Saturday from the White House South Lawn, President Barack Obama blamed "intelligence estimates" for not anticipating the speed in which ISIS would capture large sections of Iraq.

Is Obama the only one in the room who doesn’t realize ISIS was established by his orchestration over the past 6 years?
Yes, the voters made intelligence estimates of dear leader that were were far greater than dear leader’s actual intelligence... The truth is painful... And deadly...
Doubtful. ISIS is another CIA creation. Just like Hussein, and alciaduh. They're just changing their business name because the alciaduh brand cant be used as an ally anymore.
Why with Burry's powers of mooseslime persuasion he should have a peace treaty negotiated with them just as soon as they finish commiting GENOCIDE against the Christians and Jews.
No it didn’t, and Bush never used it as an excuse. He simply said that he went by what he had, which was actually sound information for what it was...the Dems insisted that there had to be WMD in there for us to go in (even though Saddam and that whole cluster were busy supporting even more radical forces, and we were originally going in because of that) and Saddam definitely had WMD. Thus the information had to be undermined, corrupted and cast into doubt.
But Bush never blamed the CIA for giving him bad information; not everything was completely accurate (because it never is), but they actually had the general gist of it until the Dems got into insane things like Valerie Plame, etc.
If Obama wanted “intelligence” about this, all he had to do was read the newspapers. And if he had wanted a special report, I’m sure he could have gotten one, except that he never goes to NSC meetings or even his daily briefings.
So he’s blaming this on the intelligence services. Cute. I wish one of them would post his foreign birth certificate in retaliation.
When is our vaunted intelligence going to come forward to defend themselves and throw this whiney punk under a tank????
YOu know, the one we spend a hundred billion or so a year to not see the fall of the soviet union? The same one that missed 9-11, etc etc?
10 Bears he’s not!
dey be raysis for giving me bad intel
SOS. Soetoro lies.
AS USUAL.....OBAMA SAYS...Not my fault,
and always someone else to blame...the guy just get worst daily...and off he goes on vacation...and MSM just smiles and moves on....what an embarrassment to a once Great Nation..
“Obama blamed ‘intelligence estimates’ ...”
Democrats should follow his lead and question theirs.
I wonder if the the various intelligence agencies are going to take this one lying down . . . or if we will suddenly see a few strategic leaks that prove otherwise.
On this general topic, Obama has always held to the adage that-
“Nobody ever lost an election underestimating the intelligence of the American voter.
It would be great to see the ‘chickens come home to roost’ by having someone in the Intelligence services call him on this outright insult ... In a match of wits with the experts, POSOTUS would get a rude awakening.

I guess that falls into the realm of “unexpected”.
What an asshole! We know exactly who is doing what and has what. The problem is from the top.
It has been posted right here on FR several times. The PTB decided to zot those posters.
Even I knew ISIS was on the march and that we could have droned them on their convoys from Syria two months ago. Maybe I could be on his staff of advisors.
Could you leave any sense of morality, honesty, integrity at the doorway? If so, you might have a shot.
