President Barack Obama said at a Democratic fundraiser in New York on Tuesday evening that he had “ended two wars” during his presidency.

In its recently released human rights report on Iraq, however, the State Department said that the Iraqi government had “lost effective control” over a large part of Iraqi territory to the Islamic State terrorist group.

Also, according to the State Department’s Country Reports on Terrorism 2014, the group that the administration now calls ISIL was founded in the 1990s by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and fought against U.S. forces in Iraq before Obama removed U.S. troops from that country. Since then, the group has continued to fight and commit acts of terror in Iraq and elsewhere--while seizing control over a significance part of Iraqi territory. …

Gee, a Pezident who is a pathological psychopathic liar. Whee.

[Dilbert San Diego]

Why does Obama call them ISIL when almost everyone else calls them ISIS??? Is there some difference in the acronyms which Obama feels is significant that he uses the acronym which only a distinct minority of people use???

[SunkenCiv]

He's off his meds. Again. Thanks Olog-hai.

[avital2]

yes,he lost 2 wars. for sure he lost Iraq - while he pretended to be interested in the “good” war in Afghanistan he never was committed to winning it and is in the process of losing that one too.

[MinorityRepublican]

And he started a war in Libya and ran away from that.

ISIS is currently seizing territory in Libya.

[tumblindice]

Obama is a disgrace.

[Don Corleone]

_resident Barack Hussein Chamberlain.

[TigersEye]

Yup.

[SaxxonWoods]

Oh the joys of the low-information life.

You notice he didn’t say “We won two wars.”

[Skepolitic]

It would have been more accurate if he had said that he had lost four wars: Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and Syria.

But, what the heck, I understand Newspeak.

[ex-snook]

I hope the next President gets Americans killed only when fighting wars to protect America not to protect the interests of other countries. Every country should die for their own interests.

[Eagles6]

I’m sure a lot of other “males” have found it.

[silverleaf]

for Obama abandoning ship means he ended 2 wars!

what an a$$

yeah barack

you “ended the wars” and all the Iraqis and Afghans and the terrorists among them went home and beat their swords into plowshares

[silverleaf]

this

[tophat9000]

Anyone can end a war by surrendering...it ending it by winning that's tricky

[basil]

LOL! You’re bad…...

[Eagles6]

Just sayin’.

[Feckless]

Obama: ‘We’ve Ended Two Wars

Surrendering doesn't count you Marxist, Mooslim, Kenyan, Steaming Pant Load Sissy Boy

[VideoDoctor]

A war ends when you’ve beaten the enemy, not ran away.

Don't kid yourself. He knows what he's doing.

America is too proud to admit they elected a MUSLIM Presidink who continues to run interference for his RADICAL Muslim brothers in any way that he can.

Obozo is NOT stupid... he's EVIL.

BTTT Obama idiot bump
