          @ThePlumLineGS @ron_fournier @TomBevanRCP I opposed Syrian intervention, but I didn't draw a red line -- or paint it as a moral imperative.

          @mattklewis @ron_fournier @TomBevanRCP Is the fact that Rs opposed intervention at all relevant in debate over whether O was weak on Syria?

          @ThePlumLineGS @ron_fournier @TomBevanRCP Choosing not to intervene doesn't imply weakness. But wavering & vacillating sends other signals.

          @ThePlumLineGS @ron_fournier @TomBevanRCP I'll concede Republicans are inconsistent. But he's the president. And he looks very weak.
