Obama’s ISIS response stirs Democratic angst about 2016

Democrats are increasingly fearful that President Obama’s handling of the threat from the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) is becoming a liability for their party.

Those fears have become more acute after Obama’s Sunday evening address from the Oval Office, where the president unveiled little by way of news or strategic shifts. “Weak and unclear,” Democratic strategist Hank Sheinkopf told The Hill, when asked for his reaction to Obama’s remarks. “What is the plan of action?”

Sheinkopf added that, at this point, “any rational person would worry about his legacy, and any rational Democrat would worry about the Democrats being injured in an electoral setting.”

This vulnerability is all the more frustrating to Democrats because at one point during Obama’s presidency — the period immediately following the operation that killed Osama bin Laden in 2011 — they believed that the party’s traditional disadvantage on issues of national security had been erased.

In a CNN/ORC poll shortly after the al Qaeda leader’s death, 65 percent of Americans approved of Obama’s handling of terrorism, against 34 percent who disapproved.

Sucks to be you, Democrats.

In typical DemocRat fashion, they're not concerned about what Obama's (mis)handling of the ISIS threat means to the American citizenry; they're only concerned about how it relates to their election prospects.

Which brings up another point - what do Fascists do with useful idiots when they're no longer "useful"?

Obama Granted Asylum to 500,000 Mostly Muslim Syrian Refugees some 2 years ago

Several high ranking Democratic officials were spotted leaving the famed Capitol Hill watering hole Tortilla Coast. On the menu, discussions of Obama’s decision to grant political asylum to 500,000 (mostly Muslim) Syrian refugees.

Following a report recently released from Amnesty International that Jordan had forcibly removed thousands of refugees to their home country, the Obama administration has decided to take action. “Amnesty is extremely concerned about this trend. While Jordan has made tremendous efforts to accommodate half a million refugees, and is facing pressures as a result, these do not justify such violations of international law,” says Amnestys Neil Sammonds, who worked on the report.

The UN has also released a report stating that Syrians in Jordan now account for 10 percent of the country’s total population and Jordans economy simply cannot support such a large influx of immigrants. Approximately 2 million Syrian refugees have fled to neighboring countries in the region including Jordan, Turkey, Iraq and Lebanon. According to the report, 6 million Syrians are in desperate need of help and 4 million have been displaced due to the ongoing Syrian civil war.

The Syrian civil war broke out on March 15, 2011 and nationwide demonstrations grew large by April 2011 as part of the protest movement known as the Arab Spring. The protesters demanded the immediate resignation of President Bahar al-Assad, whose family has been in power since 1971.

National Report confirmed that Obama will announce his intent to grant refugees immediate citizenship status under the guise of political asylum (which triggers hefty monthly SS checks).

Camps are being setup in rural areas across the US to temporarily house the refugees complete with FEMA housing, temporary Mosques and schools.

Odd...TX Gov Abbott and Sen Cruz are holding a presser, today, about his Terrorist Refugee Infiltration Prevention Act .... yet, under Abbott, it looks like more than 100 Syrian refugee camps have settled in TEXAS!!

Time for action...not more “Act” talk!!!

[tflabo]

The Western world has a whole bunch of stupids for leaders. Trying to placate the greater muslim world over how reasonable and generous/kind we westerners are by allowing in so many muslims. Idiots—
Here’s a question— are nations better off with more or less muslims in their populations? Anyone who gets that question wrong is a complete and blinded imbecile or a far leftist hack.

Obama at the UN: ‘The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam’.

[Scooter100]

So is this what the FEMA Camps were installed for....mass influx of refugees?

Islamic terrorists hit us and Obungled goes on TV to lecture us how to be more tolerant of their sacred good muslims.
“The Taliban is in the house”. oh yes...
