These “feminists” are not serious people.

Did it cause the war in Syria?
This is so stupid to me, that the question isn’t even worth asking.
…was snatched by Obama from Bush’s victory.
I can’t imagine how bad the morale must be for those who fought to take back Anbar from Al Qaeda.
[Update a while later, from Long Beach]
If Ramadi is not recaptured, Sunni Iraq will have slipped to ISIS, and all the king’s horses and all the king’s men may never be able to put Iraq back together again. On the other hand, if the U.S. backs the militias’ advance, it may well be party to ethnic bloodshed that will put the killings after the fall of Tikrit to pale. Thus, even if the militas do retake Ramadi the methods they employ could so deeply antagonize the non-ISIS-supporting elements of the Sunni population as to have the same result: no more Iraq.
While publicly the Administration and the Pentagon have started to sound a bit like Baghdad Bob, Administration officials have anonymously begun voicing their unease with the situation, in one instance describing Ramadi as a “powder keg” noting that there is a potential for things to go “very, very badly.”
This is what happens when you put a “community organizer” in charge of…well…anything.
I’m going to stock up on the popcorn if Sid “Vicious” Blumenthal is going to testify before Trey Gowdy.

Rick Wilson explains the Clinton rules to the media:
Jesus, media. If you want to be humiliated and demeaned by a 70 year old harridan, go to a professional.
Read all.
Did the administration just pledge to help the Arabs in one?
Fortunately, this administration doesn’t generally keep its pledges.
“He’s so smart that he is not the least impressed by the conservative foreign policy establishment.
That’s what qualifies Ted Cruz for the presidency.”
Heh.
My thoughts on what he should have said, over @Ricochet.
Christians are fighting alongside Hezbollah to fight ISIS.
Well, it’s true that while Hezbollah does want an Islamic state, it hasn’t been murdering Christians, as far as I know.
Seems to be coddling dictators and cozying up to liberation theology.
I wonder if the cardinals expected this? They shouldn’t be surprised, give his history.
An atheist blogger hacked to death in Bangladesh.
Anyone who is not a Muslim (and many who are the wrong kind of Muslims) is a target.

Speech doesn’t justify killing people. Killing people justifies killing people, though.
Unfortunately, the FBI has an “interesting” response to threats against Pam Geller:
Pamela Geller told Fox News’ Sean Hannity that neither the Federal Bureau of Investigations or the Department of Homeland Security have yet to respond to her requests, now that she’s officially a target of the Islamic State.
This is an excellent opportunity to flush out the enemy. But this administration can’t admit that we have any enemies, other than domestic ones who want to reduce the size of government.
