If there is a Dork Hall of Fame, Obama would be elected in his first year of eligibility.

There is no complexity.

Either you are against the terrorists or you are on their side.

Bad checker player explaining his skunking at chess by a chess master by telling everyone they were really playing Chinese checkers. Or something.

““We’re not going to make Syria into a proxy war between the United States and Russia,” Obama insisted during an afternoon news conference at the White House.”

I’m normally no fan of Obama, but if he’s willing to disengage so that Russia can take care of the Terrorists in Syria, then MORE POWER TO HIM.

The last thing we need is some hormone-driven ‘Republican’ (I won’t mention her name) DEMANDING that we start World War 3 against Russia.

Let Russia clean this mess up, and then THANK THEM when it’s over. I’m sick of trying to play good-cop there.

Putin has no respect for our sissy-girl, on the down-low leader.

Obama has been supporting the people Assad and Putin want dead.

Let’s see how Obola feels when the Russians start to mass on the Saudi’s northern border.

Obola will pack up the armored div that’s in SA right now and take it home.

As they say, “You can’t win if you don’t play.”

We’re not going to make Syria into a proxy war between the United States and Russia,” Obama insisted during an afternoon news conference at the White House. “This is not some superpower chessboard contest. And anybody who frames it in that way isn’t paying very close attention to what’s been happening on the chessboard"

The middle east has just been ceded to Russia. That's what I observe happening on the Chess board.

Obama has lost all seriousness. He is now down to very bad lines, silliness, showing no class whatsoever. Middle school behavior at best. RCP quit polling his numbers is he forever stuck at 43 approval now? I sure would like to know.

He and Hillary deserve each other. She can at least string two intelligible sentences together, more than Barack can manage these days, but alas, (sigh) her audibles are all lies, with fluency added only as a flourish, typical of her audacity.

They may, and if they do, we Republicans have at least AS MUCH BLAME as the President, for letting our military deteriorate so much that we’re no longer able to stop Russia in that part of the world.
