“Various Republicans and presidential candidates are being drawn by the logic of their criticism of Barack Obama into saying we should go back in with ground troops,” Will said on Fox News Sunday. “ISIS is a big problem for Barack Obama. The more they criticize him, it’s gonna be a big problem for Republicans, who will be challenged: if you will the end, you have to will the means to that end, and what are your means?”

Wallace said the Republicans in question, among them George Pataki, John McCain, and Lindsey Graham, weren’t talking about a “re-invasion,” just 10-20,000 more troops. Will said that was invasion enough.
