More ‘bumps’ on Obama’s road.

Shortly we will have Panetta saying condition ‘not optimal, Hillary ‘blood not on our hands’ [both she and Biden too busy dudging bullets].

But be thankful that OBL is dead and AQ on the run!!! you ungrateful crowd.

Is that 7 hostages killed in addition to the previous 30 or so hostages that were reportedly killed? If so, I guess the moral to the story is don’t get taken hostage in Algeria because if the hostage-takers don’t kill you then chances are good the rescuers will.

No connection with Benghazi, either. It’s just a workplace incident.

Why couldn’t the US have mounted a raid with our highly trained forces like Seal Team 6 or Delta Force instead of leaving the lives of US citizens in the hands of a bumbling Algerian security force? US citizens abroad are now prime targets since the terrorists know the US will do nothing. Another example of Obama’s indecision and leading from behind.

The final assault was happening too fast, no wonder we kept hearing Obama & Co begging more time for negotiation.

At least Obama was ‘saved’ from the humiliation (for US citiznes) of handing the blind sheik and the Pakistani over.

Has Obama commented on any of this?

Too busy trying to gun grab in US to comment...if he did comment, please let me know.

TIA.

Just keep trying to disarm American citizens by denying 2nd Amendment.

Let's go ahead and send the blind sheik home.......

infected with mono-gono-sypho clap that is infectious to Islamists and Islamists only. Include a load of infected bedbugs to go along for the ride.

It’s inaugeration weekend...parties galore for the first couple. Hillary can speak since she had lots of time off relaxing in the hospital.

Remember, our President deserves his lengthy vacations and parties as the work load has made him grey...

I was thinking of a homing beacon (like the one on Mellenium Falcon to track teh rebel base....)

When they have a huge celebration of his release, then Ka-Boom.

"Too bad the hostages did not have any sport/utility rifles! (aka assault weapons)"

Strap a ham on him and say if you want him, come get him.

If hams are outlawed, only the outlaws will have hams.

So some nut case kills 28 people and we must ban all in the country, but Islamic terrorists kidnap and kill 30 people and we do nothing?
