He was asked in one case to give an example, he has never done that and until that is done by him I will continue to ask and continue to wait.

It looks like someone may be setting us up for more military action. It may ba about time for the "rebels" to stage another chemical weapons attack. Having been burned badly on Iraqi WMD we need to be very skeptical of anything our government tells us.

We recently lost a brave and patriotic pilot who was on his 9th combat deployment. These brave men and women aren't pawns to be used and abused by our government.

IF there is a chemical weapons attack or an alleged one there needs to be a fhorough investigation before any actions are taken and all Intel used to justify the action including all sources and methods needs to be shared with the American people. Just trust us isn't enough.
