I found this interesting as well. Apparently, the former Iranian president has acknowledged that the Syrain regime used chemical weapons:

Because they know things we don't know.
there is some reason they feel evidence will be missed due to the people who are NOW dead and initially survived the attack.
when your emergency treatment people have died you lose a shit load of evidence
does Iran benefit from Al Qaeda taking over Syria?
maybe I misread the news then, because I could almost believe that I heard Kerry say that there could be no doubt that Assad used chem weapons.
so you're going to be a partisan and claim that they were misunderstanding evidence in a way that pointed blame to Assad, not lying or trying to influence public opinion by mistating facts.Well, the degree of doubt that Assad used chemical weapons is a matter of opinion, not a statement of fact.

R in office, government is lying. D in office, government is not lying.
Is that about it?

This is more about the politics of Congressional approval but it sounds like Boehner has said he will support the action but won't take the lead on getting other Republicans to follow, that is Obama's job. Kind of an interesting stance from a Speaker.
Of course everything going on here is completely political.
what if the UN agrees that "ass sad" is responsible?
Kerry said it was undeniable. edit: check that... diff source said it was undeniable chem weapons used... high probability that it was Assad
up to this point I would have to agree with you, also with Obama knowingly helping al queda groups in Libya, and Egypt who is to say the rebels in league with al queda in syria didn't do this hoping America would jump in and weaken Government forces, I am not saying this is what happened just it may have.
if your goal is to NEVER allow people who are enemies with you to help you out of stupidity then you may have a point. That is not the goal of our foreign policy
