“It maybe good for the U.S. administration to understand that the world does not stop turning and does not hold its breath while they do nothing....

President Barack Obama had a message for the thousands of minority Yazidis under siege...analysts remain skeptical that the U.S. can do much to help.....

Obama is a singularly unreliable ally. No one can trust him. No one.

A few analysts are beginning to see this truth.

But most of the media is still in the Obama Cult.

By the way, did any of you see the LAME video of the man-child on the phone??!! Shot through a window from outside, it REALLY REALLY looks like propaganda....appears to be shot by the regime and then released as "news", much like the Clown's "spur of the moment" walks around local D.C. parks to meet "normal folks".

2 x 500 lb laser bombs on mobile artillery......

Thats not even a fart in this shite storm, and Obazma is bragging about it?

Buahahahahahaha!

This is pap for the media. Obastma has no intention of influencing the conflict at all.He is totally unreliable, playing to his crowd as a mouth with no substance.Obafma essentially is a Muslim operative.

” Lockheed makes a gunship version of its C-130 Hercules transport. Used primarily on special ops missions, it’s called variously the “Spectre,” “Spooky,” or “Ghostrider,” and as recently argued on the pages of the Air Force Times, all three variants beat the smaller A-10 for “lethality.” Each carries a 105mm howitzer, twin 40mm cannon, and a 25mm Gatling gun capable of unloading 2,500 rounds per minute — a trifecta of terror for any opposing force.”

My idea of a plan for those bastards includes about a dozen of these flying non stop.

Is anybody supposed to be impressed with the effect of throwing a couple of rocks at a pack of wolves?

I believe your idea/concept of fighting the insurgent columns on display is the way to go until there is only dust and ruble on the roads.

Just two bombs, that’s an air attack! You must be kidding me right! Is that right? That’s all?

Turn them into puddles of goo, then airlift in herds of hogs to clean up the mess.

Show the Mudslime bastards their worst nightmare up close and personal.

This is going to be a classic case of “To little, to late” for us and “Firstest with the mostest” for ISIS.

I know many here (possibly rightfully) believe that the US has an obligation to continue to protect Iraq.

However, Obama technically ended war activities in Iraq some time ago. If if we disagree with their ending, they nevertheless have ended.

I believe that Obama is obligated to follow the terms of War Powers Act, and the reporting requirements that go with it.

THE US MILITARY IS NOT OBAMA’S PERSONNAL ARMED SERVICE

Just another example of never letting a crisis go to waste. The 50% of voters who support him still, are bound to be impressed, and that’s all that counts.

Might as well have been a couple of cruise missiles hitting some empty tent.
