Dems support U.S. strike on Syria because "Assad is SOoo much worse than Saddam!"
It's so totally satisfying to watch Democrats beating the war drums to start bombing Syria over Assad's use of nerve gas on his own people.
I mean, what an amazing reversal of policy--a huge growth process. Cuz just a few short years ago, when Bush was seeking (and received) approval from both congress and the U.N. to invade Iraq, and had assembled a coalition of something like 40 nations to help (though most had no combat forces to volunteer), the idea of bombing another nation that hadn't declared war on us first was...horrifying. Shocking! Un-American!
Sensing some hypocrisy here, citizen? Perish the thought! The Dems and their media comrades say there's nothing of the sort here, because Syria is radically different from Iraq 10 years ago: Like, Syria's Assad has used nerve gas on his own people, whereas Saddam Hussein was a pretty likeable guy who would never do something like...
Wait...what?? You say Saddam ordered his commanders to drop nerve gas on three Kurdish villages around Halabja? The devil you say! What nonsense! Pure propaganda!
What BBC video footage? I don't believe it! Everyone knows video can be faked. And those people in that earlier video didn't look like they were really dead. I think they were just sleeping. Yeh, dat's it!
Besides, Assad is way worse than Saddam. He invaded another country, whereas Saddam was just minding his own business, helping Iraq become more prosperous...
What?? You say Saddam--the guy Bush went after--invaded a place called Kuwait?? I don't believe it! My brother had a friend who visited Kuwait just last year and didn't see a single Iraqi soldier the whole time he was there! I think you're just making that up!
And you stupid wingnut rethuglicans claim Syria has never invaded a neighbor? You can't know something like that! You didn't live there, so you can't know for sure that Assad didn't invade some other country! Our wonderful president--who by the way won the Nobel peace prize--said Assad is a bad man, and I believe our president. Why would he lie?
So Syria is, like, way totally different from Iraq. Plus, president Obama has gotten permission from the U.N. to do whatever, while Bush just defied everyone and invaded all on his own.
What do you mean, the U.N. didn't authorize Obama to strike Syria? That can't be right. Cuz, you know, president Obama would never attack if the U.N. didn't approve. I mean, that's crazy talk! He won the Nobel peace prize, fer hell's sake!
And you say Booosh got a "go" vote from the Security Council? I doubt that! You just make stuff up to support your position! Everyone knows that Boosh was a cowboy, an outlaw. MSNBC said so! And so did Bill Mahr and Jon Stewart! Why would they lie about that?
So since this guy in Syria is way worse than Saddam Hussein, if you don't support the president you're...you're...an isolationist! Take that, you stupid Rethuglicans! And tomorrow we're gonna' call you all raaacists, cuz all the pictures show Saddam had darker skin than this Assad guy. So there!
