Sorry to break this up a bit, but I want to keep thoughts separate as they should be:
I prefer, as I always have, for congress to declare war. That is how it should be done.
Then you must be supremely disappointed in Obama right about now.
and not congress either for that matter, do not put everything to a vote and wait for approval.
Why not? Isn't that primarily how the founders set it up? Was the vote not meant to slow things down so that we as a people could make measured decisions? So that the power wasn't set up in one branch, or office for that matter, or even person? Instead, what we have today is Obama using the false premise of congress not doing anything, by having Harry Reid stop anything that doesn't match the agenda and then Obama is using his office to act unilaterally, and some say illegally, while the useful idiots in the masses, and media all blame it on the prior administration. It's a slick ruse, but a ruse none the less.
They are elected to act in our interest, but not to act as we vote from moment to moment.
The Constitution is clear on how power is delegated...
That said, much of the criticism he faces is exaggerated and often part of a misrepresentation.
I would say it is Obama, and his supporters that are the misrepresenting party here.
He is right to separate ISIS from Islam.
I don't think so. These people are adamant in their fervent belief.
He is right to put the threat in proper perspective.
"proper perspective" in minds like yours and Obama's is to wait and see if another mass casualty attack takes place, then commission a study of what went wrong, by then he'll be out of office...
And the people do want us back in Iraq.
Most people with any military experience at all knew that we shouldn't have pulled out.
But have no fear, another election cycle is around the corner. Choose wisely young padawan.
A demo started Vietnam, and now another demo is starting this war using the same template to start this one, and I see nothing has changed on how demo messes will be blamed on the next repub to take office.
We are not about to send American boys 9 or 10 thousand miles away from home to do what Asian boys ought to be doing for themselves.
