What will be Fearless Leader’s next move?

Blame Bush.

[berdie]

I guess I just don’t get it.

There is intel that says who and where the attack is? Just bomb the crap out of them.

They already died for nothing, all the soldiers and Marines who died in Mosul, Fallujah, Ramahdi, etc etc etc.

ISIS advances in Iraq and Syria while our F/A-18 pilots are ordered by Traitor Team Obama to bomb empty buildings and refugees' grain silos..

Pres. Bush took Baghdad from Saddam then Pres. Hussein gave it to ISIS.

Oh YOU KNOW that’s coming...

[Enlightened1]

Yep just like the Vietnam Vets got crapped all over.... It’s happening all over again to the citizens that love our country and would die for it. It’s horrible situation.

[We have something like 1600 souls over there right now.]

1400..... heh heh

Just kidding...

On an earlier thread about the troops in Baghdad, where Obama was claiming that no combat troops had been deployed to Iraq...I posted that their being combat troops depended on whether or not they were getting shot at or not...We shall see...

I see various forms of the word “unexpected” coming our way.

[SoFloFreeper]

You know, I actually DID think about that when I was typing it out... :)

Paging John Kerry, Paging John Kerry.

Please pick up the White Courtesy Phone.

The Coach of the Junior Varsity Team needs to talk to you.

This is all going as planned. I find it amazing what this nation is putting up with. We don’t seem to have a “ this far, and no farther” moment when it comes to what he is allowed to do.

"are we about to see another embassy hostage crisis?"

Just guessing, but it is unlikely that ISIS would bother with hostages. They would simply decapitate every American they could get their hands on.

[353FMG]

If they do, they will abandon the largest and most expensive US embassy building in the world.

[Enterprise]

"Will the United States abandon Baghdad in the next hour, embassy and military personal?"

Count on it. No act of abandonment or cowardice is too shameful for Democrats.

[manc]

no problem here, so long as we keep bombing empty buildings and not the lives of the enemy to avoid deaths then all is well in a Obama world

[manc]

so peaceful he;s bombed 7 countries in 6 years.

I think we might have left an empty building in Syria, quick best bomb it.

[Chgogal]

Will there be a Fall of Saigon Redux? Will it be the October Surprise? Any bets?
