    Your kind of conservative? Damn right, I'd rather go play in heavy machinery.

          Reading my post does seem to imply that doesn't it? Not exactly what I meant though. That is a "liberal" line that he is taking in regards to this. His saying that my Iraq example fails is also denying reality. Only a moron would think Obama's "red line" comment was ambiguous. Unfortunately, that seems to be the tact liberals are taking. So,,,Aeson is not liberal, but his viewpoint on this subject tows the liberal line. Sorry for the confusion...twas indeed my fault.

            In all fairness, you do occasionally think clearly.

                Ahh...I disagree! kentonio has shown some brief glimpses of conservative thought from time to time. Admittedly, it is a rarity.

                • He likes Thatcher and Cameron, and that's about the extent of his "conservatism". Oh, also, he loves the House of Lords and other British hereditary nonsense.

                    True, he has made a few rare stupid statements.

                      As you've clearly demonstrated that you don't comprehend English, I can only guess that by "moron" you mean "someone who can comprehend and properly use the English language".

                      The line was drawn in a vague manner. "Lots of" or "significant amounts of" are not specific at all. There was no time-frame given for response either. What the response would be was left at "changing options on the table" or "hold you accountable" ... neither of which are specific about what the response would be.

                      The only way he could be more vague is for his eyes to roll back into his head and start speaking in tongues.
                      His saying that my Iraq example fails is also denying reality.
                      The Iraq example was that not pre-emptively condemning a course of action possibly contributed to the action being carried out. Applied to Obama's comments on Syria, it would suggest that Obama should have pre-emptively condemned the course of action, which he did.

                      That is a "liberal" line that he is taking in regards to this.
                      You're backpedaling worse than a politician.

                      "It's one thing to support your guy, but don't be blatantly stupid with me about it."

                      You were clearly implying that my arguments for Obama were because "he's my guy". You referred to me as "Libs". Now you want to pretend you just meant that I was, in this case, arguing in a way that matched up to a liberal point of view. Keep running

                      The most absurd part of it all is it runs counter to your claim that, "That post defies any accepted reality on what everyone (including the Prez) thinks a "red line" comment means." Meaning, you are saying I am arguing in a way that doesn't match up to anyone's line ... but now I'm just walking the liberal line again. Make up your mind ...

                        • Have to say I'm pretty disappointed with the noises the US will start arming rebels. I'd be extremely wary of getting in involved in this mess, but if I'd decide to get involved then I'd do so without reservation. To enforce a no-fly-zone and bomb the **** out of Syria's military airfields ought to be the least of it. Don't take half-measures that may only serve to prolong the conflict.
