Texas GOP Rep. John Culberson thinks that the Senate may hold its vote on the Syria resolution next Wednesday — the 12th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.
.@johnculberson tells reporters the Senate is aiming to vote on Syria on 9/11, says House should, too.

More from Roll Call:
“How could it be any clearer? That’s the perfect day to do it,” Culberson said. “They need to defeat it to honor the victims of 9/11 and we will not give aid and comfort to al-Qaida and the psychopaths that carried out the 9/11 attacks.”
So far, tweeters don’t seem very keen on the idea:
Wait, we're gonna vote on arming al-Qaeda connected rebels in #Syria on 9/11? America, you crazy son of a bitch.

Unbelievable: On the 12th anniversary of 9/11 we may be voting to militarily help the perpetrators of 9/11. #Syria
