Attack into Syria

I was tied up most of yesterday with a local Obama fundraiser, so I missed a lot of news.  But a couple of folks at the event mentioned that we had “attacked” Syria.  My initial reaction was to look at the calendar and count the days until the election:  9 (as of yesterday).  As my [...]
