Feinstein: Obama maybe ‘too cautious’ on ISIS, but plans are underway
- The Washington Times - ^ | Sunday, August 31, 2014 | Tom Howell Jr.

Posted on 08/31/2014 8:54:15 AM PDT by GonzoII

The chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee said Sunday that President Obama is notably cautious — “maybe, in this instance, too cautious” — but insisted the U.S. and its allies will coalesce behind a plan to beat back the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria before their well-funded sources take Baghdad.

She’s only a hawk if she can vote in a pork barrel project for her personal kickbacks.

Why, isis is almost as threatening as private gun owners. Now, how did my finger get inside this trigger guard? Probably because the the shoulder goes up thingy.

“but insisted the U.S. and its allies will coalesce behind a plan to beat back the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria before their well-funded sources take Baghdad.”

In other words, no one has bought a clue yet.

John Kerry has a plan.

Yes. His plan it to take credit for what Cameron is doing.

Kerry says he's cobbling together a coalition.

I think using the word 'cobbling' was a Freudian slip. The British are forming the coaltion, we are just joining it, in limited ways.

Obama is PROTECTIVE, as he was to the Cole Bombers,
as he was to the IS Generals, as he was to the IS Caliph,
as he is to Hamas, as he is to the Moslem Brotherhood,
as he is to N.Korea, Qatar, and Turkey.

Obama, the undocumented Moslem from Indonesia,
only hates America and Americans.

Yeah, somewhere her 4th husband (Tricky Dicky Blum) is preparing to “cut another fat hog” (or maybe it should be called “a white steak”).

"Obama, the undocumented Moslem..."

All becomes much clearer when you accept this fact.

Anyone in his right mind is a hawk on ISIS. They should be given the option of laying down their weapons and going home or dying in Syria or Iraq.

It’s going to be interesting (I’m sure the press will
swoon.) when what has really happened in the IS controlled
areas comes to light now that they’ve been pushed out.
