Scary Business


“The U.S. military campaign against Islamic militants in Syria is being designed to allow President Obama to exert a high degree of personal control over the campaign, going so far as to require that the military obtain presidential sign-off for any strike in Syrian territory,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

Obama is paranoid about this becoming another Iraqi war. Congress just approved a measure to arm Syrian rebels many of whom are the bad guys. Of course, most of our armaments eventually get into the hands of our enemies, even ISIS.  We armed the Iraqi army with high-tech American-made guns, artillery, tanks, and jeeps. Obama took our troops out and ISIS went in and took it all to use and to massacre innocents and behead children. Now we're going to bomb them along with all of our equipment that they stole worth multi-millions.

It's been reported that the two main factions of Syrian rebel units that are known to be Al Qaeda - Al Nusra Front and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant don't get along. So, we are going to arm Al Qaeda, an enemy?

And just think--Obama has his pen and his phone as he fights a brutal enemy from his golf cart.
