The Onion Nails It

The Onion reports that a recent poll shows that 90% of the US public thinks it is a great idea to intervene in Syria, as long as the intervention is done by the US Congress.
The New York Times/CBS News poll showed that though just 1 in 4 Americans believe that the United States has a responsibility to intervene in the Syrian conflict, more than 90 percent of the public is convinced that putting all 535 representatives of the United States Congress on the ground in Syria—including Senate pro tempore Patrick Leahy, House Speaker John Boehner, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, and, in fact, all current members of the House and Senate—is the best course of action at this time.
I am among the 90%, although I would add that the congress should be accompanied by Barack Obama and his apparatchiks.
