He just refuses to get it. President Whimpy just does not understand the magnitude of international geo-politics. He continues to believe that military issues are solvable with State Department negotiations, even if we have to compromise with our dreaded enemies in order to reach agreement. Now he ameliorates the crisis in Iraq with inadequate reinforcements, a promise that there will be no further "boots on the ground" troops, unless they are Iranian, which he seems comfortable with, even though Iran recently fought a war with Iraq over the right to the same territory, and a vague reference to possible Air Strikes, if targets can be selected safely.
Mr. Obama, catch a clue! The insurgents are at the gates of Bagdad, they've taken over an oil refinery that was supposed to be safe in Shia territory, and they're attacking the Kurdish territories to the north which protect the second largest oil fields in Iraq. What does it take for you to wake up and smell the coffee, and admit that keeping your foolish campaign promise to withdraw American troops from Iraq is not as important as putting down this al Quida led insurgency is. If you continue to do little, or nothing, as the insurgents are obviously expecting you will, they will soon be in control of all of the country, including the nearly one-trillion dollar infrastructure that we built there, and we will have financed their new base of operations from which they can plot their next "911" attack against us, funded by the fourth, or fifth largest oil reserves in the world.
