      Bashar al-Assad has carried out a brutal campaign of attacks on his own people. The use of chemical weapons is unconscionable and he must be held accountable. But military action is not the only tool we have.

      If President Trump is going to use military force he must seek congressional authorization. The power to make war rests with Congress in Article I of the Constitution.

      We have learned in Afghanistan and Iraq the dangers of launching military actions without clearly articulated objectives and exit strategies. If the President wants to wage war, the American people and Congress need to be part of that decision.

          So is the President going to be held accountable for his actions or is this just another round of everyone complaining without actually doing anything?

          Not to mention accurate evidence from someone other than the murderous laughing stock, US intelligence. These fks aren't going to stop until nukes are sailing through US Missile Defense shields unmolested.

          The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.
