    White House cover-man Josh Earnest faces three very determined questioners who appear to have gotten a little weary of his incessant excuses and falsehoods.

    Jon Karl, Major Garrett and Ed Henry question Earnest as to whether or not the 40,000 people trapped by ISIS on an Iraqi mountaintop are going to be given humanitarian aid or are they simply going to be allowed to be slaughtered.

    Earnest repeatedly attempts to divert the attention to the need for a “coalition, unity government in Iraq,” an unlikely proposition long-term and an impossibility short-term. Earnest refuses to answer and continues to circle back, stating that the White House is monitoring things, keeping an eye on them, and concerned.

    I expect it is too little and too late!
