WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama on Saturday proposed a broader long-term strategy to confront Islamic militants in Iraq, who have surprised U.S. intelligence with the fast pace of their approach on the Kurdish capital of Irbil.
Obama warned Americans that the new campaign to bring security in Iraq requires military and political changes and "is going to be a long-term project." He wouldn't give a timetable for how long the U.S. military involvement would last, saying it depends on Iraq's political efforts.
"I don't think we are going to solve this problem in weeks," Obama said. "I think this is going to take some time."
The president said Iraqi security forces need to revamp to effectively mount an offensive, which requires a government in Baghdad that the Iraqi military and people have confidence in. Obama said Iraq needs a prime minister — an indication that he believes he's written off the legitimacy of the incumbent, Nouri al-Maliki.

The question had a two part answer, and by golly, you got both parts correct.
“Did we really vote for this guy?”

Not I, said the blind man. I have done many stupid things in my sojourn on the third rock, I have made mistakes that cost me money, I have made mistakes that cost me my peace of mind, many, many stupid things I have done but I have never been even halfway stupid enough to vote for Barack Obama. He was so obviously a disaster seeking an office in which to happen that I even voted for John McCain, a man I believed would be an awful president, simply to try to prevent the worse disaster of having Obama elected. I still believe McCain would not have been AS BAD as Obama. I purposefully don’t use the term better than because that might imply that there would have been something good about either one. I say not as bad in the same way that I would say that being bitten by a Copperhead is not as bad as being bitten by an Eastern Diamondback. I certainly don’t desire either one but sometimes you are forced to choose.
Presumably all these appropriations pass the Republican House.

The POtuS takes work breaks from his vacation schedule.
Of course, this damn Presidentin' us interfering with his vacation.
"Politics is the art of delaying any decisions until the issue is no longer relevant."
You’re right. He rambled and didn’t make any sense when answering the lame questions from the Washington Drive-bys. Obama hasn’t a clue about whats going on in Middle East. I am so worried and amazed that he’s President.
Continued attacks on the government we support.
Now I remember one George W. Bush warning the Press, the DimoSatanist and nation that the coming war on terrorism and Isslamic murdering thugs would take YEARS and YEARS, not a few months. The Press smashed him for it as the time went along. Now the head Satanist of the DimoSatanist Party admits this is not a short term thing and will take TIME!!! Haven’t heard PMSNBC or the Klinton Kommie network bang on the one with horns in his head.
Paging Cindy Sheehan, Code Pink, Nobel Prize Committee, Chrissy Matthews, Bill Mahr, Barbara Lee, Hollywood Liberals, and the rest of the antiwar vermin. Your “magic negro” (LA Times) is going to war.
He’s Carter cubed and now trying for a gentler Bush II.
LOL - Africa has Ebola and we have Obola - I would much prefer Ebola.
It’s not too late. I bet they thought that while Vienna was under siege by the moslem hordes. They kept resisting though, and then help showed up, the moslem hordes were pushed back and never fully regained strength until today.
Wow 2 minutes early.
I told you he would not be late...GOLF TIME AWAITS.
No one else came with Valerie Jarrett and the Chicago crime syndicate, plus every pal of Soros, plus Rev Wright’s pals etc. I wonder why the MSM never covered all the folks and the millions Rev Wrights’s daughter and Obama’s pals defrauded the Gov out of?
Your tag line fits me to a T and the GOP does not hate me.
