Syria in a Parallel Universe

As this whole Syria stuff seems to be coming to a head – albeit as rapidly as a glacier surfing a sea of molasses – an odd thought occurred to me.

What would the pundits all be saying if Romney was President?

Now, my gut proclaims pretty confidently that all this is the result of Obama bloviating without a teleprompter (cf. “red line”). Not sure if Romney would have said such words in such a manner. But for the sake of argument, let’s just say he did.

Would everybody’s roles be reversed, then?

By “everybody,” I mean everybody on talk radio, everybody in the mainstream media, everybody on Capitol Hill.

The cynic in me (which grows stronger and more vociferous every day as we’re sentenced to now a fifth year of Hope and Change) says:

YES.

sigh …
