This guy is so amazing. He lies through his teeth and re-writes history.
That is now to be expected. What is amazing is so many in the media, and this country, believe, still, what he says. =================================================== http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/obama-i-didnt-set-red-line-syria_752712.html **** Obama: 'I Didn't Set a Red Line' on Syria**** 9:31 AM, Sep 4, 2013 • By DANIEL HALPER<http://www.weeklystandard.com/author/daniel-halper> **** **** ** ** President Obama said in Sweden today that he personally "didn't set a red line" on Syria:**** http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=n6ePJXR216c **** "First of all, I didn't set a red line," said Obama. "The world set a red line. The world set a red line when governments representing 98 percent of the world's population said the use of chemical weapons are [inaudble] and passed a treaty forbidding their use, even when countries are engaged in war. Congress set a red line when it ratified that treaty. Congress set a red line when it indicated that in a piece of legislation entitled the Syria Accountability Act that some of the horrendous things happening on the ground there need to be answered for. So, when I said in a press conference that my calculus about what's happening in Syria would be altered by the use of chemical weapons, which the overwhelming consensus of humanity says is wrong, that wasn't something I just kind of made up. I didn't pluck it out of thin air. There's a reason for it."**** And here's video of Obama setting a "red line" in regard to Syria, from over a year ago:**** http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=avQKLRGRhPU **** And here's a background call in April 2013<http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2013/04/25/background-conference-call-white-house-official-syria>with “a White House official” that left no doubt about what President Obama's own officials thought about where the red line came from:**** __._,_.___ __,_._,___ -- -- Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
