Obama got criticized for his comment where he said that the ISIS strategy is not finalized yet. After the Syria bombings last night, we once again saw the head fake he gave with that remark. Reminds me of that night where he was at the Washington correspondents' dinner while the Delta force was carrying out the raid to take out Osama.

I am now tempted to guess that his "no boots on the ground" is a head fake also.

Looks like if he loses the Senate, he will ignore the Congress altogether and go forward on his own and use his pen at the drop of a hat. Being a constitutional lawyer would also help him to function with executive orders.

What impressed me was that he formed a real coalition here unlike the one in Iraq. To get Arab nations to bomb Syria is a huge diplomatic success. I guess they are also supplying US with low cost oil for the US jets etc.
