Saturday, Aug 31 - 3:15 p.m.

We learn this Saturday that President Obama made the decision only last night, and almost on the spur of the moment, to seek Congressional authority to bomb Syria.  Finally, we Americans - we citizens - we voters - have a modest chance to exercise democracy.  

A demonstration against war with Syria is going on right now in downtown Bellingham - and Riley Sweeney has it covered on his Political Junkie website.   Riley will no doubt cover this issue well.
