Big Majority Want Congressional Approval on Syria

A new NBC News poll finds nearly 80% of Americans believe President Obama should receive congressional approval before using force in Syria.

Key findings: 50% believe the United States should not intervene in the wake of suspected chemical weapons attacks by Syrian President Bashar Assad. But the public is more supportive of military action when it’s limited to launching cruise missiles from U.S. naval ships – 50% favor that kind of intervention, while 44% oppose it.
