The professor misjudges:
...Foreigners will no longer know when and whether to take anything this
President says as representing American policy rather than his own
editorial opinions. We hate to say it, but that is so dangerous that
there’s a strong argument for Congress to back the Syria resolution
simply to avoid trashing the credibility of the only President we’ve
got.--quoted at The Other McCain
What Mead is really saying is that Putin (and PRC, and others) are really quite stupid.
They're not.
They're doing to Obozo exactly what Boehner should have been doing years ago: slapping him across the chops.

Poll: Majority Of Americans Approve Of Sending Congress To Syria:
Poll: Majority Of Americans Approve Of Sending Congress To Syria
Excerpt:
"...
A majority of U.S. citizens believe congressional leaders in both the House and Senate must be sent to war-torn Syria immediately.
WASHINGTON—As President Obama continues to push for a plan of limited military intervention in Syria, a new poll of Americans has found that though the nation remains wary over the prospect of becoming involved in another Middle Eastern war, the vast majority of U.S. citizens strongly approve of sending Congress to Syria.
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 believe it is in the best interest of the United States, and the global community as a whole, to move forward with the deployment of all U.S. congressional leaders to Syria immediately,” respondent Carol Abare, 50, said in the nationwide telephone survey, echoing the thoughts of an estimated 9 in 10 Americans who said they “strongly support” any plan of action that involves putting the U.S. House and Senate on the ground in the war-torn Middle Eastern state. “With violence intensifying every day, now is absolutely the right moment—the perfect moment, really—for the United States to send our legislators to the region.”
“In fact, my preference would have been for Congress to be deployed months ago,” she added.
Citing overwhelming support from the international community—including that of the Arab League, Turkey, and France, as well as Great Britain, Iraq, Iran, Russia, Japan, Mexico, China, and Canada, all of whom are reported to be unilaterally in favor of sending the U.S. Congress to Syria—the majority of survey respondents said they believe the United States should refocus its entire approach to Syria’s civil war on the ground deployment of U.S. senators and representatives, regardless of whether the Assad regime used chemical weapons or not.
In fact, 91 percent of those surveyed agreed that the active use of sarin gas attacks by the Syrian government would, if anything, only increase poll respondents’ desire to send Congress to Syria.
Public opinion was essentially unchanged when survey respondents were
asked about a broader range of attacks, with more than 79 percent of Americans saying they would strongly support sending Congress to Syria in cases of bomb and missile attacks, 78 percent supporting intervention in cases of kidnappings and executions, and 75 percent saying representatives should be deployed in cases where government forces were found to have used torture..."
Drone Hunters Lining Up And Paying Out In Colorado
Deer Trail, Colorado hasn’t yet voted on whether or not is will let residents hunt unmanned aircraft – FAA has warned such activity would be illegal.
By Layer 8 on Thu, 09/05/13 - 3:01pm.
What might have started out a whimsical protest against government surveillance tactics has morphed into a little more than that as a small town in Colorado has found itself overwhelmed with requests and cash for a unmanned aircraft hunting license that doesn't exist - yet.
In June a resident of Deer Trail, Colorado proposed a town wide ordinance that would offer $25 licenses to hunt and shoot down government drones if they flew within 1,000 feet above private property -- with a $100 bounty if one actually got shot down.
The Denver Post this week reported the town's clerk Kim Oldfield stopped counting the flood of requests for the licenses two weeks ago when the tally of personal checks made out to the town hit 983 [Deer Trails' own population is about 560] and $19,006. The checks came from all over the U.S. Oldfield said.
Oldfield went on to say she returned as many of the checks as she could before the work became overwhelming. "I'm still getting the letters," she said. "I'm just throwing them in a big pile."
Deer Trail residents don't actually vote on the ordinance until Oct. 8, though the Denver Post reported that the town's board had a chance to approve the license ordinance last month but deadlocked 3-3.
As you might expect the Federal Aviation Administration hasn't taken too kindly to the Deer Trail idea. In July it said anyone who fire guns at drones is endangering the public and property and could be prosecuted or fined.
The AP reported that the FAA said: A drone "hit by gunfire could crash, causing damage to persons or property on the ground, or it could collide with other objects in the air," the statement said. "Shooting at an unmanned aircraft could result in criminal or civil liability, just as would firing at a manned airplane."
