Murfreesboro, TN - Republican
4th district candidate Jim Tracy stated Wednesday that President
Obama’s lack of a strategic plan for military force in Syria should
result in a no vote.
“Based
on what I have seen, I do not believe the President has outlined a
compelling case or a coherent objective to Congress in his request for
authorization to use military force in Syria,” said Tracy.
“There
is no doubt the Assad regime’s willingness to use chemical weapons is
unacceptable and that his growing dependence on Iran is a threat to
stability in the Middle East. But President Obama’s weak and ineffective
approach over the last few years in this part of the world continues to
weaken our nation’s stature overseas,” said Tracy. “That weakened
stature is why Assad ignored President Obama in the first place. The
President “leads” from behind and when he inches toward action, he does
so without a clear sense of purpose or an attainable conclusion. This
administration, at this point in time, cannot be trusted with an
authorization of military force in Syria. Congress should reject the
President's ill-conceived, ill-timed request."
