Hold the Phone

Well, there's a new twist in the Syrian mess today. The Russians say Assad has agreed to international control of his chemical weapons. And Obama is set to address the nation tonight on this crisis. From all appearances today, it will be a nation decidedly against doing anything in Syria, much less launch an attack. It's extremely doubtful the Congress will support the president on this, but of course he could go ahead with a military strike on his own, and he hasn't said he will or he won't. On top of that we've got the secretary of state John Kerry saying yesterday our planned action will be "extremely small". That should scare 'em.

Dunno . . . this is beginning to look like the Keystone Cops to me.
