The War on ISIS: Tulsi Gabbard, Semantics and the Real Conflict

By attacking President Obama over word choice, Hawaii's congressional representative is losing sight of what really matters. The unseemly and very public semantics battle that U.S. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard has been waging this year against President Barack Obama had largely been one-sided.

Gabbard, a second-term Democrat, has become a relentless critic over the past month of the president’s restrained characterization of terrorists from the self-proclaimed Islamic State (or ISIS or ISIL). And her criticisms have come through some surprising channels: The bright-red Right, where this sort of thinking has long been a staple for Fox News, talk radio and the like.

Rep Tulsi is swift becoming our new American heroine here in Hawaii . This wealthy water boy for the Kenyan , French born Iranian billionaire , Pierre Omidyar , OWNS more than half of Hawaii’s total media assets at this point . Are you aware of that ? Push back on this overly wealthy weasel

I wonder if she might become a Republican or Conservative in the future?

Another liberal rag in Hawaii carrying water for Democrats. Congresswoman Gabbard is a two tour veteran of the Iraq / Afghanistan conflict. I’ll take her testimony over the armchair stenographers at Civil Beat.

I watched Rep. Tilsit today, was impressed and delighted to see and hear a politician with her poise and expertise. Martha McSally is another congressman with the same demeanor....a new breed of women head and shoulders above Clinton, Warren, Pelosi, women who make good role models and are Americans who love their country and put their lives on the line for us and their nation.

I don’t believe Gabbard ever served in Afghanistan sir . It incenses me to see some Frenchie-Iranian billionaire rip on her . We should cause him to have to eat his money . What a POS

By the tone of this rag, she is already being setup to be whipped into shape to toe the Democrat Muzzie loving line. It is nothing more than liberal politics of picking sides based on nothing more than who supports the liberal plantation. That plantation is due for a huge surprise when the first people who are eliminated if a worldwide Caliphate does come to be, are the lemmings that got them there. The only bigger liars than liberals are the Muslims because it is their scriptual duty to lie to infidels to advance their faith’s (cult’s) desire of world domination.
