Prayers Answered ?

Clearly,
the US will not not approve missle strikes on Syria, nor will the president override Congress' formal decision, should it even come to a vote this week.

The people prevailed.

We'll explore all options still open, instead of first resorting to a symbolic show of force with too high a pricetag...

It doesn't matter who takes credit for the latest promising developments, but we probably should get our words correct, mediapeople...
Americans are more world wisened than war weary. We everyday people are actually stronger and smarter, more alert than you might first think emerging from your cocoons to hear us...

Also, the appropriate comparable to promising fast punitive air strikes on Syrian soil is the military action recently undertaken in Libya -- not Iraq, not Afghanistan, not ... Pearl Harbor 1941 (take it down a notch there, soldier.)

If you see the current Libyan lawlessness as a plus, or the timeline of what occured there as a US military success to be emulated, you're nuts. We did air strikes, supplied the rebels by running them guns and weaponry, and 'assisted' whilst they hunted down their leader like a dog and killed him in the same fashion.

This is us?
Our American appetites sated, we're pushing back from the mid East banquet, no longer wishing to pay the price to be seated at the head of their table.
