Another Band-Aid

At first the President figured he could whip ISIS without putting a single foot soldier on the ground in Iraq. It didn’t work.

Then he figured he could whip ISIS with 300 foot soldiers he called advisors. That didn’t work either.

So last week, without fanfare, the Secretary of Defense announced he was sending 1,800 soldiers from the fabled 101st Airborne Division to Iraq.

Zero to 300 to 1,800 – it’s the same old story: Obama ignores the problem, Obama applies a Band-Aid, Obama applies a bigger Band-Aid.
