Syria's Chemical Weapons

Let's give credit to President Obama for his success in dealing with Syria's chemical weapons. Or WMD to you righties. Accomplished quietly and efficiently. So Obama found what Bush & Cheney could not find?

President Obama is doing a decent job, evidence this success.

Chemical weapons are weapons of mass destruction - The Great War.

Saddam's possible possession of chemical weapons was sold under Chaney's 1% banner, and the nation was off to glory. This ploy ranked right up there with Reagan's TDE. You can fool most of the people most of the time.

If only we could get rid of ISIS just as easily.

ISIS is a biological weapon that manufactures itself under different names.

For some reason I'm thinking about Philip K.

Did they confiscate all the falafel? A wad of falafel that hits you on the head dropped from a bomber at 35,000/ft will kill you sure as Sarin gas.

Or chlorine barrel bombs. But I retract my statement, all specific use as weapons chemicals are taken care of and it is a good thing.
