I wonder what hole President Nero is on right now.
Whats funny is most of the left don't think these Terrorists are moving Westward. Yet Ansar al Sharia has sprung up from Yemen to Libya. Oh and now BO has put us back into Somalia. Go figure.
Either way.....I still think he should have looked into that camera and told that One Terrorist. With what you did.....Were coming for you. There is no place you can hide.
Sadly, the folks running the show have horrible memories. We treated AQ in the same fashion for decades and that certainly bit us in the butt. This scum needs to be wiped from the face of the planet.
Dubya created ISIS when he invaded Iraq. When Obama was a senator he said the invasion was wrong. Now that he's president he wants to escalate the conflict. Seems we have learned nothing from past mistakes because we keep making the same ones over and over again. Our government starts its own wars. And its killing Americans for nothing. :roll:
That "point" has been being made for five and a half years. It is not only antique but irrelevant as neither Bush nor his supporters have any say or control over what happens.
The constant harping on years old issues is divisive and plays into the hands of the most manipulative White House in the history of White Houses. You may not be partisan, but the results are the same.
It is part of the demonizing process, used so effectively in US politics being copied here by the Conservatives who, feeling threatened by a new, young, charming and bright Liberal leader are attacking him over the 1970's policies of his father, Pierre Elliot Trudeau.
He, as in Obama, is all about image. Here, where Ukraine is still headined over the Middle east, the notoriously left wing CBC News site has this buried under "World".
James Foley killing: ISIS remains 'long-term threat,' Chuck Hagel says - World - CBC News
Note the comments, virtually NO support for the US. That may be that Canada has had two journalists killed, one in Kandahar in the past five months. Canadians do not see it in the same, hysterical light as the lead of this US written piece with the lead:
Based on international news reports, and continued coverage across Canada, there is little international anger to be galvanized. Since we first heard of the beheading here, which I don't recall ever as a lead story, and the rather quick to the punch reaction of the White House I have questioned how serious this really is. Taking into consideration the Obama team is failing in numbers, facing its first ever uphill elections fight, I liken this to the "Teeny attack" idea for Syria and the international community that didn't exist, to the sudden and hell bent "The Calvary is coming, hold on" for some kidnapped girls, and wonder just how much the White House is blowing this out of proportion. With so many intelligence disasters from the Berlin Wall to Benghazi's "it was a spontaneous demonstration", one would be an idiot to believe the White House actually has a clue.
Heya F&L. :2wave: Yeah remember they were sending the Cavalry for the Girls that were taken in Nigeria by Boko Haram. Remember MO with her fake desperate cry and the hash-tag. You have to remember with Liberals and Progressives. Its not about end results. Its about their emotional intentions. Not to mention all that thinking they try to do for others.
So one or two. Basically Obama had support from the right in his abuse of the UN resolution to use force to protect the libyan civilians. Russia called it out immediately by pointing out that from the beginning, the targeting was consistent with "regime change" and is the precise reason why they denied the US from pulling the same stunt in Syria! Yes, Obama did follow in Bush's steps in regime change. And everybody keeps dismissing General Clark's declaration that the Pentagon has had plans for regime change in seven ME countries, yet its been accomplished in four and we're working on the fifth. The result has been vacuums that have given rise to terrorists throughout the ME. But you keep up your partisan finger pointing and blaming it all on the democrats and we can be assured more of the same!
I love you like a brother man, but I do wish you would stop referring to these vermin as "liberal"
I AM A LIBERAL, you know, individual and equal rights. Like that.
This is an ideology, as you point out, that is about feelings, using them to get deeper into the pockets of the nation. Faking them to make the suffering believe someone actually cares - where was all that deep, heartfelt, hash tag, hurt when 27 million Americans lost their plan?
To a Liberal, this **** is evil, satanic self aggrandizing off the backs of the vulnerable. All that moaning an gnashing of teeth was for ONE reason, the rest of the world had begun reporting the real truth about Ukraine and Crimea, the history and CIA involvement, and Obama needed something to take the heat off, so he sent in Michelle....made it a MOM thing.
Obamaphones win elections, but they end up hurting and making resentments of the ones to whom they were given. The "liberals" in the US allow no dignity, would rather offer a quick hand out than a hand up and spend more on getting elected each time than the entire food stamp budget.
Heya Monte. :2wave: Oh there is more than just one or two. Many of the Tea party Repubs have said the same. Correction.....the Russians didn't deny us from anything in Syria. That was our own that did such.
Yeah its not hard to figure out that Neo Cons all joined in.
Wow, just wow. What you offer is the no-win scenario. If Obama kills more terrorists with drones than Bush did, you argue he's wrong because he should have captured more. Undoubtably, if he captured more than Bush, he would have erred too, in your view.
Hey there MMC. :2wave: Correction, Russia AND China denied the US legal standing for use of force in Syria. Then, we lost the support of the UK. Furthermore, congress never approved anything, and still further, 70% of Americans said no. So Obama was denied on multiple fronts, but keep peddling that partisan bs.
Over one dead American. Who knew the risks going in?
One is one too many and they're telling us, just like al Qaeda did, that they're coming after us abroad or at home. The threat needs to neutralized.
Dubya created ISIS when he invaded Iraq.
Border needs to be sealed, or the threat will never go away.
Yes you are correct with the Security Council Vote and with the UN.....I meant they couldn't deny us from going in if we had chose to.
Well Americans are war weary. But then you do know who Played off of that. Which it wasn't the Republicans nor Bush. Nor Clinton. So Monte.....who does that leave?
One is one too many and they're telling us, just like al Qaeda did, that they're coming after us abroad or at home. The threat needs to neutralized.
No he didn't.
The whackadoodles in Syria created ISIS. They in turn recruited Iraqi Sunnis who were fed up with Maliki's treatment of them.

Seems we have learned nothing from past mistakes because we keep making the same ones over and over again. Our government starts its own wars. And its killing Americans for nothing. :roll:
US policy in the ME has emboldened AQ, then we worked with them in Libya to overthrow Gaddafi, and working toward the same end in Syria. Making a mess, causing the problems we have to then fight. Real sound.
Yes, I agree, if we wish to be belligerent, China and Russia likely wouldn't attempt to prevent it. On the latter, I have plenty of criticism for Obama, but Bush got this ball rolling and now a majority of Americans view both Iraq and Afghanistan as mistakes.
This shouldn't be on the US, all of Europe should be offering help. As of yet the biggest thing our prime minister has done is cut his tax paid holiday short. Hopefully MI5 are successful in finding the "Brit" and the rest of the beatles ( as they have been dubbed) and make sure they never enter a civillised country again.
