For first time since Suez Canal in the 50's, Britain will not be subservient to our bomb everyone foreign policy. By 13 votes, Parliment tells Cameron no.

Meanwhile, our President refuses to call Congress back into session because he knows they'll vote no as well.

RE: British will not follow us into another war.
If Obama had laid out a strategy what this would accomplish. Sending a message isn't a strategy. Obama saving face with the world community when he said there is a Red line Syria cannot cross without serious consequences is not a strategy. Helping rebels hostile to the west and western allies is not a strategy.

So if your were being asked to put your military resources to work with this justification would you?

Not to worry. Obama will do absolutely nothing. He is too busy riding the inequality train.

The worse thing we can do is get into another conflict. Obama needs to let his fellow Muslims work it out. LOL

Re: British will not follow us into another war.
England is our only ally and the only world power aside from Russia and China worth two sh*ts. 9% of America support intervention and Russia is salivating. No way this happens.

I agree with you. The only thing I find funny is that conservatives are saying no way.

But if Obama does nothing, watch how conservatives will complain that he did nothing. 03-hissyfit

RE: British will not follow us into another war.
Obama alienated Britain right from the beginning by sending them back their Winston Churchill portrait.
Obama cannot get over the British role in Kenya, he admitted that himself.

We have no foreign policy. Just whatever Obama wants to do that day. No goals, no reason to do things, no
planning, no understanding, it's a complete mess. Obama is even too lazy to work on it.

Why would the Brits want to get into bed with us on striking Syria.
We do not even know who should be in charge.
Only helping the enemy if we have no defined goals that are attainable.
Besides, it's murder. Two wrongs do not make a right.

RE: British will not follow us into another war.
Can you imagine the uproar in the media if George Bush launched an attack on a country with zero international support behind the U.S.? Bush had 30+ countries with him .... Obama has none. But the media is covering for Obama.

No, there's no media bias.

Radio report this morning said that one of the WH spokespersons said that the WH was still weighing it's options, so I'm guessing PBHO is keeping the attack option on the table (Right now I think only France is saying that it needs to be done?)

You haven't been paying attention lately then? Right now everyone on the left and right (except for Obama) are saying "STAY OUT OF THIS MESS!"

I certainly hope Obama avoids lifting one military finger and entering another Middle East mess.

But if he does, I'll enjoy watching the liberal left (and their media enablers) enter an ideological quandary after just having spent 2003-2008 blasting Bush for forcing 'regime change' in a Mideast country involved in civil strife with no direct threat to America.

I am a conservative and want him to do nothing. His red line statement was foolish. He backed himself into the darned if you do, darned if you don't corner.
