Perhaps they believe their ass has healed from the last three times it was kicked.
This is a first-rate foreign policy disaster on a par with Carter and Iran. Meanwhile Hillary is still driving the State Department clown car around the tent beeping her own horn incessantly and 0bama is threatening to dislocate his shoulder patting himself on the back for the ludicrously termed Arab Spring. U.S. interests lost in Libya, Egypt, and now look to make it a trifecta in Syria. If there is a worse way to screw up U.S. foreign policy I don't know it, but I have faith they'll find it.
