There's a foreign policy crisis out there in the great big world, and that means it's time for Sen. Lindsey Graham to take to Fox News and tell us just how imperiled we are. And so on Fox News Sunday, on Fox News, Sunday, Graham warned that President Obama had better get some troops on the ground and destroy ISIS "before we all get killed back here at home."
And yet Jon Stewart is strangely unterrified by Graham's dire warning of utter destruction -- possibly because for Lindsey Graham, the sky is falling every single day, and usually for several different reasons at once. And here we get the classic Daily Show montage, with clips of Graham promising total disaster caused by everything from an assault weapon ban to budget deficits. "For God's sake, I've seen chihuahuas in handbags who were less fretful and shaking." And Lindsey's been exactly this scared since 9/11/01 -- it's really quite impressive.
Watch. Enjoy.

<em>&ldquo;before we all get killed back here at home.&rdquo;</em>
Fighting Obamacare and GUNS! Everywhere makes that end result much more likely.
It&#039;s pretty apparent that there&#039;s no way in hell ISIS is going to be eliminated with a bombing campaign. We&#039;ll be playing Whack-a-Mole with Predator drones, for years (if not decades), same as in Pakistan and Yemen and Somalia.
There simply is no solution, until we figure out how to put a stop to the bullshit that sends young Muslims off on jihad in the first place.
