Obama doesn't warns of U.S. action as jihadists push on Baghdad

There, fixed it.

Nowhere in the body of the article does Obama make anything that might be considered a threat. He simply refused to rule out not making a threat, or something like that.

Not passing judgment on whether we should or shouldn't get involved, just commenting on the typically misleading headline, which infers that Obama is strong and decisive, when he clearly is the opposite.

This is further fruit of Obama's childish and ill-advised meddling in the Arab world, beginning with Tunisia. Good Lord he has screwed up so badly.

A lavender line in the sand, and a scathing letter with a warning in UPPER CASE BOLD. If that doesn't work, make no mistake, we will escalate to upper case bold italic. Period. Full stop.

Well Yeah, one thing is for sure, it won’t be cursive.

Let it burn...every soldier sent over there is a waste of time and money, and sometimes lives. I give zero sh!ts about Iraq.

Send the troops to our southern border instead.

“How many #Hastags can a B-52 carry?” asks Obama.

An aide reply’s “We have to put them in #Hastagclips, and our #Hashtagclips can only old 9.” “Our 30 round #Hashtagclips were made in New York and they are illegal there now”.

You may not care about AQ in Iraq...but they care about you.

Once upon a time, people could afford not to care about something thousands of miles away. But not anymore, not since September 11, 2011, when a “regional” dispute wiped out 3000 Americans as they waited for the elevators or ate breakfast at their desks, and then killed those who braved horrible odds to try to rescue them.

It’s not your granpa’s isolationism anymore. ISIL has already proclaimed that the US is on its list of targets. But that’s ok, Bambi will surrender long before then, so we can then have the fun of watching mass beheadings.

“The White House signalled on Wednesday that it was looking to strengthen Iraqi forces rather than meet what one U.S. official said were past Iraqi requests for air strikes.”

Don’t the Iraqi’s have an air force? How hard is it to locate a convoy of Toyota’s in the open desert and attack it?
If the answer is that they don’t have the pilots, I’m sure that the Iranians or Russians would be delighted to send in some on the QT.

Well, he might even turn them over to the UN for discipline.

Kinda hard to go after the people that you are holding hands with in Syria. Right? Ignorant ass Obama.

I want no new wars, but in this case, maybe some airstrikes would be okay, but wait, we can’t go after our Syria allies can we? After all, they will be shootin’ those weapons Obungle supplied them with AT US.

What a freakin’ Obungle mess.

Wag that freakin’ dead dog. More Americans get to die for Obama’s stupidity and progressive idiocy.

This time he is really really upset so much so that he is willing to draw an extra wide red line.
