The POS in OUR White House is protecting his homies..traitor, mizzie collaborator will not touch his jihad muzzie brethern. Who is goinng to grab this ahole by his skinny neck and drag him out of the White House...he IS an enemy of We the People. Had I read a report to the contrary, that Special Forces WERE successful on this mission, that would take obozo off the hook. Col. Oliver North was on Greta tonight,and said that we should be attacking ISL’s command bases..kill them where they live & operate from. Is oboma’s advisers so stupid for not trying the simple strategy as the Col. suggested? Like Col. North said,you can see these strongholds from the air & take them out. But you hear not a word about this strategy, though we should NOT be discussing our strategy on TV, you don't tell the enemy what you plan to do.

And so the limp wristed bast*rd makes a series of hollow comments today about the beheading of the journalist and then goes back to playing golf. Cameron of England, learning tht the ISIS terrorist who did the beheading had a British accent & is a citizen of Britain. Cameron cuts short his vacation and comes back to 10 Downing Street to deal with the issue. Damn obozo! Oh, that's right, he is already damned, just ask Lucifer.

Obama doesn’t do OPSEC. Gotta be a demoralizer to anyone in JSOC. Obama will sell them out in a heartbeat.

I call bullsh*t. Just tryin’ to cover their a**es - after the fact. (Maybe they’ve learned something from Benghazi - they are STILL wrong.)

Finish the story...

We've squandered too many resources on special operations with little to show for it.

My budget will transfer funds from special operations to gay and lesbian OTC.

I know I should not be shocked any longer, but the sheer, unmitigated gall of releasing this now just amazes me. Who care about him, who care about the family, it is all about making sure the Royal WE come out of this looking ok.

But hey, according to CNN there were I think 18 air strikes today against targets in Iraq. That will make everything ok.

Yes, it’s pretty bad when looking like Jimmy Carter is thought to be an upgrade.

I don’t think the mission ever happened. If the United States really wanted the hostages back, they could’ve called the local exterminators (Mossad).

But then why would the Israelis help us after we stab them in the back by the US urging the Israelis to surrender to the recent rocket attacks. The current administration is totally inept in foreign policy for the mid east.

I would not be surprised that the Mossad knew exactly where the photographer was and opted to let the Americans experience the blood thirsty savagery of Islam.

Yep, likely it didn’t happen. OR Obamas Walking Dead Pentagon minions set up a phony Mission just so he can say “he tried” I suspect the intel coming in was that heads are about to be separated from necks.

WH top brass: “We CARED, we TRIED. Intel not good.”

What’s there to say from everyday Americans, even if he believes the tale?

More Top Secret missions revealed to the world (aka terrorists) by the dunce-in-chief. I’m reminded of the Son Tay Raid. The commandos trained for months, they all kept their mouths shut. Hell, they didn’t even know the mission till until a few hours before they were in the air. Then Bull Simons told them where they were going. Although they found no prisoners, it was successful because our POWs started getting treated better and most were relocated to the Hanoi Hilton. The media basically ignored it because they wanted the war ended, especially Uncle Walter. The big difference back then? We had a real commander-in-chief. Now we have a commander-in-nothing.
