John Iadarola, David Rubin, Jimmy Dore, and Desi Doyen hosting today.  President Obama has decided to get Congressional approval to intervene in Syria.  He explained his reasoning for doing this while opponents of his had multiple reasons to be upset about this decision.  Video of Rep Boehner fully supporting Obama’s decision to go through Congress and going into Syria. http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2013/09/02/2561371/congress-support-military-action-syria-thinkprogress-whip-count/

Member Thanks and #tytlive.  Rand Paul’s reasoning for being against intervening in Syria is because Assad has protected Christians and the rebels have attacked Christians.  Video of John McCain telling Fox&Friends’ Kilmeade that a Muslim saying Allahu Akbar is the same as saying Praise God and that he shouldn’t base his support on who yells the words.  A new NC law is frustrating police committed to destroying guns that they confiscate to get off of the streets.  The NRA is a part of this law that “saves” these guns, which end up back into the community.

More #tytlive comments.  Dennis Rodman has returned to N. Korea for a basketball league with Kim Jong Un, but spoke about how he thinks he can talk to Un about releasing journalist Kenneth Bae. http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2013/sep/03/dennis-rodman-north-korea-kim
