Leiberman saw to it that it wasn't a filibuster proof at all. Not to mention the top saw to it that it took the first half year not to seat Al Frankenstein.

Obama inherited a democrat congress and a filibuster proof democrat senate, it's what he chose to do with that which earned him an obstructionist opposition party

Ah yes, the steaming stench of RW accountability.

The Republicans aren't going to push Trump out unless he refuses to sign every bill they send him. That they are too dysfunctional to write any bills is both amusing and scary. It's also probably better for the country. Trump also has a rabid "base" that the GOP needs - they can't afford to offend that base.

Pence would be next, which is terrible, but probably not bordering on existential crisis.

"We cannot have a situation where chemical or biological weapons are falling into the hands of the wrong people," Obama told reporters at the White House. "We have been very clear to the Assad regime -- but also to other players on the ground -- that a red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized.
"That would change my calculus; that would change my equation."
President Obama

Time after time the red line was violated. That is why we are were we are today!

yes, the red line was crossed
but the congress never authorized Obama to use force to deal with the chemical warfare
the senate approved a resolution, which prohibited boots on the ground, but the house never voted on the authorization
instead, Obama was able to get assad/syria to agree to dispose of its chemical armaments and manufacturing infrastructure
now this was 2012-2013
anybody know which party was in control of the congress at that time?

But Donald Trump himself once said that Bush and the GOP left Obama a mess...;)

I'm guessing that is still his position.
 
Trump sure had no problem CLAIMING CREDIT for the jobs report from February, 2017

Why is Trump now disavowing his ownership of Syria?

Trump = useless POS .............
 
Mac77 said:
The weakness of obama was drawing a red line and then wimping out when assad crossed it

If obama had decided to let the syrians kill each other with no intervention from the US that would be ok with me.

But instead he decided to get involved in the weakest way possible and did nothing but make the situation worse in my opinion

Assad did not use chemical weapons. The UN rep cel Ponte concluded the investigation incriminated al Nusra. The precursors were shipped in from Turkey. It is bias in the MSM that doesn't reveal both sides of an issue. Once again, in Idlib, al Nusra/al Qeda/ISIS has created a false flag event using chemical weapons. The ISIS/alQeda propaganda organizations, White Helmets and the Syrian Observatory of Human Rights, have both been documented inventing false narratives, repeatedly. This is just like the Colin Powell WMD deal and Saddam Hussein. The American people need to be awakened from their propaganda dreams and vist the real World.

Let's see.

I don't claim to have access to the intelligence Trump does, nor the consulting resources he has.

But time will tell if he gets it done.

I think the post was offered as sardonic; i.e. if you're so eager for a fight help yourself.

I find your attitude quite quaint and typical of arm chair warriors. After years of conflict and various approaches America offers up yet another arm-chair general with all the answers.

So, help yourself....
