    From the same article:

    So McCain wants to do basically the exact same thing, except going through NATO instead of the UN. Oh, my!

    Jesus Christ 'fog, the article even says:
    They both want the same fucking thing. Yet I don't see any thread from you calling out McCain for his stance. Who could've ever expected that to happen? :roll:

    Do you understand how the UN Security Council works? They can not 'pass' a resolution on that. I thought everyone understood how the veto power by permanent members is set up. Sorry.
    How Obama SHOULD have worded it... "UN SC Should Debate a Resolution..."

    As for 'NATO' they CAN stand firm... but, indeed, NATO is part of the impetus and problem on this.

    I would say there is a difference between the UN and NATO.

    So the problem is the wording? That he used "pass" instead of "debate"? Wow, that's terrible. That's really a very very big deal. Presidents should not be allowed to have any malapropisms in their speech. (Unless they're Republicans, then it's OK.)
