  3. The president's walk-back: A pink line over Damascus?

    WASHINGTON - You know you're in trouble when you can't even get your walk-back story straight.

    President Barack Obama painted himself into a corner last summer when he said Syrian President Bashar Assad's use of chemical weapons against rebel forces would be a "red line for us."

  7. Syria is still not our fight

    WASHINGTON -- President Obama is right to resist the mounting pressure for military intervention in Syria. Action by U.S. forces may or may not make the situation better -- but certainly could make things worse.
