President Obama to Address ISIS Strategy in Speech WASHINGTON — Sep 6, 2014 By JONATHAN KARL

President Obama will give a speech next week outlining his strategy for taking on the threat posed by ISIS, ABC News has learned.

The president will use the speech to outline the nature of the threat -- serious, but not an imminent threat to the homeland -- and the strategy for confronting it.

It is not expected that he will make any major new announcements such as a decision on Syria air strikes, but he will describe the efforts he is already taking, including air strikes in Iraq and building an international coalition.

In other words, the president wants to leave no doubt he does in fact have a strategy for taking on ISIS despite his words two weeks ago -- "We don't have a strategy yet" -- when asked about taking on ISIS in Syria.

“It is not expected that he will make any major new announcements...”

It would be an upset if he ever does. Every appearance he makes is solely on behalf of his own narcissism and nothing more.

Very true. The TOTUS keeps him in line and able to use Taqiyya more effectively.

Valery, remind your Boy to bring is fresh from the box, dry erase RED marker with him, so he can draw (and later erase) yet another faux RED LINE in the artificial sandbox. Bic and Crayola manufacture some excellent marking tools for the ‘dithering, indecisive student’ in us all.

WTF is this idiot trying to do, talk them to death?

This man is a useless ass moron.

And the fact that the GOP has been able to do NOTHING to impede this useless ass moron mans that the GOP is even more of a useless ass moron than Obama.

Our government serves no purpose at all.

So Obama was shamed into pretending that he has a strategy?

I doubt ISIS listens to his speeches.

So, when is this speech — next week — after 9/11 or some sort of incitement just before 9/11. Just go away.

Hussein Obama is in a difficult position. His true colors are showing more by the day.

0bama’s strategy:

1. Talk tough about bombing ISIS
2. Bomb bogus targets
3. Media to show devastating effects of action; 0bama has defeated ISIS. 0bama is hero before Nov. elections.
4. Keep supplying ISIS with weapons via covert intermediaries
5. ISIS gets into US thanks to open border and does a 9/11 or worse
6. More security is needed, suspension of civil rights, martial law in all but name.

I think 0bama’s strategy will be similar to F&F. Hopefully we can anticipate it and stop it in time.
