Common Sense

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.

Team Obama’s public campaign to embroil the United States in Syria’s civil war has kicked into high gear. The President’s senior subordinates have been warning incessantly about the costs of inaction, and making preposterous promises about the benefits of conducting a limited attack on Bashir Assad’s regime.

This week, President Obama will do so, too, with a saturation round of TV appearances tonight and an address to the nation tomorrow.

Will all this lobbying work? Will skeptical legislators ignore their constituents – who overwhelmingly recognize the folly of this proposal – and do as the White House and some Republicans demand? Not if the common sense of most Americans prevails, as common sense tells us our attacking Syria will not make things better. Rather, it likely will make matters worse, and probably much worse.
