“Obama will do what he always does; Wait until it’s too late and then make the wrong move.”

BUMP!

I’m a Vet and I can’t even IMAGINE the seething ANGER of the PARENTS that lost children in this war!!

Where are the USEFUL IDIOTS, ala Cindy Sheehan? Why on EARTH aren’t parents taking to the STREETS of America to protest this?

(Oh, they probably ARE - the Enemy Media just isn’t covering it! Grrrrr!)

Many things in our arsenal could make the lot of them past tense.

They operate will full confidence that we won’t use any of them.

And they’re right.

Obama is an idiot.

Can you imagine the outrage in the media, the code pikos, cindy sheehag, etc if GWB were in office and this was taking place after 12 years. I cannot even fathom the outrage and the calls for IMPEACHMENT would be on the House floor tomorrow morning (opps the Congress doesn't work on Fridays).

The Islamists rolling toward Baghdad, Russian tanks rolling into Ukraine, and Central America dumping its children on our southern border. Hello, is America home? The free world is putting out an APB for the Americans and nobody is answering. Pathetic!

When Obama debated Keyes on foreign policy in 2004, his main talking point was the glories of “soft power.”

Keyes responded with something like: “that’s like facing a bayonet with a wet spaghetti noodle.”

Well, here it is.

Who sells Toyotas to all the terrorists? Does Toyota have a travelling salesman?

I’d guess that Obama actually takes some pleasure in seeing Iraq fail. To him it’s a useful object lesson in the failure of US imperialism. Letting Iraq go up in flames is a way of chastening America for following a Republican to war. In fact, I even wouldn’t be surprised if it were his way of giving the finger to the British for their interventions in the ME early last century. I really feel like Obama is out to settle old scores on a nearly cosmic scale. It’s why he’s okay with, for example, turning Egypt over to Islamists. When it comes to foreign policy, Obama is basically a vengeful anti-colonialist, anti-Anglo-American Jacobin.

“Iran will fix it”

Report on 2:30am news said Iran will assist the Iraqi government, but didn’t say how.

And if he was asked this point blank, I imagine his answer would be, "I told you I was going to fundamentally change America. Didn't you read my book? It's what my father would have wanted!"

Exactly. We’re essentially being ruled by the ghost of Obama’s father.
