So Kerry thinks he has allies in the double digits willing to attack Syria. Lol aside from France who?
Also noticed that the EU ministers are calling for no action until the UN produces a report, and I'm with them 100%. The US needs to have something solid, as well as high count of people willing to take part in this before just throwing their weight around.
Or erm….I don't know maybe see how the US public feels about this before making such a huge decision.
In my eyes this has to be one of the dumbest responses Obama has taken while in office.

@Jejune:
The next three years with PM Abbott should be interesting indeed. IMO, in any other election Abbott would not have been voted in; there were better candidates even among conservatives. But the Labor party has been fucking around backstabbing each other and squabbling for the past term, so despite Abbott being anti-gay marriage and a goof etc, it's not a surprise this happened. Even as someone who dislikes Abbott, I'm not sorry to see Rudd (current PM) go and Labor put in time out. Hell at least Abbott will give us some laughs (even if pay for them with stagnant shitty policies).
Hmm..

the thing is that just about every single person or party remotely capable of winning is either a moron, or a gigantic prolapsed anus.
Rudd is just awful. Never before have I seen such an uncouth blaggard of this calibre, with an added total inability to relate, understand or appease the public. He is just the tool of tools.
..gillard was useless and spent 85% of her time in power playing the victim in stead of focusing on topics that actually matter. The sexism and misogyny crap took about two months or so alone before the derailment made it anywhere close to actually covering stuff that was of value. She only has a few decent moments in her time in power worth praising.
And abbot is a dinosaur, with the thought processing taken from the dark ages. He is essentially Australia's stereotyped mans man woman beater alcoholic lazy acdc racist ihrfnvirunvir.
I can't really ay anymore than pointing out his first two issues are to stop the carbon tax and stop the boats. Hmmm the first one is just dumb, and the second one was already put into place a month ago. Why not focus on sometime important like the fisheries, the aboriginal community, education, economy, policing, immigration, farming, land expansion and a whole Miriad of untapped resources that don't revolve around the mining industry!
If I could have anyone in power it would be penny Wong hands down. She sets tha standard of decent hardworking politicians.
And for those of you that don't know; Australia has some of the worst leadership and politicians on the planet. It's like that took the manuscript of a jerry springer episode and made it the common standard within the parliament.lol
