John Kerry, man of many faces, tries on
his Ronald Reagan mask;
Secretary of State John
Kerry said Wednesday that Washington would not stand by and watch while
the brutal extremists terrorizing Iraq continued to spread their "evil."....
The
secretary of state is on a tour of the Mideast designed to drum up
support for a coalition to combat ISIS, a group he described as the
"manifestation of evil.”
The new
coalition of the willing;
... "won’t just be bombs," but rather at a broader approach that could involve "nearly every country on Earth."
Who was that guy, back in 2006, telling everyone that if you didn't study hard,
you'd get stuck in Iraq? As
Mark Steyn put it back in 2006 (during Kerry's brief career as a stand-up comedian);
To be sure, like Kerry in
2004 deciding that the murderers and rapists were now his brave "band of
brothers," the left often discover a sudden enthusiasm for the previous
war once a new one's come along. Since Iraq, they've been all in favor
of Afghanistan, though back in the fall of 2001 they were convinced it
was a quagmire, graveyard of empire, unwinnable, another Vietnam, etc.
Oh, and they also discovered a belated enthusiasm for the first
President Bush's shrewd conduct of the 1991 Gulf War, though at the time
Kerry and most other Democrats voted against that one, too. In this
tedious shell game, no matter how frantically the left shuffles the
cups, you never find the one shriveled pea of The Military Intervention
We're Willing To Support When it Matters.
Can ISIS be nuanced to death?
