relentless': Obama vows to punish ISIS for beheading of American journalist James Foley who he said stood in 'stark contrast' to his 'cowardly killers'
Obama seemed to double down on attacking ISIS after a militant beheaded photojournalist James Foley in a shocking video ' One thing we can all agree on is a group like ISIL has no place in the 21st century,' a defiant Obama said
He played a round of golf immediately after delivering his remarks
Secretary of State John Kerry said Foley 'was brave and bold, and no masked coward can ever steal the legacy of this courageous American'
US Secret Service and UK intelligence are searching for Foley's executioner, who spoke with a British accent in the video
Nearly a dozen new airstrikes near the Mosul Dam came after gruesome video showed an ISIS militant cutting off photojournalist's head
ISIS threatened to kill a second American journalist if airstrikes continue President Obama spoke from his vacation on Martha's Vineyard White House has confirmed the footage is authentic His parents issued a statement stating their 'pride' in their son

I’ve heard the phrast talk is cheap. But Obama has made it appear to be darned right expensive before he became president.
The guy is a complete farce. And everybody knows it.
On June 4, 2009, “Obama” gave a speech in Cairo announcing major changes in US policy with regard to the Islamic world.
Has there EVER been a more catastrophic misreading of reality in US foreign affairs? Have the consequences of incompetence EVER been greater?
Note to ISIS...... we have more journalists that we can send..... for every 5, we will throw in a cabinet member for free :)
Or Obama could play hardball and suggest that he might impose some sort of limited sanctions, depending on ISIS recognizing Obama’s Syrian Red Line, as revised by Clinton, Putin and Kerry, of course.
Is this another of his “We will not rest.” statements? This issue is soooo important, that he immediately went back to playing golf.
“Now excuse me, its tee time”
Yeh Barry you were relentless in having our military withdraw completely from Iraq against the advice of the generals. The Community Disorganizer knows best. Wrong once again king Zero.
WE ARE APPALLED..GET MY CLUBS !
Back in 2007, George W. Bush, described by the left as a cowboy who was too stupid to understand foreign policy, said this:
“I know some in Washington would like us to start leaving Iraq now. To begin withdrawing before our commanders tell us we are ready would be dangerous for Iraq, for the region, and for the United States. It would mean surrendering the future of Iraq to al Qaeda. It would mean that we’d be risking mass killings on a horrific scale. It would mean we’d allow the terrorists to establish a safe haven in Iraq to replace the one they lost in Afghanistan. It would mean increasing the probability that American troops would have to return at some later date to confront an enemy that is even more dangerous.”

Strong letter to follow delivered by hand from john f’n kohn-heinz-kerry the famous VN vet.
Then what does Bush do, he leaves.
>> Obama vows to punish ISIS for beheading of American journalist James Foley
Right.
They abuse and murder thousands and thousands of Christians? Hey, no big deal; why should we get involved in some other country’s religious struggle.
But one JOURNALIST??!? Now they got his ATTENTION! He LIKES journos! We can’t HAVE that going on!!!
Sorry bastard. Barack Obama is satan’s own spawn.
“He played a round of golf immediately after delivering his remarks”
The symbolism/messaging is profound. The words are obligatory, the intent to distance himself from their meaning ASAP, the message “go for it, guys.”
Explain that—Bush leaves? Not Iraq?
Obama is full of lying words. He is a disgrace, not only to Americans, but the entire human race.
He signed the SOFA Authorizing our withdrawal from Iraq.
