Illegitimate states, dubious wars, and diplomacy by gaffe

Let’s see if I’ve got this right: our headlong rush to war in Syria was so important that not even the U.S. Constitution could be allowed to stand in its way.  But at the eleventh hour, President Obama decided he needed some accomplices in case it turns into a fiasco, and the British Parliament vote against was in Syria made unilateral cowboy aggression by Obama politically difficult, so he decided to let Congress weigh in after all.  No one in the Administration would promise to respect the outcome of the vote – unless they voted “yes,” of course, in which case it would be the most historically wonderful congressional action since ObamaCare passed in the dead of night on a party-line vote that still required special deals and kickbacks to buy off half of Obama’s party.
