Fmr. NSA director: Airstrikes are like ‘casual sex’ – gratifying, with no commitment http://t.co/RyO8nUzOxP #TheLead

CNN’s Jake Tapper was referring to a quote from former director of both the CIA and the National Security Agency, Michael Hayden.
“The reliance on air power has all of the attraction of casual sex: It seems to offer gratification but with very little commitment,” Hayden said in a conference call, according to CNN. “We need to be wary of a strategy that puts emphasis on air power and air power alone.”
Fortunately, it’s not the kind of tweet that gets ignored on Twitter. Here are some of the best responses, both positive and negative:

@jaketapper Perhaps, but it’s still difficult to get around that “Walk of Shame.”
