Top Secret: Where McCain, Graham, And Feinstein Got Their ISIS Strategy From

Posted by | September 3, 2014 19:12 | Filed under: Contributors Opinion Politics Tommy Christopher Top Stories War & Peace


Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) made news over the weekend by becoming the latest member of the “Even Some Democrats” club that the mainstream press loves, telling NBC News‘ Andrea Mitchell that she thinks President Obama is being “too cautious” about the Islamic State, and that she agrees with Republican senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham on the strategy needed to deal with the IS crisis. Here at The Daily Banter, we’ve discovered the top secret source from which all three senators culled their brilliant plans.

The money quote from Feinstein’s Meet the Press interview is her assessment that the President is being “too cautious” about IS, which she actually said by way of compromise when Andrea Mitchell offered her the chance to call him weak.

But a few seconds earlier, Feinstein said she agreed with McCain and Graham, and joined Andrea Mitchell in confusion over President Obama’s statement, last week, “We don’t have a strategy yet.”

Mitchell asked Feinstein if the President was “wrong to signal indecision by saying that we still don’t have a strategy against ISIS,” and Feinstein accepts that premise, but says that this John Kerry chap has it all worked out:

“Well, in that same newspaper, down below the McCain op-ed is one by our secretary of State, John Kerry. And in that, he does in fact lay out a strategy, which begins next week at the NATO Conference, NATO Summit, talking with our NATO allies. The United States taking over the presidency of the Security Council in September. And the beginning of a strategy to put together a coalition of the willing, if you will.”

Yeah, let’go ahead with that “coalition of the willing.” That’s a winning political message for Middle East conflict. This is the worst branding since AYDS diet pills.

But okay, let’s get this straight now, Feinstein and Mitchell are saying that they can’t figure out why that loser Obama doesn’t have a strategy like McCain, Graham, and Kerry do. Here are the specifics of the McCain/Graham/Kerry/Feinstein strategy…READ MORE

    Thank God (and I mean that literally) that Americans had the wisdom to elect a calm-headed Obama rather than a hot-headed McCain.
