Although I support President Obama's approach to the ISIS situation, one piece of the puzzle does not seem to fit, and it makes me uneasy. So here it is: Why would ISIS actually want to get the USA even more involved in its war to take over the region?

Frank Ellsworth LockwoodIf you are on a “path to meet our creator,” you have missed the train. God is not the guy in the sky at the end of your life. God is life itself! You don’t have to wait to “meet the creator.” The creator is everywhere, all around us, in us, above us, below us and among us. Cheers.

Looking for a fight?

Inch-worm thinking (To my Green Party friends)
Please let’s stop thinking in either-or, all-or-nothing terms. We don’t win or lose, we progress or we recede. We gain in smaller or larger increments, and like the little green inch-worm who climbs to the highest limbs, we despise not the day of small things. #inchwormthinking #greenparty

On Sept. 11, 2014, Washington, D.C. - House Armed Services Committee Chairman Howard P. "Buck" McKeon (R-CA) presented his strategy to defeat the ISIL terrorist organization at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI). 
His remarks were just so off target.

A recent example of the kind of flagrant disrespect showed up in the title to Forbes' July 16, 2014 article: "Obama Administration Doesn't Seem to Understand Tax Inversions As It Tries to Stop Them."

It is one thing to disagree with the President, or to seek to inform him of another aspect of an issue, but it is altogether another to try to speak down to him, as if the author were a parent and our President a child. This long into the President's administration, people like Tim Worstall should be realizing that this President's thinking is usually one step ahead of the opposition, and that he "understands" a  whole lot more than he has been given credit for.

But what ever happened to respect? Personally, I am tiring of the arrogant attitude that is displayed regularly on the part of President Obama's critics. We are way past the time that they started giving him some of the credit for his keen intellect that he truly deserves.
