Here’s a smidgen from Dick and Liz Cheney’s op-ed in today’s WSJ:
In one Arab capital, a senior official pulled out a map of Syria and Iraq. Drawing an arc with his finger from Raqqa province in northern Syria to Anbar province in western Iraq, he said, “They will control this territory. Al Qaeda is building safe havens and training camps here. Don’t the Americans care?”
Our president doesn’t seem to. Iraq is at risk of falling to a radical Islamic terror group and Mr. Obama is talking climate change. Terrorists take control of more territory and resources than ever before in history, and he goes golfing. He seems blithely unaware, or indifferent to the fact, that a resurgent al Qaeda presents a clear and present danger to the United States of America.
…
The tragedy unfolding in Iraq today is only part of the story. Al Qaeda and its affiliates are resurgent across the globe. According to a recent Rand study, between 2010 and 2013, there was a 58% increase in the number of Salafi-jihadist terror groups around the world. During that same period, the number of terrorists doubled.
In the face of this threat, Mr. Obama is busy ushering America’s adversaries into positions of power in the Middle East. First it was the Russians in Syria. Now, in a move that defies credulity, he toys with the idea of ushering Iran into Iraq. Only a fool would believe American policy in Iraq should be ceded to Iran, the world’s largest state sponsor of terror.
You should go read the whole thing.
Harry Reid apparently did and then decided to go to the Senate floor to bash Dick and Liz Cheney and pretend like Obama is going to fix the current situation in Iraq:

They control it because first, Bush capitulated do Dem demands on how to fight a war without killing the enemy, followed by liberals/Obama putting in place even more suicidal ROEs that emboldened said enemy and killed American soldiers.
thats why there are terrorists in Iraq. No more, no less.
Is he kidding?!
In the face of this threat, Mr. Obama is busy ushering America’s adversaries into positions of power in the friggin' WHITE HOUSE!
it was a fast moving bus !
It is amazing that Reid can talk while he has BHO’s Johnson firmly in place.
RE: Harry Reid really didn’t like today’s decimating op-ed from Dick and Liz Cheney
Waiting for Dingy Harry to accuse the Koch Brothers of funding Dick and Liz in 10,9,8,7.....
Harry Reid - Dumbest critter on Capitol Hill.

The photo that was printed with it in today’s WSJ stopped him cold!

And the most effect/adept Majority Leader in at least 100 years.
The GOP should be paying him for private lessons in how to get things done...and how to stonewall that which you don't want done.
The man is a genius.
And the reason why is that he has the entire propaganda machine of the MSM at his beck and call.
The iconic photo of VP Cheney giving 0bama the eye.
