++John McCain started the morning off blasting President obama and calling for the removal of the entire National Security Council.
++Weirdly enough, Lindsey Graham who had actually sat through the entire classified briefing on Iraq wasn't so sure.
++President Obama said we would not be sending troops to Iraq. Although the idea is ludicrous when you consider we tore everything down or gave it to the Iraqis.
++Ayatollah Sistani through his spokesperson called on all Iraqis to take up arms. His concern is about the Shiite holy sites which he thinks are in danger.
++I received a long analysis from a Sunni sighting eyewitness accounts of how this is a genuine Sunni uprising against Baghdad and how once the army was expelled from different cities it was better.
++Iran sent in their Qods Brigade to fight ISIS. If President Obama comes to the aid of Baghdad, we will be allies with Iran. That actually happened shortly after 9-11.
++Andrew Sullivan at the Daily Dish has done an excellent job of parsing the strange possible alliances the United States might be making if President Obama actually got ensnared in the situation.
