Others dont see the big picture.
It needs to be pointed out that just before a major event happens that needs to be watered down by the state department you begin to see anchors stepping down, editorialists taking leaves of absence or retiring to make way for the new agents that have no choice but to push the propaganda for the Pentagon.

What is this “degrade” bullshit all the time? Did we try to degrade the Nazis, the Japs, the NorKors, the VC, the Iraqis? No! We tried to kill them and we were very successful at it.

Let me see if I understand this... The Pres(id)ent who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize (no original birth certificate required) is wanting to wage YET ANOTHER war, not to benefit US interests, but to prop up another Islamic regime?
Guess those peace prizes are given out to just about anyone..

Looks like Obama is going to half-ass it again, dragging the war out and costing lives. With reductions allowing for Islamics in high government offices, and his loathing for the military, and hate for the U.S. in general, I would put it at more like a one fourth ass effort on his part.

“U.S. President Barack Obama asked Congress on Wednesday to authorize military force against Islamic State that would bar any large-scale invasion by U.S. ground troops and limit operations to three years.”
Hey Jim - what happened to the rule of making clear it was SATIRE!? Oh - it isn’t.
Too bad Obama wasn’t in charge when we had all of those other wars. It would have been so much easier.
“Okay, so here’s the deal Hitler. We’ll only use small amounts of troops - no big battles. Four tanks at the most. And after three years you commit suicide - agreed?”

Is there anyone who trusts Obama to be committed to a US victory against these radicals?
In that case, do not give him the authority. It will backfired. Guran-damned-teed.

Giving the clown authorization is sending our troops to die.

To: Jim Robinson
Obie has a pen and a phone and has NOT needed anything from Congress in the past including his invasion of Libya. Why does he now feel that he needs to acquire Congressional approval? So he can blame a GOP run congress when his foreign adventures run amok. This boy king has fired all the Generals that knew how to fight a war and has replaced them with political YES men.
HE has no intention of actually fighting ISLAM - take that to the bank. This is a boy who was raised around Muslims and influenced by Muslims. Is he a muzzie? Some would argue you can never leave the Islam faith which he was brought up in, but it makes no difference whether we can agree if he is or is not a Muslim in sheep's clothing - HE WILL NEVER TURN ON MUSLIMS and has no intentions of waging a REAL WAR in ISIL or whatever you choose to call it.
Lastly, Obie has been shamed by the swift and brutal Jordan response and now he has to one up them.

Congress should give him a big “NOPE!”. Zero ran on a platform of getting us out of the war on terror. All he’s ever done is complain about it and how he’s saddled with the burden of getting us out of there. So suck it up, O. It’s your agenda, live with it.

BINGO
AND NOW ABOUT THAT TERM:
"The Pentagon and the military in general often use commonplace words in a slightly different way than what we are used to, and I hear that in 'degrade,'" he said. "We're used to hearing it as something being degrading or something degraded by that. We're not used to hearing it as an active, transitive verb."
Whoever came up with it is not using it in the sense that it's usually used in in the English language, Lakoff said.
DEGRADE AND DESTROY
