Saxby Chambliss Having Orgasms over Images of America Invading Syria

Saxby Chambliss (R—Chicken Hawk) wants to penetrate deep deep deep into Syrian territory.  And he feels so strongly about this, he’s willing to fight to the last drop of somebody else’s blood.

He told NBC’s David Gregory:

“I don’t think you can place any limits on it right now.  I do think it’s imperative that President Bashar Assad be removed. It’s pretty obvious that he’s pretty well entrenched now. He’s gone to the extreme of letting Hezbollah have the run of Syria. That is simply not good.  And while I know there are bad guys involved with the opposition rebels, we’ve done a pretty good job of ferreting out who are the good guys or who are the more moderate guys in that opposition, and I’m certain that’s who the president is talking about providing arms to.”

Gee, what could possibly go wrong?

I haven’t seen any national polls on whether the U.S. should get involved in Syria’s civil war, but our local newspaper’s online poll question today is:  “Do you agree or disagree with President Barack Obama's authorization of military arms to the Syrian rebels?”

67.7% of poll respondents disagree.  18.8% agree; 13.5% are undecided.  (This online survey doesn’t claim to be scientific.)

I live in a red county in a blue state.  If two thirds of the people in this area don’t want us quagmired in yet another war, the message is loud and clear (whatever that’s worth).
