HAve you noticed the number of Obama spokeswhores from the State Dept. and the NSC?
All incompetent; all losers; all should be jailed.
I’m more concerned with the U.S. quality equipment theses terrorist have. If nothing else blow as much of that up as you can. That stuff is going to haunt us for generations just like the Iranian f14s and missiles.
