Illusions

There was ole Pat Caudell the pollster saying, ‘Obama’s bubble just burst,’ but he wasn’t talking about polls he was saying what burst (on the streets of Paris) was Obama’s illusion he was whipping ISIS.

But, then, the next day there was Obama standing at the microphone at the G-20 meeting talking about how ISIS’s the face of evil but still clinging steadfastly to his illusions, saying his strategy “just needs more time” to work and what mattered was accepting more Syrian refugees.

Folks used to say it’s not the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog – the roots of the President’s problem go deeper than his illusions: He lacks the will to fight.
