| Besoeker: Syria posts go into the Syria column, not 'Africa North'. AoS. |
White Rino Republican Sen. John McShame said Wednesday President Champ struck an emotional chord with the American public late Tuesday, but he was "very disappointed" that he did not lay out a plan to arm vetted rebel groups fighting Syrian President Bashar Assad.
What is good for America, not good for McShame ?
"I feel very badly for my friends in the Free Syrian Army today," Mr. McShame of Arizona told MSNBC's "Morning Joe."
Perhaps you should find some new 'friends'.
Unlike many of his more sane colleagues, the senator has pushed for military action to punish Mr. Assad for a chemical attack Aug. 21 near Damascus that killed an estimated 1,400 civilians.
"I thought we should have acted a long time ago," Mr. McShame said.
"I thought, I thought, I thought, I thought".
He said Syrian rebels will be driven into the hands of extremist groups in the region if they think the they've been abandoned by the United States and other western nations.
It will be a short drive.
"That impression I'm sure has been made on them today," he told MSNBC.
Exercising diplomacy and avoiding war....a bad impression ?
