Grimm changes his position on Syria strike
Democrats send out ‘flip-flop’ alert
As congress debates whether or not to take military action against Syria, President Barack Obama learned on Thursday that he can’t count on US Rep. Michael Grimm’s vote.
Grimm, a US marine veteran who served during the first Gulf War 20 years ago, announced on Sept. 5 that he had reversed his position on the idea of hitting Syria with missiles.
Grimm (R-C-Bay Ridge-Dyker Heights-Staten Island) said he had originally supported military action, but that now he is opposed to the idea.
