On the eve of what’s expected to be the most-traveled holiday for Americans in a decade, President Obama’s national security advisers told him Tuesday that there is no specific, credible threat from the Islamic State extremists who carried out the deadly attacks in Paris.

Mr. Obama met with his national security council at the White House to discuss the response to the Paris killing spree on Nov. 13 and other attacks by the militants. The advisers told the president there is no known threat to the homeland from the extremist group, also known by the acronym ISIL.

The president has been urging Americans to go on with their daily routines and not be concerned about a possible terrorist attack in the U.S., as people prepare to travel for the Thanksgiving holiday.

{sigh}......that is because we are now the Soviet Union circa 1984.

You DO NOT TELL the Grand Imperial Leader anything he does NOT want to hear, unless you want your job, your career prospects, your retirement, your very existence, to be unceremoniously short-circuited.

Yes, Emperor, those clothes are lovely!

The terrorists love to prove Omuslim wrong, too ..... Jayvee? Kaboom! Contained? Kaboom kaboom! No threat in America? We’ll see what happens.

No kidding, has he given the 'trigger' code word for Thanksgiving or Black Friday yet? I don't and won't watch his press conferences.

I guess we’ll find out, won’t we? Usually, whatever he says is such a lie that the exact opposite is true. If he gets his panties in a wad with the press now, wait until there is a terrorist attack here & they quote back to him what he said about no threat in America. The temper tantrum should be epic.

“The resume of Ntl Security Council advisor Susan Rice entitled “My Accomplishments in the Obama Administration” has already gone several major overhauls.”

12 pages of pure bliss.

EZ read.

its not where they will do it, its when.

I wonder if they know enough about US history to choose Dec 7 to make it even more of "a day that will live in infamy"?
