To personally I'm -- you I think it's time.
The day after aside at least the biggest fear I have -- -- -- the chemical weapons -- remember what happened living out all these weapons are all over the mideast.
What I'm saying is that when assigned -- we need an international coalition.
We'll be part of it to secure the ten or twelve weapons sites that have chemical weapons.
If we don't control the weapons those chemical weapons we're going to be in real trouble down the road we have in the country I think many have.
War fatigue again and so when you -- a thought -- boots on the ground in Syria I think.
Most people like -- glad I finally did it but here's what I hope we're not tired of defending ourselves against weapons of mass destruction.
There's no doubt chemical weapons exist in abundance in Syria to question for the American people in the world large.
-- gives those weapons Renaissance files radical -- -- we controlled on the make sure they don't get in the bad guy's hands to attack us or Israel the whole region in general.
I'm -- the -- -- -- so -- I'm sorry there sprained his breaking apart but we live in a world this very dangerous.
And -- with the people South Carolina public -- say.
-- war weary but trust me if we let these weapons given the radical Islamist -- will pay a price.
And the good news this weakens -- secure them with a very small footprint.
You should be an international footprint just on an American footprint do you have president -- -- said at least today in Israel about what's going on in Syria.
I think President Obama has mishandled Syria how would be -- When nations lead the Iranians believe we're serious.
About stopping their nuclear program on the -- -- -- 70000 some people.
The president Obama's change the Red Line with Syria three different times I think they did -- chemical weapons.
The president makes -- in this recent discussion yes I really believe the faster going to be born out that the chemical attack was.
Committed by the aside rate regime and president -- don't go down that road.
Well.
Now what do we do about it they did the president's policies in the mideast from the Ganassi to Syria to Iraq now Iran.
Are failing the regions on fire in -- power Israel.
I don't -- trust but verify when it came to Barack Obama few racy ads and Ghazi Abu and you have been -- pushing that issue for quite some time.
Tell me -- what he went to -- -- -- people to come forward and tell they're afraid to come forward lot of extra work for the government.
I want -- families know what happened and -- I want the American people know what happened on the ground.
We'll learn about pushing Susan Rice a story this was a spontaneous event caused by -- hateful video -- crumbled.
How wanna know what happened that night did they ask for help -- could advance.
From plot was no help provide but he.
-- -- you can ask the survivors and -- there to the extent that you get to know them and that's been an -- right -- named.
But the house represented using your party is in the majority and for whatever reason has an issue -- You know subpoenas for that information -- -- they -- issue subpoenas and -- people come.
-- believe the added to the house leadership is changing when it comes to being Ghazi they're gonna be more aggressive.
But you make a good point have written us CIA director -- secretary of state John Kerry provide the names of the survivors to the -- Inappropriate ways that we can interview them about what actually happened the story told by the White House after the attack is not.
-- -- -- your input and everybody writes letters -- tell letters never get answered unless you're in the majority party not enjoy a night out there you go in -- democratic.
Colleagues in the senate have shown no interest in getting to the bottom of the -- Gaza if this were bush should be all over at the one thing republic.
Republicans can do is she used as leverage they have in the house.
To subpoena the survivor so we'll find out what happened that night.
I guarantee the.
There are people warning to -- that are afraid to talk in a subpoena would make the difference I didn't do anything -- -- to house at all -- I'm -- -- with the house leadership tomorrow.
Hoping that they will take up to being Ghazi calls.
Look how far we've come from what the story was told pluses and -- look at what we found out -- -- on this show and other shows CBS and mainly socks.
The whole scenario told by the president of Susan Rice has just absolutely collapse and why hasn't the house leadership I have no idea.
Know a lot of them why the Republican house leadership hasn't been in my house colleagues please for god -- stepped up your game when it comes to Ben Ghazi.
He has tools that now have as a senator because I'm in the minority party.
Unfortunately Harry Reid is that what hasn't lifted a finger really to push.
The administration.
Look what we did on Iraq look what we did own interrogation techniques don't -- under the Bush Administration.
Kind of democratic senate skim this -- and a pass when it comes have been Gaza.
The house cannot give him a pass I can't tell speaker Boehner to.
Push for subpoenas -- speaker Boehner is very much in the mindset of trying to get to the bottom in -- But yes -- all heard speaker Boehner to use the powers of the house.
Not to chase -- could get to that the bottom line.
We have not heard from the people live through this debacle -- of their -- -- ground and I guarantee could have been good news story.
We heard from them the next day that we haven't heard from them for six months should make every American worried about what this administration's -- --
