Rep. Barbara Lee, the Oakland Democrat who for years has sought to repeal the war-making powers that Congress granted to Bush in 2001 and 2002, said Obama acknowledged that Islamic State poses no imminent threat to the U.S.

"ISIS was nowhere to be found in Iraq until after the Bush administration's invasion and occupation," Lee said. "We can't forget that history, because now we have to make hard decisions that hopefully will not in 10 years (lead to) an even greater problem."

Actually, IS is the child of Obama, the DNC,

rape, beheadings, genocide and destruction
of Americans and America’s (ex)Allies.

"ISIS was nowhere to be found in Iraq until after the Bush administration's invasion and occupation," Lee said.

ISIS was nowhere to be found in Iraq until Obama withdrew unilaterally against the advise of the outgoing Bush administration and the military commanders on the ground. No Ms Lee - you idiot communist - ISIS is a direct result of Obama's feckless administration.

I would not be at all surprised if Barbara Lee signed up to fight for ISIS.

Half of the terrorists in the US are probably on her side of the bay.

Hey Babs... “Al Qaeda was nowhere to be found in Afghanistan until after the Clinton administration’s bombing of those aspirin factories in the Sudan, along with attacking some tents with cruise missiles on the very day Presidential Bodily Fluid Dumpster Monica Lewinsky testified...,”

Re Barbara Lee and the American flag on Mars. She always has an affiliation to conquer something for the Reds. Been a commie since she worked for Dellums, another Cuban/Grenadian affiliated Marxist supporter.
