Strictly a political move. He really backed himself in a corner on this one. He thought probably the daffy duck was already done for when he opened his mouth 31 days ago and said daffy must go. Daffy turned it around, and the world watched, O-boy was golfing, playing bball, and getting ready for march madness. O, got his brackets filled out, and looked up to see the world looking down on him as a weak leader, or no leader at all. So, he's damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. Well he comes out give’s a weak Bush Saddam ultimatum for the cease fire or else, military action. Problem is it's too little too late: for 31 days he voted present and the tide changed. O just trying to save a little face since Daffy didn't go down quietly on his own.

The only dog we have in this hunt is in assisting our allies, and maybe getting some short lived appreciation from the Arab league before they go back to preaching hate America. I hope we don't end up risking our pilots, but I'm ok with drones & tomahawks bringing the rain down on Daffy.

Actually I think the only thing that spurred the dear leader into action (Valerie that is) is Hillary quitting the regime after the elections.

I agree fully with that. Not worth a single American or allied serviceman's life to usher in another regime that surely will be anti-American, anti-West.
