The President of the United States is impotent. Useless and impotent. Maybe worse than that. Obama just held a press conference in Antalya Turkey, and it was shameful.
When a person suffers a laceration there are a couple of options available. One, gauze packs can be applied to soak up the blood as it pours out, or two, the cause of the bleeding can be ligated. In the first example, the patient dies. In the second, the patient lives.
Obama does NOT want to stop the bleeding.
Francois Hollande’s reaction to the ISIS bombing?
Obama?
He’ll “shrink” ISIS territory using social media. Uneffing believable. Obama spent more time attacking his critics than he did addressing ISIS.
In his presser Obama absolutely confounded the world when Jim Acosta asked
“Why can’t we take out these bastards?”
He had no answer other than to babble. Obama was never more emotional than when he spoke of Muslim refugees. He asserted that the refugees are parents and children. These “refugees” are mostly young men. In his presser Obama entirely glossed over the atrocities committed by these “refugees.” Rapes are epidemic in refugee camps.
Muslim “refugees” throw Christian refugees overboard to their deaths
Rome (CNN)Muslims who were among migrants trying to get from Libya to Italy in a boat this week threw 12 fellow passengers overboard — killing them — because the 12 were Christians, Italian police said Thursday.
Nothing captures Syrian “refugees” more than this image:
Obama gave ISIS weapons and territory in which to play. In May ISIS paraded US military hardware left behind when Obama abandoned Iraq.
The ISIS fleet of captured U.S. military vehicles, including M1A1 tanks, grew by more than 100 when Iraqi Security Forces (ISF) fled the provincial capital of Ramadi 60 miles west of Baghdad and abandoned their equipment , Pentagon officials said Tuesday.
In addition, “there were some artillery pieces left behind,” said Army Col. Steve Warren, a Pentagon spokesman, but he could not say how many.
About 100 wheeled vehicles and “in the neighborhood of dozens of tracked vehicles” were lost to ISIS when the last remaining Iraqi defenders abandoned the city of about 500,000, Warren said.
The tracked vehicles were mostly armored personnel carriers but “maybe half a dozen tanks” were in the mix, Warren said. He did not say what type of tanks they were. Photos posted by ISIS on social media purported to show about 10 M1A1 Abrams tanks in their possession and large amounts of captured ammunition.
What did Obama do about that? Nothing.
What should Obama do? I’ve said it before. Assemble a coalition- Turkey, Jordan, England, Russia, France, Saudi, Egypt, Israel- put forces on the ground and in the air. Take on ISIS and utterly destroy them. This is not just France’s problem. It’s everyone’s problem. ISIS has taken down an airliner and now has murdered 129 French. It’s what a real leader would do.
Talk to the hand, says Obama.
Obama does NOT want ISIS to be wiped out. He does want to import millions of Muslims into this country. We can’t vet them properly. We can’t know if they’re threats but Obama is insistent on taking them in despite that. Until ISIS is terminated, the “refugee” flow will not stop. One has to ask- is this the strategy? Obama may not officially be a Muslim, but there is not a greater Islamic sympathizer on the face of the Earth.
And yes, Obama, they ARE Islamic terrorists. Until he come to grips with that, we’re not safe. And he can stop acting as Islam’s chief expert spokesman.
Obama won’t take the steps needed to wipe out ISIS for good. Obama will continue a reckless campaign to import hundreds of thousands of Muslims without knowing if they’re a threat to the US. What we’re doing against ISIS isn’t working but obama says we’re staying the course. He won’t solve the problem. There’s something very wrong with Obama.
See author page
Trump had been talking about how he would have bombed ISIS oil if he were president right now.
He pointed out how quickly any infrastructure could be rebuilt later when we want it to.
Obama just announced he was bombing oil tanker trucks.
116 of them were hit by Warthogs over the space of one 24-hour period.
what Obama didn’t say was that he leafleted the enemy so that many trucks were hidden from view in garages and tents while all ISIS personnel were saved from being IN those trucks when they were hit.
He sure is careful not to hurt Muslims.
When Israel did the same thing, warning Gazans bombs were coming Obama condemned the Israelis.
The following is from Winston Churchill. A man Obama isn’t qualified to shine the boots of.
How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries, improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live.
A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement, the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.
Individual Muslims may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.
Look no further than VJ
I was stuck watching Obama while waiting for my flight. He makes me nauseous with his insane, pedantic, insufferable, clueless, arrogant, anti-American blatherings.
I don’t think he is stupid anymore. I truly believe Obama wants to weaken the US and to strengthen islam as much as he can get away with. There is no other explanation for why, after the vaunted 6000+ air sorties against ISIS that the left brags about as showing Obama’s laughable military prowess, that the French had anything to target in Raqqa.
Shep Smith slams anti-refugee ‘political extremists’ : ‘We cannot resort to the tactics of barbarians’
http://www.rawstory.com/2015/11/shep-smith-slams-anti-refugee-political-extremists-we-cannot-resort-to-the-tactics-of-barbarians/
@Nanny G: Also gives them time to empty the trucks and or make up a bunch of decoy trucks and make up a convoy comprised of decoy and empty trucks stalled on a road with no drivers — — the SOB is a pure and clear TRAITOR — as are the eff’n RINOS and the whole dam demo-COMMUNIST party!
Mission Accomplished ?
Dr.J,
Every time he stands at the podium, he is embarrassing. He’s just not the sharpest knife in the proverbial drawer.
Strangely today he confused himself — he refused to acknowledge that the terrorists are Islamist terrorists, BUT suggested that Muslim leaders in the M.E. should speak out. . . . . huh?
What did I smell? Maybe they’re not Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, Shintos, Sikhs, or any OTHER religions, but they are Muslims? Really? Hmmmmmm. Twilight zone much? Maybe I’m just confused.
. . . . And THIS from Dinesh D’Souza for a little confirmation of the obvious about what’s wrong with this President:
A conversation about “Obama is a leader” will go no where. He is the anti thesis of a leader. Obama has no problem with ISIS winning. It is part of his strategy to weaken the US. It won’t work. He only has one year left. While he can do a lot of damage to the US in that time, he can not kill it. We will get a leader in Jan 2017 and ISIS will cease to be a problem.
I am a military veteran and I love this country, but damn it, Obama is an embarrassment. He doesn’t have any answers, he can’t answer any questions, he can only babble and sound foolish. Hopefully it will be proven that he was never eligible to be president and his name will be stricken from the list. I would never have thought that American citizens would stand by while a complete idiot embarrassed this country. Oh well, he only has a year left.
@James Raider: ,
I don’t know how this can be stated unequivocally. Who is his father? Is it Barack Obama Sr? is it Frank Marshall Davis? there are a couple more names circulated. so how do we know. I’m sure Obama doesn’t know.
@Redteam: #11
“Stealing America” by Dinesh D’Souza should get as much air-time as possible. The pervasive corruption and vindictiveness of this Administration has no precedent.
Doesn’t unnecessarily flying those fighter-bombers for no reason (them returning without having used their ordinance) creating a carbon footprint, thus promoting global warming, thus promoting terrorism? Liberals? Anything?
Isn’t it odd that there are still ISIS targets after all of Obama’s bombings?
@Reem:
Who cares what that leftist idiot says? By that logic, one should start feeding and letting into your home every stray animal that walks up to your yard, despite confirmed reports that some number of those animals have rabies – but we can’t tell which ones.
So who is the bigger threat? Obama or ISIS ?
@Redteam: And we must be ready to eliminate the possibility of more than that year.
@DrJohn: We haven’t run out of bombs, either.
@James Raider: Is that CONVICTED FELON D’Souza you and Red Team are touting?
@CharlieGee:
Yes.
@CharlieGee: “So who is the bigger threat? Obama or ISIS ?” Yes
@Richard Wheeler: Do you have to be wrong about everything? Could you try to get something right one time? Where have I mentioned D’Souza in anything?
I’ll bet you are really proud of the leadership of your president.
The next time a Presidential hopeful like Obama announces that he “basically wants to transform America”, would it be asking too much of the liberal lame-stream media to inquire as to how (s)he intends to effect this transformation?
When two morons like Brokaw and Lehrer ponder openly on live TV on “how little they know about this [Obama] guy”, would it be asking too much of the likes of B&L to do their jobs, find out, and report on their findings?
It is clear Obama not only hates America, but is showing his true Muslim sympathizing colors. When was the last time you heard Obama say “he was proud to be an American”? When was the last time you heard Obama say “he has faith in Americans?”. It is amazing how this America-hating, inexperienced, neighborhood agiator, who never ran a lemon-aid stand, became President, What is more amazing is that he was re-elected.
@Richard Wheeler: Hey Rich, one of the Syrian refugees relocated to Louisiana is now officially missing. I hope he is out visiting in your area, I’m sure your crowd will welcome him with open arms. What is the name of that group again? Mercy for Animals? Yep, that fits.
@Charles S. Opalek, PE:
Isn’t it interesting what you can do if you control the voting machines?
DrJohn,
His record in the Middle East certainly indicates that something’s not quite right. Here are some of the major purposeful mistakes:
— Removal of Egyptian President Mubarak while supporting the Muslim Brotherhood of hoods.
— Decapitating the Libyan President Moammar Qaddafi and completely de-stabalizing North Africa. Getting an Ambassador killed in the process.
— Attempting to remove Syrian President Bashar Assad by proxy.
There has been something very wrong with supporting the Muslim Brotherhood, Syria’s anonymous rebels and the AKP party in Turkey.
All the while micro-managing and restricting all military action from Jarrett’s office.
Mubarak was removed by an Egyptian populace uprising. Support of the Muslim Brotherhood was an effort by the Obama administration to retain influence in Egypt subsequent to the Mubarak government’s collapse.
The same was true in Libya, though in the case of Libya we actually intervened on the side of the rebels. I seem to recall republicans raising holy hell because the Obama administration was trying to keep out of the situation and kept out too long. Were they wanting Obama to provide military support to Gaddafi? The answer to that question would most definitely be no. Republicans were in a big hurry to arm rebel forces, while the Obama administration was dragging its feet, pointing out that we couldn’t be sure exactly who the rebels were.
And Syria… Did John McCain, Lindsey Graham, Mitt Romney, and other republicans not blast Obama for failing to arm the Syrian rebels? They sure as hell did. They did so beginning in early 2012 and kept it up for months. McCain wanted us to bomb Bashar al-Assad’s forces. They then flipped, changing positions the moment Obama acted.
What does all of this add up to? Political opportunism? Republican schizophrenia? Plain old-fashion stupidity, combined with memory problems? You tell me. I’m sure there’s a story. No doubt turning all of this back on Obama, somehow.
@Greg:
Mubarak was shoved out by Obama, who wanted the Muslim Brotherhood to take over. Thank God for Sisi, who would have none of that crap.
@Richard Wheeler: He is one smart felon. He sure has Obama’s number and called him out to a T.
But, how smart does one have to be to see through the liar Obama? And, where’s the shame for a critic of Obama to be charged of a felony by the most corrupt DOJ we have EVER seen?
I would certainly trust my wallet laying on a table with D’Souza in the room more than I would leaving it with Obama or Hillary.
@Charles S. Opalek, PE: He was a liberal. That’s all they care about. Just like their support/cover for Hillary. She’s under investigation by the FBI for OBVIOUS violations of the laws concerning a government official securing classified information and they STILL cover for her. If Charles Manson ran as a liberal that would give away college and health care, they would whole-heartedly support HIM.
@Redteam:
Ooooo…. they don’t have any goats, do they? Some of these jihadists don’t show much mercy to their goats.
@Greg:
Well, chalk that up to another of Obama’s great successes, huh? Obama dumped Mubarak, a sound ally of the US, for the Muslim Brotherhood who, as soon as they had power, told Obama to go stuff it.
First, we had no business intervening in either Libya or Syria. Next, there was a time when the rebels to arm were there and identified. Obama, by his usual standard (unless he is violating the Constitution) stalled, waited, pondered and fiddled. By the time he though he might offer some small arms, the scene was so convoluted, confused, chaotic and tumultuous that no one could possibly discern who might not turn those weapons on us.
Keep in mind, this is all due to Obama creating the “power vacuum” so many liberals complained about but seem oblivious to.
So, what is Obama’s excuse for not arming the Kurds? What’s his excuse for not launching 200 sorties a day where they actually drop their bombs? Russia and France seems to be able to find targets… in fact, France got their targeting information from US (might as well… we ain’t using it).
Aside from the lives lost in these tragedies, the worst thing about them is the embarrassment of Obama and Kerry going out and showing their ignorance. When is Kerry going to deploy the folk singers?
@Greg:
The alternative was to support al qaeda, which was the direction Obama chose, which resulted in the ambassador being killed. Obama has a solid record of supporting al qaeda and ISIS.
THANK GOODNESS now we know we didn’t have anything to worry about when the Syrian refugee was settled in Baton Rouge and then disappeared the next day with no one ‘knowing’ where he went. It has now been learned that he went straight to Washington DC. Wonder if he had a scheduled meeting there and when and where and with whom did he schedule this meeting. I’m assuming the meeting was probably scheduled before he left Syria.
@Bill: You seem to be even more upset than usual Bill.
RT Lock your doors—are you packing?
@Richard Wheeler: Not necessary here, only 9 refugees left in La. Understand the remainder of the 10,000 are going to be sent to Southern Cal. Hope you’ll give them a proper hello out there.
@Redteam: Maybe he invented a clock and went to show it to someone?
@Richard Wheeler: Yeah, well watching people die despite repeated warnings and predictions of the outcome of, if not actually being one, ACTING like an Islamic sympathizer tends to being out the worst in me.
@Redteam: If we weren’t saddled with Obama, we would be fighting ISIS and winning, so Obama is the greater threat.
