Obama always claims he found out about scandals from the "news". He only ramps up the fight against ISIS, when the media's reporting makes it obvious that the group is still a problem. So he has an obvious solution.
If the media would just stop covering ISIS, it wouldn't be a problem.
“The media needs to help in this,†he said, admitting that it has been a “difficult week,†with the threat posed by ISIS becoming a primary focus in the media.
“One of the things that has to happen is how we report on this has to maintain perspective, and not empower in any way these terrorist organizations or elevate them in ways that make it easier for them to recruit or make them stronger,†he said.
We shouldn't "focus" on ISIS. Instead let's call them a JV team and let them take over Iraq. That worked for Obama last time.
But then the media reports on Yazidi genocide and suddenly Obama looks stupid and has to pretend to bomb ISIS. Or ISIS massacres a whole bunch of people in Paris and then Americans start to be "afraid" and then Obama has to pretend to bomb ISIS some more.
Can't we all just pretend to agree that ISIS doesn't exist?
That means no reporting on ISIS. If you are about to be killed by ISIS, please don't call the police. That will just perpetuate the cycle of violence since we all know fighting terrorists, just creates more terrorists. And if we all commit to pretending ISIS doesn't exist, it'll instantly be defeated because its real motivation is to get Americans to hate Muslims. At least that's what the media says.
So boys and girls, close your eyes and repeat after me, "There's no ISIS, There's no ISIS, There's no ISIS."
But there's just one problem with Obama's plan. If the media stops reporting on ISIS and it carries out a terrorist attack in America, how will Obama ever find out it took place?
Certainly not from the intelligence analysts.
Analysts at U.S. Central Command were pressured to ease off negative assessments about the Islamic State threat and were even told in an email to “cut it out,†Fox News has learned – as an investigation expands into whether intelligence reports were altered to present a more positive picture.
Separately, a former Pentagon official told Fox News there apparently was an attempt to destroy the communications. The Pentagon official said the email warnings were "not well received" by the analysts.
Mr. Obama, if “See No Evil” where truly effective as you say it is, then you, Sir, would be invisible!
Obviously not only has the oresident been choomin’, he’s been shroomin’ too.
For later
“The MSM refused to address the jobless.......and voila! They refuse to report the economy and .....voila!
Must be the MSM is scared to defy theWon and talk about ISIS and the threat to America.”
Maybe we should all start hoping that the first ISIS attack on our shores will be the NY Times or one of the Alphabet Networks!
We are SO fortunate Obama was not president during Revolutionary War, Civil War, WWI, WWII...
If he were president during Civil War, as sissified as he is, and delusional, he wouldn’t be president! Catch 22
TED CRUZ FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!!!!
Identity Theft, Bank Robbery, Home Burglary, Car theft, Rape, Beatings, etc. wouldn’t be a problem if the media didn’t report on it all....
Obama is CrAzY
Now that is GOOD!
So if the media didn’t report on Hitler,.........oh nevermind....
C'mon Donald! This is right up your alley!
Interesting.
We've had two local TV stations that were pushing the muslim refugee narrative and they got bombarded with comments opposing this. Both stations took down their comments sections for those stories. It definitely is interesting and something strange is going on.

The Obamatollah would not have been a problem if the media DID some actual reporting on him!!!
It is all about the narrative. Truth is what you say it is.
*****************************************
That’s how he became a Community Organizer, IL State Senator, US Senator and POTUS.
It’s also why he had all of his birth records sealed in Kenya, his passport records showing he was Indonesian and his college records showing he was a foreign student. ...JMO
I think the only time Obama has told the truth was when he said he was going to fundamentally change the US. He has!
Our national debt wouldn’t be a problem if Obama and congress would just stop paying interest on borrowed money.....................Oh! Wait a minute?
Once they’re done bailing out the student loans, who bails out the bail-outters?
“OBAMA: ISIS WOULDN’T BE A PROBLEM IF MEDIA DIDN’T REPORT ON IT”
That’s because to him what ISIS is doing isn’t a problem.
The problem comes in when the news reports on it and people start asking question about what is going to be done about it.
The policy of ostrichism! What a wonderful “leaderâ€.
******************************
Just what he did at the press conference Tuesday with Hollande! .....He droned on about meaningless BS and sounded like the teacher in the Charlie Brown animations: Waaah, waaah, waaah. Then, instead sticking to the subject of islamic terrorism, he started talking about AGW (climate change in PC language). I think the Sec. Ser. and any loyal American in gov’t. service would agree that he’s the worst president in US history.
Has a STD’s like syphalis made him insane ?
Ignorance is bliss. What you don’t know will hurt you but the pain won’t last long.
If the media ( news print ) back in the 1800s didn’t report on black slavery I guess that wouldn’t have been a problem either.
