Midknight Review -- new and revised: Here is a summary of Obama's Syrian policy. You tell me if this helps you understand what the heck Obama is doing:

Obama’s Syrian policy

We begin with two years of silence. Libs supported this “policy” in mass. Such is the "way of peace" for a Progressive.

A year into his policy of silence, Obama spoke of a “red line” that “would change my calculus” but ruled out military action (again, this was more than one year ago); the libs supported this “policy” in mass, but Assad was totally unimpressed.

One year later, this past June, we have the first confirmed chemical attack and Obama decided to pretend the situation had not gotten worse; the libs loved this continued tough talking policy of in-action, believing that doing nothing, once again, equals "peace."

Meanwhile 100,000 Syrians had been killed in this civil war, by June of 2013. Obama's only concern, however, was limited to those who died by chemical poisoning. Still, silence and the continuation of his doing nothing foreign policy: the Libs were at peace with themselves.

Four weeks ago, 1400 Syrians were gassed to death, 400 of them children, and Obama made the decision for a limited military strike against Syria, without going to Congress; the libs were not so supportive.

Nearly two weeks later, just when an attack seemed immediate, Obama again changed his mind, and decided to get Congressional support.

Today, he realizes that he has no international support, nothing from NATO, forsaken by the G20, and a 60% “no” vote from the American people. The Senate is split on the issue (25/25 with 50 Senators undecided) and the House has 220 votes against a war resolution supporting Obama's mystery plan for war in Syria.

Latest change of direction

Yesterday (Sunday), in a London news conference , Secretary of State John Kerry suggest that Assad could avoid an American attack by turning “over every single bit of his chemical weapons to the international community in the next week. Turn it over, all of it, without delay and allow a full and total accounting."

Finally, after nearly two weeks of Obama/Kerry speak, we have this poll taken by CNN:

CNN POLL: Support: 27%; Oppose: 71%...

So, there you have it, as clear a political statement on Syria as the Man of Words can get . . . . . . . . and we still do not know what the heck he is doing.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
