    Pardon? Since Obama himself, his administration, and our allies and the 'enemy' all believe that the ME wars are not only over but that Obama himself officially launched a new one the other day . . . yes, Barack Obama is still a War President. Only now he gets to gear up for it (learning how to do so in the process) and accept all the responsibility for his actions as War President; and the whole world knows by now how very much Barack hates both of those things . . . learning as president and taking responsibility for -- well -- for anything negative.

    There is no leadership as far as Obama as a Commander in Chief. He blatantly disregards the Joint Chiefs. He changed the rules of engagement to only allow us to shoot the enemy if they already shot us first! That's not a war, that's suicide. It's horrific how horrible of a leader Obama is. The public may not realize it, but he will go down in history as the worst military leader. Hence why every poll has him ranked as the worst leader since WW2.

    See below

    Here's the most meaningful poll, as this poll is the one our election system uses:

    The mission was accomplished. We defeated the enemy, captured the enemy dictator, dismantled their military, captured all hostile cities, and crushed the enemy's manpower. What part of that suggest we lost to Iraq? lol 1 million casualties to Iraq. 5,000 to the US.

    that's a very short and narrow view, not reality

    Obama believes that he is so brilliant that he doesn't need military advice from the experts. When was Obama in the military? He has said over and over that he will not send ground troops which means he is not serious about winning. He just wants to waste more taxpayer money by only going so far and then withdrawing. ISIS will be stronger than ever then. What a loser he is! You are right. This is Obama's war. What is so sickeningly hypocritical is that if this were Bush, Libs would be calling him every name in the book. I guess a war is only acceptable if Democrats start it.

    Unfortunately for the Republicans, they also won't trust Cruz, Santorum, or any of the rest of the cavalcade of idiots the party will run to lead during a war either.

    I thought the enemy was terrorists. I thought the purpose in going into Iraq was to keep those WMDs out of the hands of terrorists. Wasn’t there far more to the Iraq mission than just toppling Saddam?

    Here’s a question to ask… Would any of this be going on in Iraq if we had just left Saddam in power? He was a bad and evil guy; but so is Kim Jong-un, Putin, and the Iranian leadership. But removing him from power left a gaping hole in stability in that country.

    In his speech today he said,,''Let me be clear, no ground troops!'' Last time he said ''Let me be clear'', everybody kept their own Doctors.

    We shall see..., I hope you are right.

    Aside from the Code Pink antics in the U.S. House of Representatives (Anyway I think it was in the House) the other day, where are all the leftwing anti-war protesters who were so very, Very ANGRY at Bush for going to war against Iraq but who are as quiet as church mice now that it is Obama engaging in a War Venture in the Middle East? I call that . . . interesting. Cindy Sheehan wheeeeeeere ARRRRRE You????

    I'm hoping most Americans realize Obama's strategy of using airstrikes and hoping the local militants will do the ground fighting to achieve his stated goal of degrading and destroying ISIS will not work, as many military experts have stated. People hear another lie coming from Obama. We will eventually need to send in combat troops. Period.

    I do not believe Obama armed the free Syrian army which is why Hillary is saying she wanted him to. And against the advice of his military advisors who also wanted to supply the free Syrian army. Congress just voted to arm and train them now.

    Well my understanding is that Benghazi-gate was really all about just that, an Obama/Hillary/ Gates sanctioned, illegal operation to funnel U.S arms (or U.S. secured arms) and weapons systems through friendly Libyans and then from them into the hands of Syrian rebel factions. That's why no meaningful help was sent to the Ambassador, because Obama and his gang did not want to risk revealing the nature of their illegal operation.

    Now whether or not any of that is true, I have no idea. But it sounds good, doesn't it?

    Well from recent polling it seems evident that already only his hard core inner group of increasingly bitter dead-ender type supporters are still inclined to believe anything that comes out of Barack Obama's lying mouth nowadays . . . which is probably another reason why his polling numbers are drifting through the political gutter.

    I believe that is a very real possibility but has yet to be proven. The SD maintains the diplomatic facility's mission was diplomatic only. And they claim they did not know the CIA annex was operating near by. If the SD was working with the CIA the Senate Intelligence Committee was not informed. I believe the CIA was attempting to round up the thousands of Stinger missiles that went missing in Libya.

    Obama is, indeed, a total ****-up, but anyone who was paying attention KNEW that. All this clown ever was, as far as we REALLY know, was some kind of ward-heeling, jive-ass "community organizer"... a senator with only about a year on the job. Truth is, he didn't know Jack-**** about anything on a national scale. We got exactly what we deserved -- TWICE -- and now we're going to have to live with the consequences for another long, miserable two and a half more years.

    Everything is so ****ed-up now, half the population is getting welfare-suck of one kind or another, and most of the other half hasn't had a decent raise in pay in over six years. Interest rates on savings are pathetic, and thanks to a Federal Reserve central bank system that cares only about keeping the stock market bubble pumped-up, it is bone-head stupid to even try to save money, so most people won't do it any more. In a simple sentence -- WE ARE ****ED, and we aren't even being kissed first.... Thank you, Idiot Bush, and thank you, Idiot Obama. Two clowns DO make a circus!

    Not entirely true.

    He beat worthless meddling moderates. Please follow the link to understand
    what a worthless meddling moderate is. Worthless meddling moderates aren't
    Republicans. They are worthless meddling moderates. Please follow the link to
    understand what a worthless meddling moderate is.

    I encourage all worthless meddling moderates to learn what they are.

    He didn't beat viable candidates, i.e. he didn't beat members of the reasonable
    right or a member of the Tea Party. Am I wrong? No, I'm not.

    He beat a worthless meddling moderate.

    When the Republican party stops catering to worthless meddling moderates then
    they will become a force to reckon with.

    If they cater to the worthless meddling moderates they won't matter a hill of beans.
    And I mean beans that have been eaten and passed through the voter.

    There is no other kind of moderate (puke). There are only worthless meddling moderates.

    I hope I made my point.

    There is no other kind of moderate (puke). There are only worthless meddling moderates.

    In the meantime he's been one of the worst presidents in the history of
    the US. Am I wrong? No, I'm not.

    There is no other kind of moderate (puke). There are only worthless meddling moderates.

    The best part is that you know that he's been a terrible president and he's in the
    running for being the worst presidents ever. Am I wrong? Not a chance.

    There is no other kind of moderate (puke). There are only worthless meddling moderates.

    Personally, I would feel better if someone else was in charge period. I can't think of anything I want this man in charge of.

    Someone tell me what he has done well?

    I'll bet I can predict how the left wing partisan hacks will answer that one.

    Why would anyone trust Obama as a "War President", he lacks the understanding and experience to even understand the definition of "war".

    I could say the same about the Right. Hasn't been a great President since FDR.

    Reagan was a disaster yet the right worship him.
