This is insane, all I see is more young Americans losing their lives/limbs for political gain. It's time to rid ourselves of these so called leaders. Prepare yourselves people, it's going to get real nasty from here on out. Americans no longer have a voice in our government.

What are you talking about? We're talking about firing cruise missiles from ships off the coast of Israel to take out Syrian military sites. What's the big deal? Turkey has said it's ready to boots on the ground if needed.

AZ - do you realize we will actually align ourselves with AQ - at least for the short-term? AQ has taken a position with the rebel forces. This is unacceptable.

We need a modern-day Thomas Jefferson to lead this revolution! give me liberty or give me death, as old Patrick Henry said! I HATE our federal government and I believe almost all of our elected officials on the federal level deserve to be executed! if people in this country would just UNITE together under one banner, the banner of FREEDOM, then we could annihilate our federal government and start all over; strong states rights and weak federal authority will ALWAYS be the key to success, as is the "rule by many" rather than "rule by a few" Compromise and Unite and see just how powerful America REALLY is!

And why, Mr. Speaker, does the United States really "need" to do this? I don't even want to think about what kind of deals were cut between Boehner and Obama behind closed doors, although I'm sure we'll all be smelling the stench of it in good time.

No! No more wars in the middle east or elsewhere. They have proven to be a losing proposition. The warring factions have been at each others' throats since Biblical times. Quit sending money and aid to people who hate us. Pay attention to our borders and what's happening in our own country. The economy is already in the tank, more people on government aid than at any time in our history. Stay home and take care of business here for a change. No more American lives sacrificed for nothing.

Why are we attacking a country that is not at war with us? These Arab nations hate us, they want us to fight for them, and then when we are helping them they band together to kill us. They don't like each other and they sure don't like us. Leave them fight.....

No Boehner. "Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeep!" Wrong choice. Please tell me this isn't a repeat of Iraq. What did we do before? We spent monies on a war we did not have. Here we are with Bush's tab and Obama's incompetence and yet we are funding this strike with what? Hopes and promises? We have seen what that affords the US which is why we are where we are now isn't it? The answer should be flat out, NO. No more. Let the Arab leadership step forward to handle Arab problems. Not the US. No more.

Once again Boehener shows the weakling that he is. 100,000 people killed by bullets, 1000-1500 by gas (not even sure by who) and we need to get involved? I say no. This is the same US government that says they aren't spying on its citizens and uses the IRS and EPS to harass them. It's all a sideshow to get the focus off the current scandals. How about we focus on the impending budget and debt issues. We don't need or can we afford to be involved with another war.

This is not our war nor our fight. Let those countries with ties to Syria deal with it. Obama said at one time that we are not the world's law enforcement, but he shot off his mouth about a red line in Syria and now he has to save face. Congressional Republican leaders are no better.
Government has to stop wasting our money on Islam. They declared us their enemy and we don't owe them anything unless they are allies like Turkey or Jordan, then we must step up if they are threatened because we have that long standing commitment.
