My guess is a bunch of deserted tents will be bombed this month. Followed by a tough guy -in- chief speech.
Exactly ... a chance in the run up to the general election to play commander in chief and get free air time while accomplishing nothing. See if he gets any bounce in the polls by blowing up a few tents in the desert?
“My guess is a bunch of deserted tents will be bombed this month. Followed by a tough guy -in- chief speech.”
That’s my bet. This is going to be a Clinton moment. Maybe we will blow up a rebel chemical weapons depot that was stolen from the Syrians.
“.... a bunch of deserted tents will be bombed later this month”
That reminds of a statement of Dubya’s...made shortly after 911 in 2001.....he made it in the Oval Office, and was referring to Willy Jeff Clinton’s feckless cruise missile diversions during the Lewinsky scandals..
“When I take action, I’m not going to fire a $2 million missile at a $10 empty tent and hit a camel in the butt. It’s going to be decisive.”
He was speaking to a group of Senators in the Oval Office two days after the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon.
It is one of my all time favorite Bushisms...
