I agree that the entire free world must do battle with IS. But there are strategic reasons for doing that, not just the fact that they are subhuman crud buckets. Getting all worked up about their latest atrocity and using that as a casus beli is a good tactic, for that matter. You have to get the public behind a war, and waving a bloody shirt is one way to do it.
But what I can't stand is the sense that Captain Bass Ackwards Biden has just mounted his horse the wrong way and shouted "CHARGE!!!" without even putting his feet in the stirrups, and this is the first thought that Team Obama has had about war planning.
What's especially worrisome is that they've picked a murdered Jew's bloody shirt to wave around. When things go wrong in an ill-thought-out campaign, which is what this is looking like, guess whom the usual suspects will blame. Perhaps that's what they did plan on. They waited through the slaughter of the Christians, the Yazidis, and Foley, until they got a reversible victim; changes to member of scapegoat nation with the push of a button.

Is Biden being “Captain Badass” because he was told he is not running fro prez in 2016 and is wanting to puff himself up so that he appears viable by taking on a no brainer issue with great gusto????

Biden: We'll Follow IS to the Gates of HellRead that in context, "We'll Follow IS to the Gates of Hell because we created them".

What a stupid, nonsensical thing to say. Hes going to chase them to the gates of hell, then bring them back from hell to an American court?

As much of a buffoon Biden is, I’ll give him this: he’s the ONLY voice in this rancid administration to show any degree of passion about ISIS. Obama acted like he was in a choom stupor during that presser in Estonia yesterday.

Biden feels free to say anything he feels like, because he knows that he’s not the one in charge, and Obama won’t listen to him.

Hey Joe, when you catch up with ISIS at the Gates of Hell, do us a favor and put the pedal to the metal.

Biden: We'll Follow IS to the Gates of Hell That's the problem -- Democrats follow ISIS, and any other muslim terrorist group that threatens the USA and US citizens.
Democrats don't intend to fight them.

“Gates of Hell” would be our southern border, of which Obama has opened wide.

Joe is full of shiite.
He will follow ISIS to the gates of hell and then be rewarded with free admittance (and some new hair plug replacement surgery).

Hey Joe, When you get there, you all take two more steps and close the door behind you.
