Hi Cactus Flower,

"A good rule is to listen only to folks who don't use Hitler for a comparison."

You don't know 'who' will use 'Hitler' until you listen ;))

Besides, I believe its important to know what others are saying/spewing even if I don't agree, maybe even more important at times.

Obama has put himself & the US in a terrible position, and he did it when he spoke off the cuff, drawing a red line...

To strike Syria only to punish without trying to have a meaningful impact is dangerous.
But Iran is watching & We have told them NO Nuclear weapons Or Else... Or else what...
IMO, since Israel, Turkey, & India have nuclear weapons why not Iran?
Jeez, what about the lunatic in North Korea?

I was just listening to a UN Q&A press conference. There are 1,000 UN workers in Syria helping with humanitarian issues. Can you imagine if a US missile killed any of them by accident...

We are caught between a rock & a brick wall.

Obama will be at a meeting next week, Putin will be there also. Obama had canceled meeting Putin over Snowden, maybe he should rethink that. If he can get Putin to condemn the use of chemical weapons by Syria, that might make a difference overall.
Let the World condemn Assad!

Hi clo,

Kudlow. Yes. Hmmm.

I agree with you.

Just because something bad happens doesn't mean the response is justified.

Use of military power is a knee-jerk reaction for some.

I'd have tried to use this awful incident to advance talks between the combatants. That's the least costly path to peace from here.

Folks with no history always compare leaders they hate with Hitler. In their empty minds, Hitlers are everywhere.

A good rule is to listen only to folks who don't use Hitler for a comparison.
