Republicans have begun trying to claim they want the war and have wanted it for some time, but that the president has had no play or has waffled and failed to lead. I laugh at that absurdity.
How quickly they forget Pres. Obama wanted to go into Syria to fight Assad and when Congress begged for time to debate and vote on it the only result they could come to was to neither debate nor vote on it. And, in the end, the president didn't have authority to fight Assad or ISIS and now we still have both to deal with.
Republican revision of history isn't hard to refute, but I can imagine their followers who dislike Pres. Obama would gobble it up without hesitation. Suckers.
Now they're begging for all-out war against ISIS-ISIL with foot soldiers and the whole nine-yards. I guess they've forgotten the trillions of dollars of debt and the lack of public support for more war after the Bush wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the "war on terror".
I expect the president will fight ISIS-ISIL and continue to support the return of sound government to Syria and Republicans will continue to tell lies.
