An
election is near; Democrats are on the ropes; Obama’s numbers are punk and
perhaps sinking; bombing ISIS polls well; and did I mention an election is
near? It does not take a political
scientist to predict what Obama will do in tonight’s speech. He will beat the war drums against
ISIS. He knows ISIS is rightly
hated, and that Americans tend to rally around their president against a hated
enemy. And Obama and Democrats
need all the political help they can get right about now.
Don’t
get me wrong. I think we should
bomb ISIS to Hell. But we should
also remember Obama’s past negligence concerning ISIS. So I present some brief reminders.
Obama
was warned a year ago that ISIS was a serious threat. His response?
…The president chose not
to act, the source said. Nor did he request additional information on
activities of ISIS including in his daily briefing.
And
since then (until recent days), he has done little except deride them as “JayVee”.
Obama
will surely try to distract from that.
He has already lied about that.
But he has already failed concerning ISIS. And we would be foolish to forget that.
