On Tuesday night, the three major broadcast networks omitted from their coverage on the Islamic group ISIS a report that President Barack Obama has received briefings on the terrorist organization “for at least a year before the group seized large swaths of territory over the summer.”

ABC, CBS, and NBC all led their evening newscasts with multiple segments on the gruesome murder of American journalist Stephen Sotloff at the hands of ISIS in a propaganda video released on Tuesday afternoon. Over on the Fox News Channel (FNC), Special Report with Bret Baier aired three segments on the story, including a report from chief intelligence correspondent Catherine Herridge.

I saw a clip of his news conference today on Megan Kelly show. He truly looked and sounded like he was under duress while he was saying very meekly that we have to get ISIS. It was like someone was forcing him to say it and he was fighting it with all his being. He barely opened his mouth to speak and looked like he might cry. I thought it was very odd. He’s being blackmailed, that’s why he won’t do anything, I’d be willing to bet.

Gutsy call vs. Putzy call.

That’s a good take on it. He IS like ISIS in his thinking, and while he can’t behead anyone, he sics the IRS and the “Just Us” Dept, and OSHA and other depts. on his enemies.
