Hold up: Wolf Blitzer said THIS is the difference between Syria campaign and other wars?

As Twitchy reported, Team Obama has described last night’s strikes on Syria as “shock, without the awe.” But who needs awe when you’ve got … modesty?

Wolf Blitzer just now: this is a more 'modest' war compared to other recent wars. #syria

"Wolf, you've covered so many wars. Does this one feel different to you?" "This one feels more modest."

@jimgeraghty "Modesty is the best policy' so says the greatest military minds of history.

@jimgeraghty Ah yes, the classic 'modest' war. So modest that we have an enemy that mustn't be named Islamic.

@jimgeraghty Because MODESTY is what I look for in a war. What, do we blush when we drop bombs? Press is pathetic!
