It’s been weeks, so it’s difficult to pin down exactly which part of President Obama’s threat of a strike on Syria finally wore down Bashar al-Assad to the point where he’d consider giving up his chemical weapons to Vladimir Putin. Was it Secretary of State John Kerry’s promise that any strike on the country would be “unbelievably small”? The White House official saying it would be “just muscular enough not to get mocked“? Maybe it was Kerry’s air quotes around the word “war” and the emphatic promise that no U.S. troops would touch Syrian soil.
Nah … it was definitely Obama’s masterful psy op campaign, saying that any military response wasn’t “time sensitive” and then going golfing.

I think it's cute that @davidaxelrod thinks Russia jumped in because Obama put the fear in them seeing as he didn't have the vote or public.

@davidaxelrod Will POTUS insist on a vote?

.@davidaxelrod How credible, w/Congress poised to vote no, WH saying no attack w/o approval & promise of "unbelievably small" strike?

@davidaxelrod Thanks for the laugh. After watching Obama fumble this for the past week we needed some levity.

i like how @davidaxelrod says "No time to falter" and sort of ignores the fact that faltering is the main plan here.

next, @davidaxelrod explains how Benghazi was designed to egg Syria on into false confidence so Obama could bring Russia to the table.
