A Cold-Hearted Bastard

The press has been having a field day with the president golfing after delivering remarks on the execution of journalist James Foley by the ISIL. Doesn't he have any feelings!!???!! I suppose if I were advising the president I would have suggested some quiet time with his family...perhaps reading a book.

Yet his golfing and laughing with friends, not giving in to their demands for cash as EU nations do, and continuing to bomb the crap out of ISIL positions in northern Iraq completely decimates the idea that he is weak. In fact, he looks pretty much like he is a cold-hearted bastard.

What sort of a message does that send to ISIL?

Funny how you are more concerned about Obama and his political opponents than with Foley and his family.

Well, no, it isn't all that funny.

No double-standards in play, either, vice anything Bush did. Nope, no double-standards at all.

Bombing the crap out of translates to 'pinprick raids', by the way. A couple of bombs here, a handful there, a missile or two on one day, and so forth. Nothing that could remotely be classified as 'bombing the crap out of'. B-52 Arc Light strikes, or MOAB drops, or what the Navy used to call Alpha strikes would qualify. Not what's been going on, though.
