You make a good point. Here is a further point. He used a fossil fuel to kill himself. I have not been able to find out what it was. Why didn't he kill himself in an environmentally friendly way ? Maybe hook himself up to the electrodes coming off of a solar panel. That would taken about a month. For faster results he could have jumped into the blades of a wind turbine and called himself Raptor Man.

President Obama did act on his "red line". while the term was dreamed up by McCain.. and was derogatory..

The congress that refused to allow the strike on Syria is the place to look.. Obama did things by the law and was rejected..

Obama made a huge error when he did not promote the information as the Right wing promoted the lie that he failed.. He succeeded..



However it should be remembered that Syria gave him the results he wanted..

They pledged to end chemical warfare production. The fact that they did not puts them in league with NK, Russia and Iraq..

Statements from multiple lawmakers, including Sens. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), cited failures of the Obama administration in their support of President Trump. The fact is President Obama sought to use force in Syria in 2013, and Congress did not approve.

A sarin gas attack in a Damascus suburb of Ghouta on Aug. 21, 2013 killed hundreds of people. Countries reported differing numbers of those killed in the attack, with a preliminary assessment by the United States putting the number at 1,429, including at least 426 children. An Aug. 29, 2013 memo from the U.K. Joint Intelligence Organisation said “at least 350” people were killed.

On Aug. 31, 2013, President Obama said he had authorized the use of force against Syria, but would seek authorization from Congress before carrying out the strikes. Mr. Trump tweeted several times after the sarin attack, blasting the Obama administration. One such tweet, sent around 7 p.m. ET on Aug. 30, 2013 said, “The President must get Congressional approval before attacking Syria-big mistake if he does not!”

Obama’s authorization request was in the form of Senate Joint Resolution 21. The bill never received a floor vote and U.S. took the diplomatic route instead, negotiating with Russia on a deal to call for destroying Syria’s chemical weapons by June 2014. Syria’s Bashar al-Assad agreed to do so, and the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons told the BBC in June 2014 that the country had finished shipping its stockpile out of the country. The Department of Defense states those weapons were neutralized in international waters on board the MV Cape Ray.

In 2013, Sen. Cruz penned an opinion column in the Washington Post titled, “Ted Cruz: Why I’ll vote no on Syria strike.” In the column, he said he would not vote on a Syria strike because Assad’s actions were “not a direct threat to U.S. national security,” those who oppose Assad are not necessarily better, and “the potential for escalation is immense.”

He just did what he was fighting against. The temperature of the Earth just rose 1/2 of a degree when that fruitcake ignited himself. Again, we see how the left does what they supposedly fight against!!

Well since I've already been accused of having no compassion. This is probably the best news of the day. You just can't fix stupid no matter what you do or how much you want to. Made for a good chuckle this early AM. Thinning the herd one at a time.

Maybe ovommit should not have used the "red line" drawn in the sand analogy. He probably wished he had used the phrase "white line" drawn in the sand as that would have been more derogatory but more politically correct and all "social justice" warriors would have approved!!

A flaming krytonitic hypocrite is more apropos.

He set a good example other Leftest should follow

What a IDIOT!!! One less Liberal in this global warming world.

son of witless

A waste of a life. A Global Warming activist. Then you burn yourself to death, over what ? Politics ? I joked after Trump won that I went on Left Wing websites and they were crazy and suicidal. They were. Most of them were lower on the food chain than this guy. He had some power in his life and is not the type that I feared were suicidal.

Before this made news I bet Las Vegas would of had the odd at 99 to 1, that if anyone did that it would be a liberal Democrat.

bahmer

The next mass shooting will be done by a democrat 99% to 1%. Next bombing will be done by a democrat 99% to 1%. and the list goes on.
