Is our govt ready too commit long-term to this next campaign? Is this our 2nd or 3rd push into Iraq, pretty sure it's #3. I'm of the firm belief we either commit long-term or don't bother at all. We are either all in or not in at all. What are your thoughts? The liberals must be reeling from this latest news. Let's see if Congress approves this next budget extension....any guesses on the outcome? Care to post your guess...

I believe there's support for defeating ISIS in Congress and the White House, so there will be more money coming for that. That's a semi-educated guess.

Unfortunately there is only one way that will happen. Commitment and Long Haul. It will be costly in many ways.
