Of course everything is everyone else’s fault, not Obama’s...

Obama: Bad Intelligence Behind ISIS Underestimation
That would be Alfred E. Obama's own intelligence.

This is just staggering. His reliance on a nutless MSM and his own transparent dishonesty, make for a very dangerous policy process.
I’m more concerned than yesterday, that he will detach further and watch an obvious threat grow beyond his control to defend against it.
To: Pilgrim's Progress
Thanks. Doug is still the grand master though.

Obama and his handlers expected ISIS to stay in Syria, then do Jordan, then attack Israel.
He calls them ISIL (L for ‘Levant’) in a feeble attempt to remind them of their prior agreements.
The leaders of ‘ISIS’ (S soon to be for ‘Saudi Arabia’) see greener pastures to the south.
Obama and crew may have finally found a crew more treacherous than themselves.

Not to worry this will be spun as the fault of the "bad intelligence" excuse by Bush over 10 years ago which got us involved in Iraq in the first place ...

However when Bush has bad intelligence he’s a liar who should be impeached.

BS..Like ignoring intelligence on the Panty bomber, the Boston Bombers, Hasan of Ft. Hood, Stevens of Benghazi...
He tried to ignore this...He could care less about Christians...BUT
He was overheard at lunch...."Now I've got the Pope on my back and he's got access to a HUGE and series voting block".
Muzzies will understand that I can lie for the cause".

All those who voted for Clown Prince nobama have “bad intelligence”. How’s that hope-and-change thingee workin’ out for you? Those misshapen-headed fools should be wandering the USA begging for forgiveness.

For weeks, intelligence officials had been watching the militant group, the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, gain in strength, replenishing its arsenals with weapons captured both in Syria and in Iraq. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/09/world/middleeast/fear-of-another-benghazi-drove-white-house-to-airstrikes-in-iraq.html?_r=
sounds like obozo's caught lying again.
