In December President Obama said, “For over a year, I have ordered our military to take thousands of air strikes against ISIL targets. I think it’s time for Congress to vote, to demonstrate that the American people are united and committed to this fight.”
Two senators, Republican Jeff Flake of Arizona and Democrat Tim Kaine of Virginia, have introduced a measure to support authorization of force. It has gotten nowhere. Rubio and Cruz have not supported it. Trump would rather insult Hillary Clinton than say something serious. Christie doesn’t know what ISIL is. It is so much easier to criticize the President than to step up and take some responsibility.
Sonny & Cher said it best--and the beat goes on.
