Barack Obama must have thought ISIS was a DC comics superhero. He had to. It’s the only explanation.
We truly have an imbecile for a President. Oh sure, he’s great at siccing the IRS on conservatives and spying on innocent Americans but when it comes to foreign policy, he sucks. He was really good at apologizing for America but he is God awful when the 3 am phone rings.
Remember when ISIS was the jayvee?
In the 2012 campaign, Obama spoke not only of killing Osama bin Laden; he also said that Al Qaeda had been “decimated.” I pointed out that the flag of Al Qaeda is now flying in Falluja, in Iraq, and among various rebel factions in Syria; Al Qaeda has asserted a presence in parts of Africa, too.
“The analogy we use around here sometimes, and I think is accurate, is if a jayvee team puts on Lakers uniforms that doesn’t make them Kobe Bryant,” Obama said, resorting to an uncharacteristically flip analogy.
During this time, the Obama administration has been dancing as fast as it can seeking to convince us not to believe our lying eyes. His messages are delivered by the uber-dunce Marie Harf. If there is a bigger idiot in the world than Marie Harf, I am not sure who it is. She has been on a crusade downplaying ISIS as an entity and a threat.
– The ISLAMIC state in Iraq and Syria “Does Not Operate In The Name Of Any Religion”…
[W]hen pressed by reporters for details on what the United States expects from the other governments in the Middle East, Harf refused to go into specifics on how the administration is working with other countries to eliminate the threat posed by ISIS.
“Clearly there’s more we can all do to fight ISIL,” she said.
Harf also emphasized the administration’s view that ISIS does not accurately represent the religion of Islam as a whole.
“ISIL does not operate in the name of any religion. The president has been very clear about that, and the more we can underscore that, the better,” Harf said.
– The Foley beheading is not about the United States of America:
“I think ISIL wants to make this about the United States and our actions. And I think what the President was trying to say was that this is not about the United States and what we do. This is about countries in the region coming together to fight a shared threat, and this is not about us.”
ISIS: “We Will Raise The Flag Of Allah In The White House”
– The Iraqis have to pull themselves together:
ISIL is a threat not just because they kill innocent civilians because of their religion, but because they’re a huge security threat to the stability of certain parts of Iraq. And that’s why throughout this conflict you have seen us continue to ramp up our support and continue to look very urgently at other things we could do to help fight this threat, because at the end of the day we can help the Iraqis, but the Iraqis also have to stand up, they have to pull themselves together, with our help, because this is a threat that certainly they but no one else in the region wants to see grow any more.”
– We can’t be at war with ISIS because the State Department doesn’t believe we’re at war with ISIS:
There’s no question that ISIS believes that it as at war with the US. It keeps saying so.
And the US has launched several dozen airstrikes against them, while we are also arming and advising the Kurds who are fighting them on the ground. We’re also advising the Iraqi security forces. ISIS just beheaded an American journalist and is threatening to murder another one.
ISIS can’t be much of a threat because immediately after the beheading of James Foley tore off to the golf course, looking miserable all the while. This is Obama’s “somber” “gravity” face:
Unexpectedly, the tsunami of the ISIS threat has flooded the White House. Chuck Hagel had an epiphany:
“They’re beyond just a terrorist group,” Hagel said. “They marry ideology, sophistication of strategic and tactical military prowess, they are tremendously well-funded. This is beyond anything that we’ve seen. So we must prepare for everything. And the only way you do that is take a cold, steely, hard look at it and get ready.”
ISIS has gone from the jayvee team not about the United States to somehow possibly “pivoting” to attacks on the scale of the 9-11 attacks.
The execution of American journalist James Foley by ISIS represents a terrorist attack against the United States, a White House official told reporters Friday, adding that the organization could “pivot” to attacks on the scale of the September 11, 2001 attacks.
“When you see somebody killed in such a horrific way, that represents a terrorist attack,” White House Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes told reporters. ”That represents a terrorist attack against our country, against an American citizen, and I think all of us have the Foley family in our thoughts and prayers.”
ISIS has made the varsity:
The group President Obama dismissed as ”jayvee” now “controls a volume of resources and territory unmatched in the history of extremist organizations,” makes $3 million per day selling oil on the black market, are battling for control of Iraq’s largest dam and the power supply for the city of Mosul, are spreading into Lebanon, are threatening to starve or slaughter “at least 40,000 members of the Yazidi sect,”, is organizing protests in the Netherlands and is stepping up its recruitment of Westerners.
Or maybe someone has finally gotten Obama’s attention to turn from how to straighten out the slice to doing the job he was elected to do.
Leading from behind sucks in the real world. We’re in another war. Obama bitterly clings to the belief we’re not at war because he is so heavily invested in himself being the superhero of ending wars. Al Qaeda was decimated, Al Qaeda is on the run, the world is less violent than it has ever been, the global war on terror is over, I got bad intel. Obama sycophants might be so stupid as to believe whatever Obama says but the rest of the world is not.
But hey, we’re not going to decimate ISIS:

You know how Obama is downsizing the military? So does ISIS. They’re betting on it.
The ranking Republican on the Armed Services Committee in the U.S. Senate is warning that ISIS terrorists, those who this week beheaded an American journalist, are trying to develop the capability of blowing up an entire American city.
Almost 200 rounds of golf, 400 fundraisers, 138 days of vacation.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.
DrJohn has been a health care professional for more than 30 years. In addition to clinical practice he has done extensive research and has published widely with over 70 original articles and abstracts in the peer-reviewed literature. DrJohn is well known in his field and has lectured on every continent except for Antarctica. He has been married to the same wonderful lady for over 30 years and has three kids- two sons, both of whom are attorneys and one daughter on her way into the field of education.
DrJohn was brought up with the concept that one can do well if one is prepared to work hard but nothing in life is guaranteed.
Except for liberals being foolish.
ISIS controls 7 oil fields in Iraq and 2 oil refineries.
Every day on the black market they sell 2 million barrels of oil at around $20/barrel (compare to the legal price of $104) meaning every day they get $40 million dollars!
So, it isn’t like they’re poor terrorists who would stop being bad it only they had money.
And, back when Obama called ISIS jayvee they had just over-run Fallujah!
We fought hard to gain control of Fallujah losing 90 soldiers in the process.
So, to see it go was heartbreaking.
Now Obama is phoning it in.
He can’t even pretend to be sad as long as Bill Clinton did at the funeral of Ron Brown after he noticed cameras were on him.
This has happened before. British spies went to Spanish owned Florida to train and arm the natives to terrorize the citizens of the U.S. The U.S. asked Spain, superpower, to stop the attacks, but Spain said it was powerless to stop the attacks. General Andrew Jackson was ordered to prevent the natives from attacking the U.S. citizens. So Jackson and his troops marched into Florida, stopped the attacks, executed the spies and seized Florida for the U.S. That very act is what got Jackson elected president of the U.S.
The U.S. could create the U.S. Protectorate of Kurdistan running from Northern Syria East through Kurdish held territory. The U.S. could move the combined 50,000 troops from Germany and Italy, which no longer have to protect Europe from the Soviet horde, along with the illegal aliens in the U.S. the area would get added culture, the illegal aliens would have an extra incentive not to come to the U.S. and we could help the minorities in the region.
What if what is going on with isis is part of obama’s plan?
We have a marionette that can’t do or say anything without the puppeteers pulling the strings. One reason obama takes so long to make decisions is that he has to wait until the marionettes get together to decide what he should do and say.
obama has done almost everything but raise the muslim flag at the white house already. Look how many muslim events he has held, and even INVITED known muslim terrorists to the white house.
Pretend that obama wants the USA to fall. How would he react if one of his enemies had been killed?
What he was elected to do, and what he wants to do, are completely opposite of each other. I always go back to the national civilian security force he wants that will be as strong as, and as well funded as the military. Look at all of the SWAT teams that are being created in agencies like the Social Security Administration, and the Department of Education. I have read that there are now up to 70 departments that have SWAT teams. Before obama, the only federal SWAT teams were in the FBI. Let’s not forget about all of the ammo and guns these same agencies are buying.
That is one step that is taken before a government is taken over. The higher ranking officers are removed so they aren’t there to direct the military against a takeover. When Sodom Hussein to over Iraq, one of the first things he did was to have the generals killed so they couldn’t lead the military in a revolt against him.
I have been VERY afraid ever since I heard obama say he wants a civilian security force, and since he is doing almost everything that happened to Germany and other countries before they fell. I’m getting more and more glad that I have settled in Idaho, where we have more guns than people, and we can have whatever kind of gun and ammo that the feds don’t ban in the country.
This is one reason crime is so low here. The crooks know that the one they attack could be packing.
HI ABC News. Whats this I heard on Friday August 22, 2014 Fox News Radio. around 11:00am that the ISIS Group is in Chicago. I listened several times after but never heard this statement again, did they pull it from the Fox News Radio? I’ve checked the Chicago Tribune Newspaper but nothing is published. Obama needs to be back at the Whitehouse ASAP.
Opie is a muslim terrorist.
The fool and his administration will do nothing but aid ISIS with money and weapons.
When Chi-town goes boom-blame hagel, brenner , the fool, polosi, Feinstein, reid (the pedophile), and “the bonner” from ohio. Do not forget to leave out the illusionary member of the jcs’s.
Hagel said “we better get ready”. What? I thought we WERE ready; if not, why aren’t we? OH, that’s right, we decimated al Qaeda (as shown by our defeat of the terrorists at Benghazi). I remember the left wing scoffers that criticized those who state the war on terror was going to be long and difficult. As usual, they (and much of the American public) wanted to unilaterally declare victory and hope the terrorists are convinced they just lost… after all, it works on the sycophants here that believe Obama has fixed the economy, just because he says so.
For God’s sake, why are we not arming the Kurds? They are capable, trustworthy and they FIGHT. Arm them and provide air support. And why are we not taking out the refineries?
The female face of ISIS: British ISIS Jihadi Campaigns For Her Equal Right To Behead Infidels
It would not surprise me for the Obamas to invite this psychotic Islam-fascist feminist to dine with them in the White House, nor for NOW to recognize and honoring her for “furthering the woman’s movement.”
ISIS ?? Google Netanyahu’s comments about ISIS being good for Israel because they will stand up to Iran
Google who funded ISIS in its beginnings
Anyone care to guess when Cheney will personally negotiate the Halliburton contract to keep the refineries and all their military equipment (mostly US) that will need techs to keep going?
This is a straight up Sunni Shia fight. The Israelis are rooting for the ISIS Sunnis
The removal of Saddam further destabilized a very shaky region now the same idiots that thought the Iraq war was going to result in happiness for all think others should listen to their NEW thoughts on the region .
Every time that people want to start a new military adventure they always say
THESE ARE THE WORST PEOPLE EVER. WORSE THAN NAZIS WORSE THAN COMMIESWIRSE THAN YOUR IRDINARY RUN IF THE MILL MUSLIM TERRIRISTS!!!
We now should send other Americans to kill them ( I myself have other priorities)
Other than the fact that Dick Cheney had divested from Halliburton long before the 2003 use of them in Afghanistan or Iraq, I might go along with your idea IF only your quote above were true.
But it is not true.
If just Sunnis and Shai were killing one another I’d also say more power to them both.
(In fact, before ISIS began wiping out other people I did say that.)
But the truth is ISIS is surrounding Yazidi, Christian, Zoarastoran, Druiz, and a lot of other minority people’s areas, starving them out and then killing all of them.
These diverse people were having it hard enough being in a war-torn land, but ISIS is a sadistic version of Islam that goes well beyond what even Mohammad allowed (and he was pretty sadistic at times if you read the Hadith).
There is NO comparison to any recent historic group as sadistic as ISIS.
Even the Nazis knew to keep their mass slaughter away from their own civilian population…..ISIS encourages the children to add a sword blow to killing men women and children on public streets.
The only comparisons are to sick individuals in history:
The Marque de Sade, Saddam’s two sicko sons, and I’m running out of equivalents.
@Rebecca: The only reason for Obie to go to the WH is for the SOB to meet with the ISIS (MoBroHood) that is ALREADY THERE!!!
@MOS #8541: Whoa — where have you been — never leave out the numero uno’s — Rahm and his brother and Rev Wright and Axelrod — and the head RINOs – MuckStain and Ms Lindsay
