You really should never rule out much of anything as president.
you don’t rule out anything. you don’t broadcast your certain exit dates.
the dumbasses in the White House keep broadcasting their plans to the terrorists. It’s just retarded.
Well, Ted, I might vote for you if need be...then again with that kinda wishy washy response not so sure now...

When Mogadishu shot down a Black-hawk we should have carpet bombed the entire city. When the ships were hijacked by men and boats from there we should have destroyed every ship boat and pier on the waterfront and came back every few day to do it again.
When Russia or China said something, then you puff out your chest and say 'that's one'
Wringing hands and wondering "why they hate us" empowers them. They only fear power...
Enough Americans have died. Give moderate Muslims 3 months to clean up their religion by any means necessary. If that fails, nuke Mecca and watch the pillars of Islam disappear.
The first step to defeating Islamic terrorists is to get all Dems out of positions of control in the US Govt! Federal, state and local. Period
What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
I realize everyone wants ISIS to be crushed and sending troops there would do the job.
The bigger question is, after you’ve crushed ISIS, what? We crushed the Taliban (temporarily), we crushed Saddam - who have we allowed to take their place?
Well, the Taliban is back stronger and more legitimate than before, and we got ISIS instead of Saddam and failed states all over the middle east. I wouldn’t call that progress or money and lives well spent.
I would like to see from some of the freepers here an actually well thought out strategy on how to defeat this monster of an ideology for good, or at least contain it to some tiny part of the world.
So, if you were running for president how would you seriously answer that question? (Hint - Dropping A-bombs in Mecca and other unholy places is not a serious answer, nor is it going to get you elected)
Sounds good to me.
What is this “if need be” crap? It is obviously needed, and yesterday!! Ted, I’m surprised at this RINO-like language - don’t go mushy on us!!
If America has the choice to survive or fight on the ground, then fight on the ground it has to be, whether everyone is war-weary or not. You can’t just lie down and die.
Lost my vote dumb sh!t. When you can prove Isis is in row boats headed this way- NO TROOPS!
They would probably destroy ISIS faster by putting troops on the ground in Doha or Ankara - but nobody wants to go there, yet.
