King 0bamamugabe knows that if 'HE' can save these girls, 'HE' will become the next Super Messiah and IDIOT AMERICA and the media will forget about ALL of the scandals ahead of the 2014 midterms. King Zero could care less about these girls.. THIS IS A POLITICAL DECISION!!

The King is on the hunt for the 'maximum political mileage maneuver' head of the 2014 election.

Oh, and.. WHAT ABOUT THE U.S. MARINE IN A MEXICAN PRISON???

Obama is such a fricking idiot, that he’d rather posture in public than actually save anybody’s life.

He just signed the death warrant for those girls.

The girls are from christian communities, not Muslim communities, why will they be “shunned”?

The fact is the world is a mess and we’re really starting to look a lot like Lucy and Ethel in the candy factory trying to fix it all.

If they let it be known that they're in Chad they want it to be known. That being the case, there's no reason to believe they're in Chad or that it's eighty guys unless they want Boko to be able to verify that much so they'll believe whatever else comes out.

Besides, it's a good bet they're coordinating with Israelis and French on the ground as well.

He heard about it on the news.

Either that, or he saw Moose's hashtag.

I hope these 80 aren’t ambushed.

They won't be just out in the countryside walking around, looking under bushes for them. That isn't the expertise they are bringing to the search.

Next he will give their exact locations. Some of them won’t survive the “rescue”.

WTF are “Our Girls”?

Just when you think they can’t be more arrogant.

He (Obama) just signed a death warrant for those girls

I've been a broken record about the situation of things these past few months. Nobody in gov has good instincts anymore for fast-moving events. The time to save those girls was before it was global news that they were gone. It could've been prevented....Nigeria had warning and prior abductions and murders of children. Now, the best thing might be vigilence in case kidnapped girls are seen in public.

Instead, Obama has been busy supporting the takeover of a basketball team by blacks and again arming terrorists in Syria.

Shouldn't we be asking if weapons given to terrorists the US supports are getting to these nutcases in Nigeria? Shouldn't we wonder how much of the Nigerian gov is corrupted by these terrorists being part of it? Otherwise, why wouldn't the Nigerian gov gone after them immediately?

I'm beyond disgusted.

Its like the whole Ukraine Russia thing. I had plenty of problems with Bush but I suspect he would have headed the mess off.

Bush would have been at the Olympics sitting right next to Putin and working on diplomatic solutions. Obama was in DC cowering under his desk whining about gay rights in Russia.

I’d like to know what type of military these folks are. The smart thing to do would be insert a couple of what used to be known as Green Beret A teams and let them whip those Christian villages I to some kind of shape. They specialize in working with indiginous people for counter insurgency and they are, or used to be, damned good at it.

About a week ago some villagers whacked about 40 of these nit jobs supposedly all by themselves. I’ve been wondering since then if we haven’t already got spec ops types working there nice and quiet like.

That’s OK by me; but that’s 80 more than were sent to Benghazi...

Actually it's not Ok by me, I'm tired of this poser putting Americans in harm's way whenever it will make him look good, the only difference here is that this time he put them in harms way against muslins to aid non muslins.
