... John Kerry, the US secretary of state, continues the tradition of urgent-sounding vagueness about what the US plans to do:

"I know the president of the United States is prepared to make key decisions in short order. And as he made clear earlier, options are on the table right now, and at the appropriate time I'm sure you'll hear from the president."

[Blood of Tyrants]

Obama golfs while Iraq burns.

MSNBC reporters imbedded with al-Qaeda militants give it to you LIVE Blow by Blow

[Graewoulf]

Well, well, well.

Taliban Mullah in Chief Obama is finally getting his chance to silence the skeptics of his Obamadrone Military Strategy.

Will the advancing hordes of Islamic Terriorists be held at bay by the mighty attacks from Obamadrones?

Will Taliban Mullah in Chief Hussein Obama prove that he didn’t need no stinking Status of Forces Agreement with Iraq?

Wiil the VA be ready for the sprained finger casualties of the Obamadrone Joystick Pilots during and after this epic, high-tech, razzle-dazzle battle?

Sit back folks and marvel as the old-style boots-on-the-ground bad guys confront the mighty Obamadrones of Obamanation!

MOVING FORWARD!

Over to Iraq Please, Sir!

If history is any indicator:

MSNBC reporters embedded with AQ militants...

I hope you're being sarcastic.

He won’t drone them. no kids to kill. Unless he waits till they get to the city...THEN he’ll drone them, get a bunch of kids killed, court martial the pilots, ban the drones to all but the Justice Dept and go golfing.

" options are on the table right now "

What options would that may be Kerry ?

A good old sit down talks with the terrorist ? and give them what they want with a trade ? another scandal in the works ?

[Graewoulf]

You could be right!

I also forgot that these I-Terrorists are now armed with the latest and greatest small arms weapons that our tax dollars could purchase. No sense in risking Obamadroning them!

[easternsky]

maybe can trade them the rest of gitmo

[Ingtar]

I’m waiting to see what happens when they run into the Iranian Revolutionary Guard about to enter from the other direction. Whatever happens now, Iraq is toast.

[American Constitutionalist]

Watch your behind Vladimir Putin, he's known to be a rump rancher.

[American Constitutionalist]

Yeah, what a waste of all those people in the military who died to free Iraq and all the resources wasted.
In hindsight ? we should have never went into Iraq now after we have known what we know now.

[Norm Lenhart]

Wait till the stingers...OOPS! we can’t bomb them now can we! He can’t risk losing anything to the weapons he gave them.

He ...ahem...retired the 117. The 22 isnt true stealth and the B2 is too expensive to risk.

so he will just give Iraq back most likely. YAY AMERICAN POLICY UNDER OBAMA!

[American Constitutionalist]

Obama clearing a straight path to Israel for those al-Qaeda militants ? not to far from Syria from Iraq to Israel.

[Starboard]

LOL! That horseface looks a lot like Kerry.

[Deek]

The solution to military problems in all of these back-water countries is to stop production of Toyota Diesel pickup-trucks.

With the possible exception of the camel, that seem to be the only means of transportation available to those guys.
