Obama: U.S. safe against ISIS attack (Bonus coverage: you really can keep your doctor)
CNN ^ | 12/04/15 | Tom LoBianco

Washington (CNN) President Barack Obama said in an interview that aired Thursday that he is confident the U.S. is safe from a Paris-style attack from ISIS and that American law enforcement is well equipped to protect the nation during the holidays.

"ISIL will not pose an existential threat to us. They are a dangerous organization like al Qaeda was, but we have hardened our defenses," Obama told CBS. "The American people should feel confident that, you know, we are going to be able to defend ourselves and make sure that, you know, we have a good holiday and go about our lives."

His comments came amid reports that the FBI is investigating ISIS sympathizers across the nation and a new study shows support for the terrorist group has reached unprecedented levels domestically. But Obama called for calm and said that terrorists and ISIS "only win if we start reacting out of fear."

We’re safe from an attack like the one we just saw in California.

Right.

“existential” - Does Obama even know what this means? VERY FEW groups or nations have ever posed such a threat to us. So he is trying to belittle ISIS, once again. Bad timing, Obama...

Mental illness is just one of a few theories as to why he is what he is.. And why he does or doesn’t do what he does.. And who he really does it for.

He shreds the Constitution, he leaves the borders pororus, he provides weapons to terrorists movements, he could care less who dies in his wake. Ask seal team 6.

His number one priority is not this country’s number one need.

Leadership during a time of war and invasion of the “Homeland”.
