USA Today – Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell broke ranks with congressional leaders Tuesday, saying he won’t support a military strike on Syria because there are no indications it would change conditions there — and could make them worse.
“This proposal just does not stand up,” a harshly critical McConnell said in Senate floor remarks, adding “I have never been an isolationist. And a vote against this resolution shouldn’t be confused by anyone as a turn in that direction.”
