Are democrats trying to score cool points with Trump deplorables by being sexist and demanding the resignation of anyone who questions the official story of the justification for bombing Syria? It's very disappointing to see Democrats using misogyny to try and tear women down.

Tulsi Gabbard is on point here and I look forward to her crushing the pathetic Dean. I really don't need to defend her as she's perfectly capable of defending herself.

Dean has little in common with Senators Sanders and Paul when it comes to war and spying.

Gabbard is part of the loose coalition of War Libertarians such as GOPs Rand Paul and Justin Amash and DEM Gillibrand.

Gabbard still hasn't explained her mysterious solo trip earlier this year to Syria without alerting House Speaker Paul Ryan .
 
Dean not liking Gabbard makes me like her even more.
 
If the chem use had been a one off I can see where someone might question whether al Assad was behind it or not but the UN has found him to be behind at least two previous attacks. I mean, hell, Barack Obama gave himself a pat on the back for working out a deal with Russia to rid Syria of chemical weapons so even he knew they were there.

The idea that al Assad didn't have anything to do with the attacks is absurd in the extreme. It's "I found bigfoot!" level conspiracy theory.

Here is my favorite Democrats list:
1) Joe Manchin
2) Tulsi Gabbard

Gabbard is terrific: She was on the DNC and quit when it became apparent that Debbie Blabbermouth Shultz
showed favoritism towards Mrs. Clinton.

She was an officer in our middle east indulgences and wants to prevents any more silly incursions

She speaks well and is kind of attractive!

I'm a Tulsi fan and would like to see her advance her political career on the national stage. I have to admit, however I can't understand her defending Assad. The only break I can give her is that having met with Assad in Syria, perhaps she knows things regarding Assad and situation in Syria that many don't.

On kind of a different subject, has Assad either confirmed or denied his responsibility in the recent attack on his people? I've not seen a news story regarding this.

She's also an Army Major in the Hawaii National Guard. I applauded her resignation from the DNC as well. She could go far on the National Stage. I'm with her opposing regime change in the Mideast!

Even though I don't always agree with her stance on issues I think she embodies what's right in politics. Dean on the other hand is a cancer.

The U.S. along with the E.U. confirmed that the stockpiles were destroyed. if chemical weapons were used, then the Obama administration lied.

You mean ant-War, right?

As far as her previous trip, she's already explained that. She wanted to get some facts and truth from being on the ground, not from lies in the media and in the halls of power in D.C. However, in these modern times, getting first hand facts is considered a bad thing.
 
Howard Deanie still being an expert in stupidity.

Why does this political hasbin keep popping up? Doesn't he realize no one listens to anything he says?

She doesn't defend Assad. From what I've seen she has these basic points:

1. There is no win to getting involved.
2. She's not convinced that the Syrian government is responsible for the chemical attacks.
3. There is no moderate opposition to Assad so getting rid of Assad will be worse than if he stays.

She make these statements, as many other former/current Service Members state, because of her experience. We know things will turn to crap if Assad is gone. It will look like Libya, or worse, which is to say that there will be no Syria and it will be just warring factions. The most likely outcome is the Sunni extremists getting the upper hand and then resulting in the genocide of all ethnic and religious minorities.

You are in the minority of your GOP on this Syrian action taken by trump.

Trying to shift attention to DEMs is what we would expect from GOPartisans .

She's not out of place asking the question. Dean doesn't know what she has or hasn't seen, so he should probably STFU.

Do you support trump's actions because he's a GOPresident or because he's not Obama ?

I don't have a problem with what Trump did and I would not have had a problem had Obama done the same thing.
