OBAMA: ISIS WOULDN'T BE A PROBLEM IF MEDIA DIDN'T REPORT ON IT
FrontPage ^ | November 23, 2015 | Staff

Obama always claims he found out about scandals from the "news". He only ramps up the fight against ISIS, when the media's reporting makes it obvious that the group is still a problem. So he has an obvious solution.

If the media would just stop covering ISIS, it wouldn't be a problem.

“The media needs to help in this,” he said, admitting that it has been a “difficult week,” with the threat posed by ISIS becoming a primary focus in the media.

“One of the things that has to happen is how we report on this has to maintain perspective, and not empower in any way these terrorist organizations or elevate them in ways that make it easier for them to recruit or make them stronger,” he said.

We shouldn't "focus" on ISIS. Instead let's call them a JV team and let them take over Iraq. That worked for Obama last time.

But then the media reports on Yazidi genocide and suddenly Obama looks stupid and has to pretend to bomb ISIS. Or ISIS massacres a whole bunch of people in Paris and then Americans start to be "afraid" and then Obama has to pretend to bomb ISIS some more.

Can't we all just pretend to agree that ISIS doesn't exist?

That means no reporting on ISIS. If you are about to be killed by ISIS, please don't call the police. That will just perpetuate the cycle of violence since we all know fighting terrorists, just creates more terrorists. And if we all commit to pretending ISIS doesn't exist, it'll instantly be defeated because its real motivation is to get Americans to hate Muslims. At least that's what the media says.

So boys and girls, close your eyes and repeat after me, "There's no ISIS, There's no ISIS, There's no ISIS."

But there's just one problem with Obama's plan. If the media stops reporting on ISIS and it carries out a terrorist attack in America, how will Obama ever find out it took place?

Certainly not from the intelligence analysts.

Analysts at U.S. Central Command were pressured to ease off negative assessments about the Islamic State threat and were even told in an email to “cut it out,” Fox News has learned – as an investigation expands into whether intelligence reports were altered to present a more positive picture.

Separately, a former Pentagon official told Fox News there apparently was an attempt to destroy the communications. The Pentagon official said the email warnings were "not well received" by the analysts.

Heard somebody on FOX News say that Obama’s behavior has become too bizarre for Saturday Night Live even to parody.

Head deep in the sand or up his_______.

Either way, not enough Oxygen is reaching his brain, which appears to be the size of the Ostrich he is imitating...

If we will it, the badness will go away, please mommy, please, tell the bogey man to go away!

His mother: Oh, Barry, just tap your Ruby slippers together and say, there's no place like denial, no place like denial...

Barry: Oh, thanks mommy! The bogey man has gone away.

His mother: Good then Barry...

Barry: Mommy, where's daddy?

His mother: Good night son, go to sleep...

So some Christian women are raped 30 times a day? Big deal!


So some people are tortured and killed.......who cares! Why is the British media even reporting this? The American media knows when to shut up!

Obama does not care what destruction, torture, rape, mutilation, and murder he has caused, especailly to these little ones.

But I guarantee you that Jesus Christ, looking down from heaven, sees everything.

These are the words of Jesus:

"If anyone causes one of these little ones--those who believe in me--to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea."

Matthew 18:6

Yeah it is kinda like blacks killing blacks in Detroit, Chicago, NOLA, etc. Do not report on it and pooooof, it is not happening.

I tell you what. Let us just try Obama for treason and stretch his neck but not report on it.

I bet everyone knows about it by the end of the day.

Except for the blacks in Detroit, Chicago and NOLA who are busy killing each other.

Yes and Baltimore could lower its murder rate to zero by making it legal to kill people. Problem solved right?
Moynahan coined the phrase “Defining deviance down.” Maybe Obama read something about that.

That is because to him what ISIS is doing is not a problem.

That's only because ISIS hasn't killed someone he loves.

Anyone know Reggie Love's home address?

And, as of today, Obama’s approval rating is 44%.
