Obamas Plan

http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/senate-expected-to-give-approval-to-obamas-plan-to-fight-islamist-militants/2014/09/18/f7fc229e-3f3e-11e4-9587-5dafd96295f0_story.html

Senate Approves Obamas Plan

Recently, and rather quickly, the senate approved obamas four point plan. This includes air strikes in Syria and Iraq and sending 475 troops to train Syrian rebels. But this wasn't approved overwhelmingly in his favor. Many members disagree with his plan and are against it. In the six years that Obama has served as president, any plan that he has proposed has never been approved this quickly. I think this is due to the fact that everyone is afraid. Everyone doesn't know what to predict. No one is really sure how far ISIS will go. They all want something done, and something done fast. If it can protect us in any way, they want it carried out. I think that we shouldn't get involved at all. If we drop bombs over there, it just gives them an excuse to bomb us back. We will eventually start something that we can't pull ourselves out of.
