If Hussein signs on to deploy "thousands of ground forces" in Syria, you can kiss the Democrats goodbye in the 2014 Mid Terms. It is the one thing citizens agree on, regardless if they're liberal Democrat or conservative Republican. Getting into these unwinnable, unaffordable wars is killing us financially, and in world opinion. Countries like China and Russia look and laugh at our total stupidity.
Now Iraq is on the verge of turning into another Syria, as the Muslims once again turn up the wick on killing each other. Any Muslim "good" or "bad", who is stupid enough to remain in these countries, deserves to die. That entire country is ready to explode yet again.

That's the point, disable the US military to the point it cannot or will not resist whatever is coming, or the Russians et al. used to enforce it, as well as sapping more money from our coffers.
Oh, and the russkies and the chinese are
already laughing at us. Don't know that they can laugh any harder than they are, though.
BTW, there will never be another free and open election in this country, the dems have perverted the electoral process so thoroughly that they cannot lose elections.
