AWOL Obama Vanishes Again: Three Hours After Another American Is Brutally Beheaded, president is whisked away from the White House – without finding time to say a single word about it Presdident walks to Marine One past journalists while ignoring their shouted questions. State Department's chief Iraq-Iran deputy said 'stay tuned' for a strategy: 'we are building now a broader campaign plan.' CNN anchor pounces: 'You say "stay tuned," but in the meantime ISIS is busy beheading our colleagues'

Barack Obama left for a three-day European swing Tuesday afternoon without saying a single word in response to a terrorist video showing the beheading of Steven Sotloff, the second American journalist to die that way on camera. The president's departure came amid equally deafening swirls of helicopter rotors and tough questions about whether and when the U.S. will strike back in a meaningful and public way against ISIS, the self-proclaimed Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham. News of Sotloff's execution broke online at 1:05 p.m., shortly after White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest began his daily briefing with reporters; he said four minutes later that he hadn't heard the news. By 3:40, Obama was lifting off from the South Lawn of the White House on his way to a waiting Air Force One, which was 'wheels up' by 4:00.

Message for ISIS:

1. You wouldn't dare behead another journalist. All hell is going to break loose.

2. This is backfiring on you. The media here simply don't care if a journalist is beheaded.

3. If you behead at least 25 journalists at once, many of us will decide to become ISIS loyalists, realizing resistance is completely futile.

Obama knows that he is at the end of his effectiveness.

There are two ways that Obama can be revered in History by Liberals, and neither involve Resignation from Office.

I watched Col. Ralph Peters tonight on Hannity opine that he no longer believes that owebama WON’T make a decision, he CAN’T make a decision.

Being president is WAY above the community agitator’s pay grade.

They are in the planning stage on coming up with a proposition to draft a blueprint that outlines the beginnings of a strategy. When Obama gets back from the golf course.

Goldwater told Nixon: “It is time to go.” and Nixon Resigned.

Harry Reid will do the same for Obama, IF Reid becomes convinced that Obama is doing irreparable harm to the Democrat Party.

The irony is brutal, literally.

These amoral liars get this psychopath elected, then for 6 long years they run interference for him. Even after he was caught spying on them they covered his ass.

Now they are learning the truth some of us have known for a long time. The US government doesn’t protect its citizens.

The oxygen wasters than populate the leftist media never cared because they believe themselves more equal than we, the great unwashed. They see themselves as special people, part of the inner circle, members of the elite.

Christiane Amanpour is not having a revelation. As soon as Obozo stops pissing on the press, they will forget this and continue serving their master.

I still chuckle when I think about the joke Ted Cruz told over the weekend about 0bama. Mark Steyn relayed it on Rush’s show today. It was something like: “0bama’s weight loss secret is to let Putin eat his lunch”.

Yup, and after Nixon resigned we got Ford, the only Vice President that nobody voted for.

My point is that a goofball VEEP is far better than a paranoid, psycho CIC, any day!

Probably right, and like Ford, Biden can’t be re-elected, can he?

25th Amendment 101. Only no one vote for Nelson Rockefeller either and he became Ford’s VP.

Nonsense. The entirety of the American press could be executed, and the very last one’s dying words will be, “It’s G.W. Bush’s fault....”
