Too bad we don’t have a General Grant or a General Sherman (or a president who would send them) to go over there and lead a real fight against these ISIS lunatics.

I have a theory: we always hear that the majority of the American public is tired of war, and I believe that is true. But, I believe the reason is the way we have waged war, which has resulted in strung out conflicts with unnecessary casulaties. Starting in Viet Nam, the bureaucrats have set the rules of engagement (i.e., we have to be politically correct), instead of letting the military fight to win. And now, with a community organizer-in-chief who thinks we can talk our way out of every conflict and is terrified of making anyone mad, it's even worse. If we turned our military loose, ISIS would be WASWAS!
