This is what happens when you ask a “community organizer” to do a president’s job:

Defense Secretary Ash Carter: We Might Be Going Back to Fight in Combat in Iraq Again (and Syria Too)

Obama fails. It’s what he does.

(Quick aside: Bob Dole disapproves of this use of the third-person to refer to oneself.)

Obama has once again proven the long-known wisdom — of which he was ignorant, and when it was told to him, he jeered at it, because it conflicted with his “new” thinking — that the surest way to waste men’s lives in pointless warfare is to adopt a craven, cowering position and invite aggression.

All hail the Eternal Failure and Bringer of Destruction, Nobel Peace Prize Winner Barack Obama.

They are resorting to Orwellian double-speak to not call it combat, because, of course, Obama declared the end of combat action in Iraq, and Obama is a vain and weak man who mistakes himself for a god.

So they’re calling it “direct action on the ground.”
