    Your hatred of Obama is blinding you to the fact that everything he's said jibes completely with what's going on over there. He just has the additional responsibility to not screw up our diplomacy with the rest of the Muslim world, so he can't throw those NY Post style bombs that seem to turn you on.

    TDS ran a great story a couple days ago juxtaposing Obama's rhetoric and actions against everything the GOP rump in Congress wants us to do. They are identical. All the whining from the right is just the empty sloganeering of the HE'S TEH ANITCHRIST!!!!! crowd.

        The Mom of an ex-GF watched nothing but MSNBC. Even though she was a Harvard History PhD I still couldn't stand talking to her -- she was nothing but a playback device for Rachel. (And I got nuthin' against Rachel, but the entire point of education is to be able to think for yourself.)

                Don't dodge the question. Beyond acknowledging what their objectives are, do you have any specific ideas for dealing with ISIS? How are we supposed to know that your plan is any different or better than Obama's?

                    I go with the boots on the ground option as soon as the children of the 1% and members of Congress sign up to be in the first wave.

                        Not sure they'll do that. They wanted to get a draft going for Iraqi Freedom because the Millennials are Baby Boomers' kids, and with there being too many of those, gotta control the population with war (reference: Dr. Day's warning). It backfired. And now, the millennials are past the draft age. So what do you do? You aren't going to have enough.

                          Obama has a plan? he is surely keeping it well hidden!

                            There was more to that post than what you quoted. Still dodging the question.

                              You certainly dodge better than Glass Joe. I suppose it would be out of character for you to offer any answers of your own.

                                I actually admire Obama's rhetorical resistance to all enemies, foreign and domestic, in the interest of winning the real fight. He's a pretty tough dude not to give in by sinking to the Republicans' level.
