‘Escape hatch’: Laura Ingraham on why Obama is backing off the ‘red line’

Obama backed US into a corner with his red line rhetoric. Seems like Russians are offering a get out clause. Sudden change of tone. Weird.

So Pres Obama's red line was more like…. Magenta? Or perhaps salmon? #syria

Summary: Obama sets up a red line. Assad pees all over it. Obama talks tough then looks for a way out. Russia gives him a safe exit. #Syria

Is Obama doing a back peddle on the red line, the one in which he said he didn't actually say but did? This is embarrassing.

Obama's red line gaffe gets us into the Syria mess, and Kerry's gaffe allows Russia to show the world how weak Obama's standing is. #victory

It's never been about innocent Syrian children. It's all about his stupid redline.#Obama
