Obama says he doesn't want to compare this to WWII, and then he compares it.

Obama says he won't make World War II analogy then says, helping the British during bombing of London was unpopular. #G20 #Syria

Yes, that happened. Because of course it did.
The mouth-flapper in chief discussed Syria a G20 presser today and promised he wasn’t about to draw an analogy to World War II.
Obama: "I want to be clear: I'm not drawing an analogy to WW2"

OMG–watching @BarackObama presser. Stumbling, flailing, grasping, defensive…non-sensical, evasive…invoking WWII… #fail

"I'm not drawing analogies to World War II other than to say … " oh dear.

Obama: I'm not drawing an analogy to WWII other than to say it was unpopular in Congress to help out the British.

Like Obama, the analogy isn’t working.
obama ww2 "when london was getting bombed it was profoundly unpopular to help the british. doesn't mean it wasn't the right thing to do."

OMG. Helping Britain in WWII is hardly comparable to Syria

Terrible analogy RT @GPollowitz: OMG. Helping Britain in WWII is hardly comparable to Syria

If Obama was president during WWII, he'd tax imported beer from Germany and call it a "punitive" action for Nazi bombing of London.

Obama compares himself to FDR aiding Churchill–you know, the colonialist whose bust he threw out of the Oval Office.

Well, obviously y’all just weren’t letting him be clear.
