syria strike

Israeli officials say that the Obama telephoned Netanyahu as part of effort to coordinate both states' next moves regarding Syria. By Barak Ravid | Sep 1, 2013 | 08:13 PM |

(http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/1.544753#article_comments)U.S. President Barack Obama (http://www.haaretz.com/misc/tags/Barack%20Obama-1.476751) called Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday and informed him that he planned to delay what seemed like an imminent attack on Syria (http://www.haaretz.com/misc/tags/Syria-1.476734), ahead of his speech at the White House to that regard.
Obama also told Netanyahu that he would relegate the matter to Congress, and ask for a congressional vote on any military action.
Senior Israeli officials who asked to remain nameless stated that the phone call took place roughly four hours before Obama's speech.

In contrast to phone calls made to other world leaders, the White House decided to keep this specific call between Netanyahu and Obama a secret, and not make any announcements to the press.

Actually, Chris Wallace recalled that what he's learned in civics class reinforced the idea that we need congressional approval when discussing the issue with Kerry.

What really plucked me though was that Kerry responded that "The American People" support this theoretical attack through Congress. And then, of course, we had Peter King slopping at the chops for blood.

Sooo tired of all of this carnage being done in our name. And then I've heard a few times today these folks starting to say "Oh, expect oil prices to go up now".

Reminds me of this old skit...

What a load of BS...I recall last election 99% of the electorate sold their souls, supported and voted for the pro-war candidates Obama and Romney. If they didn't want war, it would have been a no-brainer to support an another anti-war candidate on the ballot.

[Paulbot99]

What I am really worried about is Obama being labeled a "peaceful" President for doing this even though he flat out stated he wanted to strike. He's just trying to pass the responsibility and therefore blame onto Congress for his own convenience. If he really respected the Constitution, he'd have gone to Congress before helping the rebels or intervening in Libya.

[ClydeCoulter]

It's funny to see the media act like the chicken shit kid that wants others to start a fight. "You're just chicken to fight so and so". They are losing their credibility by the minute.

Following the Constitition is NOT being chicken, it's being just.

Now, stop supporting the AlCIAda rebels with ammunition and chemical weapons.

It appears that the Syrian people are prepared to surround and protect their president and weapons caches with their own bodies, should the U.S. commence a strike. Although unconfirmed at this point, it appears that Syrian citizens are posting comments on U.S. congressmen facebook sites saying "Over our dead bodies, will you bomb my country".

One of the posts that I found on Rep. Zoe Lofgren's FB:

"Zanoubia Zghaibeh Dear Congressmen,
(Over our Dead Bodies): A big national campaign has just started in Syria, consisting of thousands of civilian Syrian people and families who will be camping beside the national vital installations and critical military points that might be targeted by US presumed strike against Syria.
By voting YES to go ahead in this strike, keep in mind what kind of massacre would be named to your country in human's history books. Meanwhile, be sure that Syria will never surrender under any circumstances"

Other posts from people claiming to be Syrian citizens are asking congressmen to vote '"NO" and give various reasons.

Those comments that I saw were in response to Zoe Lofgren's following post:


Joint Statement from Congresswomen Anna Eshoo and Zoe Lofgren Regarding Congressional Debate and Potential Authorization of U.S. Military Action in Syria - August 31, 2013

We are pleased that President Obama will seek Congressional authorization before engaging in any military hostilities against Syria.

That authorization is legally and constitutionally required – the President cannot legally act alone without the U.S. Congress. This construct is part of the genius of our nation’s democratic system and our Constitutional checks and balances.

We welcome the opportunity to listen to the facts of this matter in the most public forum. While a review of the evidence, both classified and unclassified, as to the use of chemical is important, we are already inclined to believe that these horrific weapons were used based on public and social media accounts. We believe that the question before the U.S. Congress is not “can the Obama Administration prove that the Syrian government used chemical weapons?” Rather, the paramount question is, if that is true, “what is the best course for the United States to take, and why?”

Here are just a few of the questions that are at the heart of what Congress must debate as we and our colleagues determine the best course for the United States to take:

• What role should the United States play in enforcing international treaties prohibiting the use of chemical weapons?

• International treaties are frequently violated by various nations. What precedent does it set if the United States acts in this case? Will the U.S. be placed in a position where we must respond whenever treaties are seriously violated? If not, why?

• Civilian massacres have occurred in other countries without U.S. military intervention and are occurring today in Egypt, for example. Would action in Syria set a precedent for action in other parts of the world? If not, why not?

• Should the U.S. take action when international bodies, including the UN and NATO, have declined to do so?

• Should the U.S. take action when the United Nations has asked that we not do so?

• Should the U.S. act when other nations decline to participate with our country in taking such action, including Great Britain? Arab nations?

• If action is taken by the United States what impact will it have on the future behavior of the Assad regime? On what basis are we concluding that Syria will change its behavior based on a U.S. attack on Syrian targets?

• If the U.S. attack is limited in scope and time, what message will that give to Syria as well as other nations such as Iran? If the action is protracted in scope and time, what are the potential costs in American lives and U.S. taxpayer dollars? For U.S. prestige in the world and in the Middle East?

• How would U.S. military action against Syria make the American people safer? The Syrian people? The people of Israel?

• If a U.S. attack assists the rebels in overthrowing the Assad regime, who takes over in Syria? If the Assad regime falls, will further civil war ensue between competing rebel factions? What role will Al Qaeda play?

• The Syrian civil war is also a proxy war for other powers, including Saudi Arabia, Iran, Russia and other non-state actors such as Hezbollah and Al Qaeda. What impact would U.S. action have on these other actors?

• Will the unrest in Syria spread in the region if the U.S. acts? If the U.S. does not act?

• What impact would U.S. action have on our closest ally in the region, Israel? Would a U.S. attack on Syria lead to retaliatory attacks against Israel or others? What will the reaction of Israel be in that case? What U.S. action would then be required?

• If our country decides that some action by the U.S. is required, what should that action be? Should further diplomatic efforts, as opposed to military action, be considered? Are there feasible sanctions that could be put in place? Other actions?

• If military action is proposed, what are the targets, the scope and the cost? What is expected to be accomplished and how will that serve the interests of the United States? Syria? The Middle East? The World?

• What is our strategy for Syria (and for the Middle East generally) and how would military action support or damage that strategy?

• If the Assad regime, or even the rebels, were to engage in actions that appear to violate international treaties including the use of chemical weapons in the future what action would the U.S. take? What would be the consequences of further action or inaction in such a case in terms of spread of war, entanglement of the U.S. in the Syrian civil war, U.S. reputation around the world, and the perception of American strength and resolve by Iran and North Korea? To what extent is the U.S. “painting ourselves into a corner” by attacking Syria now? Will that force us to attack again in response to further violations? If not, why?

• What impact would U.S. military action have on relations between Russia and our country? What are the short and long term implications for Russia and the U.S., including efforts to continue the reduction of nuclear arms by our two nations?

• What are the possible adverse results of U.S. military action in Syria? What steps have been taken to address those potential adverse impacts? What is the “end game?”
We hope the Congressional debate will be carried out at the highest level, with the result that the United States acts, or does not act, after the most deliberative consideration. In that regard, we ask the President to make his case in the light of public scrutiny, not by “classified” briefings that are kept from the American people and which Members of Congress are prohibited from discussing publicly. This debate will have its needed effect only if it is fully transparent.

We pledge to our constituents and fellow Americans that we will carefully weigh the facts and options that face the United States at this juncture. We look forward to debating and hearing answers to these questions, and other relevant ones that may emerge, as we examine the facts and further hear from our constituents on this very serious issue facing our country.

They need those robots to quell dissent in the US. I'm tellin ya... when people start missing 5-6 meals in a row, their love of government will dissipate quickly. Their patriotic "rah rah" shit will end. Their concept of "bringing freedom to the world" will become something they never thought or said. Not in their own heads, anyway.

I think the idiots in charge of the military know exactly what they are doing. They are building loyal "forces" to stomp dissent.

Think about it like this... Can we assume that "loyal forces" to any government we've toppled in the last 100 years were born that way? I think not. They were made that way, and they were selected and groomed for those jobs, just like a cult leader selects and grooms people for jobs. It's just a cult of epic proportions.

These useful idiots who cheer-lead such will be the first to go. I take no pleasure in that. It's like watching fraudsters prey on the gullible. I feel horrible about that scenario if it comes to be, but I simply can't help them. I can only gently suggest to the people I have contact with that they should be looking out for themselves.

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-3460_162-57600902/assad-euphoric-about-obamas-decision-on-syria-strike-mccain-says/


(CBS News) Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is "euphoric" about President Obama's surprise announcement Saturday that he will seek congressional authorization for a limited strike in the war-torn country, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said Sunday on "Face the Nation."

[Brian4Liberty]

"Bock, bock, bock!!!"

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/plum-line/wp/2013/09/02/neocons-outraged-that-obama-wants-democratic-approval-for-war/



...
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is “euphoric” about Obama’s decision to seek an authorization vote, Sen. John McCain, one of Congress’ most outspoken hawks, told CBS’s Face the Nation Sunday. ”[Obama] didn’t say, ‘It’s a red line — and by the way I’m going to have to seek the approval of Congress.’ He said it was a red line, and that the United States of America would act. And that’s a big difference, and that’s one of the reasons why this is so problematic,” McCain said.

Former senator Joe Lieberman echoed the sentiment on Fox News Sunday: “Our enemies are cheering now … and our allies are worried.” Lieberman added that it’d be “catastrophic” if the democratically elected members of Congress do what polls suggest most Americans want and vote down a strike.

Not to be outdone by the upper chamber, Rep. Peter King, the hawkish former chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, who led controversial hearings looking into Muslim radicalization, said Obama was “abdicating his responsibility as commander-in-chief and undermining the authority of future presidents.”

Going to Congress is “how not to run a foreign policy,” neoconservative éminence grise and former Bush adviser Elliot Abrams wrote in Politico today. “This erratic conduct leaves U.S. foreign policy in a shambles,” he added.

“If you’re going to say something, you’ve got to back it up, and this president clearly has retreated from the position that he took,” Oklahoma Republican Sen. Jim Inhofe said on Fox News, while simultaneously saying he opposed the strikes.

Likewise, former Bushies are not pleased, Politico reports. “No decision is ever totally catastrophic, but this one comes close,” former U.N. ambassador and Fox News regular John Bolton said. “To say that you have made a decision to use force, that the matter is grave and the timing is urgent and then to say but I’m not going to do it is irresponsible.”

I'm telling ya', Putin doesn't give a **** about Obama. He just doesn't want the U.S. to keep encroaching on the Middle East to the point where Russia is cut off from its interests. They keep acting like this is some sort of contest where two sides are competing to take the moral high ground. It's much more carnal than that.
