No one has a serious Syria strategy... especially republicans.
During their exchange at the Council on Foreign Relations, Clinton noted that Assad "has killed far more Syrians than ISIS has to date."
This prompted Zakaria to ask a rather pointed question about how difficult it would be to stabilize Syria:
If the only way you could put together a moderate Syrian force is by having the United States cajole, bribe, arm, and train it. We are then looking for this force to defeat ISIS, then defeat Assad, then defeat al-Nusra,then defeat other al Qaeda affiliates, keep at bay the Shiite militias and Hezbollah, taken control of Damascus, and establish a pluralistic democracy in Syria. Isn't that kind of a tall order?
"Certainly described like that!" Clinton replied to laughs.
No one has a serious Syria strategy... especially republicans.
Republican strategy... as usual... is to shoot first, and ask questions later. No exit plan, no end game, no thought whatsoever. Sadly, Clinton shares some of their beliefs which is disappointing considering she's married to a good president who is smarter than that.
Hillary is the most dangerous Democratic candidate in a long while. At least Obama didn't come in the WH bloodthirsty.
I think Bills escapades have her raging mad at the world.
Nearly all the crazy GOP candidates want full blown war.
True. Except for Trump and Paul.
Yes, and Paul is not a serious candidate
Ouch...

I think it's the opposite. Hillary is a liar - she'll say anything to get elected (expediency), but hopefully when elected, she move more to the center. Obama, otoh, is just plain crazy/devoid of reality - JV, contained, etc. Not that he doesn't lie too (you'll keep your plan, doctor, $2500 and I'm not an emperor/can't do executive order on immigration) but he really believes all the bs he spews.
Repubs are too much for the military for Paul to have a lot of support. He polls poorly.
How do we know at this point?
how about his minuscule poll numbers?
and he got KY to change their law so he could run for Senator and for President. KY got jellied.
Trump's voters could be up for grabs if Trump drops out. We never know what will happen this election.
and Carsons. Before its all said and done Trump and Carson's piece of the pie, which is >50% will belong to others
Trumps and Carson supporters are so anti-establishment, so pissed off, so anti-government (the way the Repugs have wanted), they may not vote at all if they can't have either of those two jerks.
and those supporters would fall to Krazy Kruz or Rubio before going for Wombat Hair.
How do you know for sure?
I don't think so. They are still republicans - just pissed off at the establishment. I think if it's a choice of any of the repubs and Hillary - they'll turn out. Would you believe she's running 2 ads on Obamacare - so out of touch - you have just to read the comment section on any left-wing/MSM article on Obamacare to see that it's killing middle class, working America. Even the dems are complaining.
Obamacacre hasn't affected me a bit. I still get insurance through my work like I always have. Premiums increase a little every year like they did before Obamacare.
Good for you - for the rest of us - not so.
How have you been affected?
$1610/month to cover a family of 5 - higher deductible. I joined a health sharing ministry instead - am paying preventative screening myself. Would you believe only $80 cash for each: diagnostic mammogram and bilateral ultrasound.
What were you paying before?
$975 at another company that contributed HSA $s - didn't choose the more expensive PPO. The $1610 is at recent company with no choice - my husband's portion doesn't meet ACA's 9.5% affordability rule. Of course, this stupid rule doesn't take into account the rest of the family - only the employee.
