OBAMA TO TAKE CROSSTOWN CAR TRIP!! – AT 10:38 A.M. ET:  Our dynamic leader, Field Marshal Barack Obama, will risk it all in a hazardous crosstown car trip to the Pentagon to take personal command of the nation's destiny.  There's Mount Rushmore talk.  From The Hill:

President Obama is making a rare trip to the Pentagon on Monday, to meet with his top national security advisers to discuss the fight against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

But don't expect any serious reevaluation of the current strategy against ISIS, the White House said Friday.

"At this point ... it is an update," White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest told reporters.

However, the last time the president went to get such an update at the Pentagon in July, it led to a decision to send about 50 U.S. special operations forces into Syria, among other steps to intensify the campaign.

During that meeting, the president "reaffirmed to all of us in the room that he was willing to hear all options of doing more in Iraq and Syria, as long as they would produce strategic success not just tactical success," a senior defense official told Pentagon reporters during a background briefing on Oct. 30, after the White House announced the new steps.

COMMENT:   There is really no strategy for success, and even Obama's own hand-picked military leaders are expressing deep concern over our non-course.  Should there be another attack here, Obama's first response will be 1) to warn Americans about stereotyping and 2) to see it as another opportunity to push gun control.
