FROM THE EAST ROOM PRESIDENT OBAMA STANDS AND DELIVERS ON THE SYRIAN TRAVESTY.............

Having picked up my dinner from the kitchen of MMT to eat in my quarters last night in order to follow my preferred customary practice of watching presidential pronouncements and other special event news coverage live from pre to post telecast, analysis, and commentary, President Obama's Address from The White House on Syria was my chief concern late into the night.  As for making the case the case for a measured limited response to the atrocious slaughter of 1,400 persons including 400 children, with the use of Chemical Weapons by  Syrian dictator Bashir Assad; the CNN Instant Poll taken only of viewers of the President's 15 minute Address found by a margin of 6% - 37% viewers feel the President made a Convincing Case for taking  action against Assad's regime.  But but 47% support the use of Force in the Syrian Travesty; while 50% are opposed to American intervention, even in a limited strategic strike.............Fr .Troy  David
