No, he isnt. Calm and focused is a better way. Meanwhile: Republicans consult with Cheney: As lawmakers prepare to weigh in on the president’s strategy, House Republicans will hear Wednesday morning from one of the architects of the Iraq War — former Vice President Dick Cheney. The 9 a.m. ET meeting is taking place at the Republican National Committee headquarters. The former vice president has been a loud critic of the president’s handling of foreign policy, including the threat posed by Islamic State extremists. In a Wall Street Journal op-ed published in June Cheney and his daughter, Liz, wrote: “Watching the black-clad ISIS jihadists take territory once secured by American blood is final proof, if any were needed, that America’s enemies are not ‘decimated.’ They are emboldened and on the march.” Some Republicans have called for a more hawkish approach by the president, and it appears he’s moving somewhat in that direction. But even if Republicans agree with the policy, getting them to express support for HIM is another thing altogether.
