There is a GREAT comment from a reader below the Steyn article:
“The fact that he’s copying the predecessor whom he criticizes at every turn, and doing so with a tactic his party refused to support even when it was already in place, sends the distinct message that Obama doesn’t really know what he’s doing.”
“It’s a foray into unfamiliar tactics for Obama: doubling down with military force rather than trying to win people over with speeches and political maneuvering. The fact that the rest of his foreign policy is all words and little else reinforces this impression. Thuggish regimes like Ahmadinejad’s don’t respond to sunshine and daisies, but the American people made their choice when they elected Obama. Now we must all live with the consequences that will follow” .Gaunlion
