John Kerry: US Has Evidence Syrian Government Used Sarin Gas
President made a "courageous decision" to ask for a Congressional vote, the secretary of state said
Secretary of State John Kerry on Sunday defended President Obama's decision to seek congressional approval for a military strike in Syria, saying support from Capitol Hill and the public will give America the legitimacy of a "full-throated" response.
"Our country is much stronger when we act together," Kerry told "Fox News Sunday," one of the five major Sunday shows on which he appeared. "I think this is a smart decision by the president, a courageous decision."

I'm sure Kerry gave our dear leader a "full-throated" response.
