And your solution would be what - the 101st Airborne Division dropped into Syria?

I have stated several times what needs to be done. I've also stated this is not just a US Problem to be dealt with alone.

Don't you know, Supreme Feline, that everything is Obama's fault! The Black Plague, the sinking of the Maine, the Great Depression - you name it and the Marxist/Terrorist/Kenyan/Traitor/Anti-Christ (take your pick) is to blame. Simplifies things a lot, doesn't it?

The right wing hacks on this site are shameless.
 
Let me get this straight. Weren't a lot of people in and out of our government giving aid and comfort to bands like this at the start of the uprising in Syria?

Obama has been president for 6 years now. During his presidency, did he or did he not support terrorists and fundamentalist extremist groups in Egypt, Libya, and Syria? Has he not ignored at least a years worth of build up and intel on ISIS?

Funny how leftists have no problem blaming Bush for everything during his presidency, but when it comes to Obama...dood has ZERO responsibility...for ANYTHING.

Maybe Hillary shouldn't have come out with her book talking about BO winging it then. But then she did want to make it plain and simple. Hence it being in her book. Just sayin.

And the US State Department condemning the beheading gets in the way of this how? Or was it just an opportunity to take a cheap shot at the President?

Uhm, that meant they acknowledged the video. As earlier when it first came out. They said they were trying to authenticate it. :doh
 
VanceMack said:
Thats why it is so silly. You actually think that it would take an international incident for the President of the United States to make a phone call and have a Marine returned to the US. All you are really doing is affirming just how worthless this president has become.

Well, he could have agreed to supply terrorists in the Middle East with weapons so that hostages could be released...you know, like the sainted Reagan did. The same Reagan who turned tail and ran as soon as the Marine Barracks in Beirut was blown up. It's what I love about you right wingers - your total ignoring of historical facts you find inconvenient.

Who said it was bad.....when the post was put up it was after their first announcement. So it meant if they acknowledge the video. It was real. Otherwise they would not release remarks about condemning it.

So why is Diane Feinstein and Menendez saying they want the Terrorists Bombed, again?

Because Democrats on foreign policy don't march lock-step with the President.
Did you still want to try and put it all on the GOP?

Have you heard any praise from the GOP over the bombing of al Shabaab yet?
Or did you miss all those Articles of the Demos that want something done.

These Dems are as pathetic as GOPs who want intel BEFORE the President acts.
Ain't gonna happen any more.
Can't happen when they're on a 6-week vacation
Including BO reporting to the Senate and Intel Chairs.

You've proven nothing false--meaning you are lying.
I've proven that you refuse to give full stories--due to your hatred of BHO

.....they carried thru with the threat rather than chance of ransoming him. What say ye?


The Islamic State militant group released a video purporting to show the beheading of U.S. hostage Steven Sotloff, the SITE monitoring service reported on Tuesday.

A masked figure in the video also issued a threat against a British hostage, a man the group named as David Haines, and warned governments to back off “this evil alliance of America against the Islamic State”, the monitoring service said.

Why didn't he convert? That would have been a great decision for him. or was converting an option for him?
 
You're speaking, of course, about the leaked Hollywood starlet pics. I agree.


Wiggen said:
I think the President of the United States has more worthy causes than worrying about a Marine who either is the biggest idiot in the Marine Corps or is a man with absolutely no sense of direction. Either way, it's not the President's responsibility to rescue him. He didn't send him there.

Nice way of admitting that Demos are saying the same as the Repubs.

Now the tangential with Shabab and from deep left field.

Yes Feinstein made sure BO will follow the law going forward. Sometimes Democrats do happen to do the Right thing.

Try again Nimby and you have proved nothing but how not to read.....and how time just is never on your side. But eventually you will catch on. Not even Demo tactics of the best kind: like you tried here, can help you with me. Perhaps you should talk with Think Progress and Daily Kos for better tips. :lol:

ISIS cuts off the head of the first American and threatens to do it again if Obama continues to bomb them.
GOPs want them bombed.
Obama bombs ISIS last week and then tells congress yesterday.

Another American has his head cut off and they threaten to do it again if we bomb them again.
The GOPs want them bombed again.

Obama will bomb them again.
The third American will have her head cut off, if it already hasn't happened .

Sorry, " bombing them " minus a strategy ( he's had a good year to figure one out ) seems to be just pissing them off.

How a about a President who gives a rats ass, one who's not limited by a corrupt ideology

One who doesn't weigh every thing he does on the basis of will it benefit him and his party

A President who's QUALIFIED.

You might be one of the few on this board who doesn't think he has a strategy/policy.
You can bet the dead ISILs and dead Somalis know he has a strategy.

I sure as hell don't want to know his policy, nor do I want the idiots in both parties to know it,
BEFORE the fact, as we saw with Mosul, Amerili, and now Somalia.

Are you aware of how many American soldiers are in Iraq right now?
How long is the President allowed to do whatever he wants to do before Congress weighs in ?

You don't get credit for what the President is dpoing now MMC.
You get to find out when the Congressional Leaders do, AFTER thje fact .

Nothing tangential here--terrorists are terrorists--if BHO doesn't get them, you'll put up another dishonest thread .
 
Fenton said:
So...

A President who's QUALIFIED.
Click to expand...

to me, being qualified would be someone who

1) Served in the military
AND
2) Started and operated a business
AND
3) Had formal education and real life experience in the fields of economics and foreign affairs (BA/BS in econ, BS or Masters in business, BA/MA in international studies, Masters of International Business, etc, maybe held a position like ambassador or secretary of state)
AND
4) Held multiple terms in congress (preferably in both houses, for federal government experience and to learn how congress REALLY works), and was a Governor (for executive government experience)

Do you know anyone who fit's that description? I can't recall anyone like that running for POTUS in my lifetime. I'd even settle for three out of four.,
