Each of those 37,000 troops have people back home who will be calling their congressman/woman.

"I have no idea what he will do."

You nailed in a nut shell there. And that is truly the SCARIEST part of all. Usually as POTUS' go we can believe that they think they would do what is in the best interest of our country and our allies but with Barry and his inexperience and the show of little loyalty to our allies of late we don't have a clue if he has our nation's best interests in mind or knows how to best defend our country if war breaks out.

With Obama's track record as of right now those that voted for him should be freaking out and going "what the hell have we done" crazy by now. The Political World Stage of War is not the place for one to be just cutting their teeth in strategic world politics in a time of crisis. Hopefully this clown will realize this see that he is in way over his head and step down before something really big and bad breaks out that he has no idea on how to handle.

Zero and nobody in his staff has any clue whatsoever on strategic warfare. Leave war to the generals.

I was thinking that South Korea should buy those Taiwanese HF-2E cruise missiles

Time to quit playing games with No. Korea and time to start sinking their subs.

The last time they killed an American soldier, Pres. Ford sent out a stupid show of B-52s and cut down a tree.

Big deal. The American soldier had his head nearly cut off by a No. Korean soldier using a shovel. And we did nothing.
