The left, in a manner of speaking, figures that flicking drops of water at your enemy wins, with minimal losses. In fact, if you looked at the death toll in America, the dead Libyan ambassador, and more, you see that Clinton, Bush II, and so on never really did a full job at beating Iraq, Iran, and the Taliban. Then there’s the problem of ground troops somehow being hours away from Benghazi, where’s the Marines or Navy SEALS to launch from a carrier? Or how about airborne SERE or Rangers from our Air Force bases? The military is a mess, an frankly, if it takes a war hawk to properly command it, so be it.
Air power alone doesn’t win; something that Clinton and Obama don’t seem to recognize.
