Readers may remember far-left commie-loving Professor Robert Farley from a few years back, "
Patterson School of Diplomacy, University of Kentucky, Screens Steven Soderbergh's Che to Commemorate Fiftieth Anniversary of Bay of Pigs."
It should be no surprise then that this anti-American hack is posting tripe like this:

Turns out the Idiot Farley's taking a pathetic swing at the WSJ editorial I posted this morning, "
Fall of Mosul: Strategic Disaster Assisted by Obama's Withdrawal From Iraq." And he writes:
Long story short, the central takeaway of the WSJ piece is the effort to pass off the continued disaster of Iraq to Barack Obama, one of the only people in US politics who bears virtually no responsibility for the disaster in Iraq.
Actually, as Iraq crumbles to ISIS before our very eyes, it's Obama --- as our so-called commander-in-chief --- who bears more responsibility for this "disaster" than anyone else in the U.S. How could it be otherwise? It's been almost six years since Bush left office. Democrats in Congress, including Hillary Clinton, voted for the 2002 Resolution on the Use of Military Force in Iraq. A bipartisan war at the start, Democrats stabbed American troops in the back even before election 2004 (and the nomination of medal-throwing, unfit-for-command Hanoi John Kerry).
And it was President Obama who pulled U.S. forces from Iraq in 2011, treasonously failing to secure a residual agreement for
a U.S. status-of-forces deployment.
The current Democrat-caused deterioration in Iraq was only a matter of time, as reported at this update, "
Tikrit Falls as Islamic State in Iraq and Syria Sweeps Toward Baghdad!"
More at Pajamas Media, "
Terrorists Take Tikrit. Will Baghdad Fall?", and the Guardian UK, "
Iraq army capitulates to Isis militants in four cities."
ISIS partisans on Twitter have no doubt of Iraq's coming fall:
More, from Michael Knights, at Foreign Policy, "
Iraq War III Has Now Begun":
The Obama administration is determined to honor its campaign pledge to end the wars. To that end, the White House withdrew U.S. combat troops in 2011. However there is an increasingly strong case that Iraq needs new and boosted security assistance, including air strikes and a massively boosted security cooperation initiative to rebuild the shattered army and mentor it in combat. The Middle East could see the collapse of state stability in a cross-sectarian, multiethnic country of 35 million people that borders many of the region's most important states and is the world's fastest-growing oil exporter. Any other country with the same importance and the same grievous challenges would get more U.S. support, but the withdrawal pledge has put Iraq in a special category all on its own. Washington doesn't have the luxury of treating Iraq as a special case anymore. ISIS has moved on since the days of the U.S. occupation and they have a plan. Washington should too.
Well, you would think.
Sad. President Obama threw away the the gains of the Bush-Petraeus surge, pissed on the sacrifices of America's fallen, and tossed the Iraqi people under the bus.
I suspect the folks at
the Patterson School will be cheering the ISIS victory, most of all Professor Robert "Che" Farley.
