How ISIS Came to Control Large Portions of Syria and Iraq? in a word: Obama.

Barry's just doing the best he can. He couldn't get the Muslim Brotherhood set up in Egypt. Libya remains messy, but a jihadi playground on the Mediterranean ain't bad.

And he was pretty cool with ISIS, until they started raping mothers and children on mountain tops, and chopping off American heads on Youtube.

And it's not that Barry was that broken up about it (as he still managed to get in his 18 holes), or really wanted to do anything. Its that these sorts of displays cause other people to pay attention and say “Hey, these guys are really nasty. Maybe we should do something?” So Barry rolls his eyes, and throws up his hands in that petulant how-dare-you-bother-me sort of way he has, and tells ValJar to call the Joint Chiefs in for a chat.

Guess he made the right decision to get out of Iraq, eh? Not.

In four words:

Obama cut and ran.
