In all fairness to Obama, what did you expect him to do? Seriously?

Really, especially since he would never negotiate with terrorists.

I agree. As much as this sucks, I am not sure what Obama was supposed to do. This guy had been kept hostage since 2012.

I feel horrible for his family. But I am sure they had come to grips with the outcome a long time ago.

I must say, the guy stood up and took it like a man. I can see Obama crying like a bitch if it happened to him. Although, he would not have to convert to Islam, so he would be OK.

Gee, I don't know, maybe offer to trade five top terrorists for Foley? Worked for Bergdahl.

Give Seal Team 6 the mission to bring him home while he was still in one piece. We knew where he was.

Many options exist in response to the murderous thugs:

Unleash the military to attack ISIS;

Negotiate and hand over even more Guantanamo prisoners in exchange for the two reporters held captive;

Go back to Washington and assemble Congressional leaders and national security leaders to formulate a response;

Simply state the murderous bastards need to be quartered and buried with hog offal.
