oh, you're talking about bombing Syria. my mistake....

Putin isn't bombing "Syria" in the conventional idiom, he is bombing enemies of Syria. Obama wanted to bomb Syria on behalf of groups that hate America. I'll take Putin's enmity over Obama's patriotism any day, as the former seems to work out in our interests more often than the latter.


i mean, it wouldn't be the first time.....
