If you want to get some idea about why President Obama has not formulated a strategy for defeating ISIS, take a look at . . . Thursday.
Yes, Thursday.
On Wednesday night, reporters were given Obama’s Thursday schedule. It did not mention a meeting between Obama and his national security advisors.
Just before 10:00 am, we received word that he would convene a meeting with the National Security Council at 4:00 pm sharp. It sounded portentous. Such meetings aren’t normally scheduled so hastily or announced to reporters.
Then, at about 1:45 pm, 45 minutes after the daily briefing was supposed to have started, reporters were alerted that White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest would instead brief at 4:00 pm.
Now, that sounded a little weird, since it would occur at the same time as what seemed like an important national security meeting, about which reporters would be dying for information. Why not brief at 5:30? But, whatever.
Then, at 3:30 pm, we were informed Obama would make a statement at 4:00, followed by Act 2, which would be Earnest at 4:10 pm.
But wait a second, wasn’t Obama supposed to be in a meeting at 4:00 pm? And why would he be making a statement before entering this critical meeting. Maybe he would be saying, I’m about to have a meeting, and gosh, I’m super excited!
At 4:09 pm – just nine minutes late, very prompt for Obama - the president popped up in the briefing room to make a statement about an economic report nobody was paying attention to and to say some other things that weren’t news. Then he started taking questions.
OBAMA WAS GOING TO DO THE BRIEFING HIMSELF! Hurray!
Once he was offstage, we received official word that the Josh Earnest had indeed been pulled.
I think you get the point by now. The White House, where the president rolls into work mid-morning, where everything starts late, and where schedules are sort just suggestions, is a disorganized mess.
And that’s why there’s no ISIS policy, even though the administration claims to have been aware of the threat for a year.
Obama has addressed the beheading issue. He always beheading to the golf course.
this is all al-taqiyaa on obama’s part.
“Let the Wookie win.”
It’s hard to have a strategy when every element of the strategy goes against obama core fundamental ideology....
Hates the military...
Depises american exceptionism...
Has an affinity for Islam...
His core base, progressives hate projecting american power...
I could go on.....
Wow....obama was only nine minutes late for a presser...
That itself should be headline news....
Obama’s brain was fried by drugs, long ago.
In his “Dreams” book, Obama proudly admitted to his youthful “enthusiastic use of drugs.”
Simple words such as “to” and “people” are pronounced “tuh” and “folks” respectively.
Obama has spoken no ideas that will be retained in the history of great speeches.
Obama’s public speaking is restricted to a carefully controlled audience where the act of BOOing is forcefully prohibited.
Obama’s brain is useless without a teleprompter to keep him on a topic.
Without a teleprompter, Obama play-acts out a “Devil made me do that,” shuffle and jive Role in a fake Southern accent.
Without an advisor to tell him what to do, Obama is terrified to “go it alone.”
Obama’s lack of a strong Foreign Policy advisor accounts for Obama’s obvious mental confusion in Foreign Policy and Military matters.
Obama follows orders from his advisors domestically, and thus has no problem “going it alone” domestically because his top aides tell him what to do, and then defend Obama flawlessly.
Obama chose, at the request of his advisors to negotiate with terrorists with the deal he made to release the GITMO FIVE in order to beef up ISIS at an opportune time for them.
Without Valerie Jarrett to write Obama’s speeches, and tell Obama what to do, the drugged stupor that Obama was in during his 2012 TV Denver Debate with Romney would be a monthly drug stupor spectacle.
As Obama’s fragile administration continues to fail, Obama is sent out of the Oval Office more frequently to perform simple tasks, such as Shuffle and Jive Role speeches at controlled rallies or controlled Democrat Donation functions. or Golf games with a tightly controlled guest list.
Obama’s recent admission that after 5.5 years of on-the-job-training to be the Commander in Chief, he still does not have a strategy for America’s number one enemy since 9-11-2001: Militant Muslims.
This was exactly what Obama’s advisors have tried so hard to avoid: showing the American Public that Obama does not have the mental capacity to be the Commander in Chief of the United States Military.
Obama will resign ONLY if Harry Reid tells Valerie Jarrett that Obama must resign for the good of the Democrat Party.
What is good for the Country is of NO concern to Reid or Jarrett.
Post of the day!
Not after you color them in.
The U.S. Treasury should coin Obama’s image.
It would be a stimulus coin and quite possibly the best investment anyone could make because, as every collector knows coins with a mistake on them are more valuable.
Did Chuck Hagel inherit the sobriquet after Biden became VP?
He’ll never resign, he loves the perks of the job too much. He’d have Valerie Jarrett bound, gagged and delivered to Fort Marcey Park first.
I don’t think Obama has any problem with ISIS in principle. After all, they claim to stand for Muslim values. He is happy to back the Muslim Brotherhood elsewhere. But ISIS has behaved in such an extreme fashion, even by Muslim standards, that they have created a PR problem. That’s what he is trying to deal with now, not the basic question of whether ISIS should be allowed to remain in control of a strategic section of the Middle East (which it hopes to expand).
That was cruelly funny
Obvously his handlers, the Shadow hierarchy of the Democrat Party haven’t instructed him to do anything beyond fundraising to use other peoples money, not theirs to keep their movement going.
Obama is treading water waiting for instruction from his masters.
> Do You Want to Know Why There’s No ISIS Strategy?
I already know. It’s because Obama is incompetent.
Ummm, I'm not so sure that would be a good idea with a good outcome...
I just finished it this afternoon. Frightening, especially with the people in power who are now in power.
Bttt
That's what I was thinking.
I can not help but think that as horrible as the China One-Child Policy is there are some people here who feel that is what we need here.
Barack H. Obama= Neville Chamberlain or he is a Muslim front man doing his job.
