break the bank on this one, i'm watching paul in particular, you may in fact have witnessed something like this. horrific pictures, probably cia briefings which told the president of nerve -- what they do to human beings and a president who is trying to bridge the gap between risk aversion and risk readiness which is what it's going to take to identify a strategy that is going to make this particular military action meaningful and make it have legs. i'm not persuaded that the administration has thought through or even knows now exactly whether or not this is going to be a sustained political and military strategy. this guy does not want to get stuck with the check for syria t.. it's hundreds of millions of dollars and not a day after
