Obama addresses America

[KramerDSP]

So we're striking. Unreal.

So far it's been, Assad did it, trust me.

This is the stupidest shit ever, Assad said he would give up the chemicals, why is Obama even making this speech?

 

[Kords21]

Sounds like he's saying that Putin can take his offer and shove it.

 

[XNavyNuke]

... And to the Constitutional democracy, for which it stands.....

 

[Dary]

So far, nothing new.

We've heard it all before.

 

[XNavyNuke]

We've been an anchor all right. But we're not policemen. Right......

 

[sluggo]

I feel better knowing that this isn't a boots-on-the-ground war like Iraq, but a targeted air strike. That way only bad, evil people get killed.

I'm sitting 5 feet away from the TV and could easily turn it on, but I just can't subject myself to it first hand. Please continue.

Franco Roosevelt?

 

[KramerDSP]

Obama s proof is basically that the Syrian government increased shelling of the area where the gas attack occurred. That's not much proof if you ask me.

 

[EBounding]

Didn't Obama just say a few minutes ago that Syria isn't a national security threat which makes the limited strikes unlikely to draw a retaliation?

 

[Kords21]

So what are we doing?

 

[XNavyNuke]

So he wants the people to look at YouTube videos edited by Al Qauda then tell our congress critters to vote for war. I see.

 

[EBounding]

So what are we doing?

^this

I didn't watch it until 6 minutes in, but I still have no idea.

 

[XNavyNuke]

So what are we doing?

Do you mean the Glorious Leader and the mouse in his pocket?

 

[HOLLYWOOD]

Franco Roosevelt?

lolo


Once Again... & Again, & Again, & Again... the age old cry of the oppressor... "National Security"


Which, just about every intelligent American is calling it, Bullshit.

 

[Paulbot99]

I agree. What are we doing?

I just watched the speech and he bounced around from "We're doing it" to "Maybe we won't do it."

It seems like he is stalling for time to build a "Coalition of the Willing" to me.

 

[sluggo]

So what are we doing?

We are going to initiate a targeted airstrike with laser-like precision.

It's not like Libya or anything.

 

[KramerDSP]

He seems to have said they will maintain their aggressive military posture and will strike if diplomacy (the Russia deal with Syria) fails.

Let me summarize the speech for those who missed it:
