The president's recent decision to destroy chemical weapons plants in Syria has revived efforts from lawmakers, such as Senator Tim Kaine, to roll back what he sees as the post-9/11 “blank check” for firing missiles in the war on terror. From Kaine’s talk Friday at the University of Virginia: For this U.S. Senator, any vote for military action is personal since his eldest son is deployed overseas with the Marines. “If I’m voting on that, I’m thinking about my kid, I’m thinking about his friends, I’m thinking about people he will know that will potentially be in harm’s way.”
