President Obama took to the podium this evening to play his part in the repeat of history. It was the Democrats who abandoned South Vietnam and allowed the mass murder known as the killing fields of Pol Pot. And so here we are again as Democrats ran on an anti-war promise which created a vacuum in Iraq. I applaud the humanitarian airdrop for the besieged Yazidi and Christian minorities trapped in the mountains vicinity of Sinjar, Iraq. However, to not immediately strike ISIS when they must move by way of a very few road networks in open desert is insane. If we only drop food and water, then all we enabled is for these people to be slaughtered nourished with a full stomach. Based on Obamas speech, hes not attacking ISIS, nor is he arming the Kurds. Hes sitting back and waiting for ISIS to march on Irbil or Baghdad. The time to stop ISIS is now and begin to push them back -- not wait. This is not about campaign promises, it is about destruction of ISIS. I can assure you they will not stop their onslaught. Obamas duplicitous hypocrisy was evident once again. He started talking tough but then backed down to appease his liberal progressive base. Again and again Obama fails to acknowledge the enemy has a vote. As well, he fails to realize talking too much waters down your message -- and dilutes your intent. ISIS doesnt care about our diplomacy and economy. It was a strong start from Obama, but a weak finish, and I fear its about to get very bloody.
