    I realize that it must be intensely humiliating for members of the Obama foreign policy team to see President Trump making good on his promise to eliminate ISIS. The rapid fall of the Jihad Caliphate is showing up the bloody fecklessness of the Obama administration, which, after the President ridiculed ISIS as the Jayvee, was forced to lamely account for its failure effectively dispatch it.
    But Marie Harf has gone the extra mile into absurdity in dealing with the shame, actually trying to credit her former boss, President Obama, with the victory. She was, in other words, “Harfing.”
    The Urban Dictionary now lists “Harfing” as a verb:
    Harfing --- To say or assert something so patently stupid and preposterous as to generate widespread mockery. Named in honor of State Department Spokesperson​

    [**Snip**]
    President Trump changed the rules of engagement and put military officers, not lawyers in charge.
    Poor Marie Harf has her job as a contributor to Fox News now that she no longer is State Department spokeswoman. (Her current successor at State, Heather Nauert, used to be a Fox News on-air personality. Musical chairs.)

    I can’t believe that FNC hired this mindless Marie Harf. Why put a twit on the air that has zero credibility? It detracts from the already tarnished credibility of Fox. They don’t need to take on more water.
    The truth of fact is that once the Obama “Gravy Train” from the US ended i.e., Obama supplying ISIS with logistics, training, arms and CIA help when Obama left office, ISIS Collapsed. Then there is the fact Obama's 'Rules of Engagement' hurt every aspect of our military where an Obama attorney was needed to approve of out soldiers to fire back to protect themselves much less dropping ordinance on ISIS. Please note that the number of U.S. military KIA nearly tripled under the leadership of our esteemed former president Obama.
    IMO, the reasons radical Islamic terrorism flourished all throughout the Obama years can be summed up in the following Obama quote, "This broader challenge of countering extremism is not simply a military effort. Ideologies are not defeated with guns, they are defeated by better ideas." Those barbaric savages couldn't care less about "better ideas". The only thing they understand is extreme force. Trump ditched Obama's foolish 'Rules of Engagement' that were only getting our guys killed and unleashed the full force and fury of our military might against these medieval savages. Case closed, lots and lots of dead savages, and those that weren't killed rapidly surrendered.

    Yes, let’s ignore the battles from 2013 on where Obama oversaw the gutting of ISIS and deaths of the majority of their fighters in favor of Conservative revisionist history lies where ISIS suddenly, magically collapsed after the Orange Fuhrer was elected.

    Have you listened to that Bimbo talk. Sounds like a Valley girl. Tell her to go gag on a spoon.

    Harf is spot on.

    But, that draft-dodging IMBECILE (Donnie Trump) has made a career out of taking credit for the success of others.

    Harf is spot on. :salute:

    1) Trump loosened the insane restrictions Obama placed on the military.

    2) Less than a year later, ISIS has collapsed.

    Yes, please ignore all the battles under Obama from 2013 on that gutted ISIS and killed the majority of its fighters and instead lie and claim ISIS magically started collapsing after the Orange Fuhrer was elected.

    Lying seems to be exactly in the Rightwing wheelhouse.

    Go ask the military. They'll tell you Obama's rules of engagement were a joke and real progress was only made under Trump.

    What battles? Why would Obama fight battles with the JV team he could barely acknowledge existed until he had to, and then like the Brown Appeaser he is call them ISIL when the entire universe called them ISIS?

    pack of Lies.Obama both gave away locations with his big mouth
    and also timelines.He purposedly changed rules of engagement so that
    sorties were mandated to call in and request *strikes on Isis Location.
    What in sam hill are you thinking.


    * fighter pilots had to call and request bomb strikes beforehand.
    This during the height of sorties { actually less than a dozen a day }

    Osama bin Laden was killed in 2011. Two years after Obama was inaugurated.

    In 2001:





    That really sounds like a man hot on the heels of America's "Enemy Number One".

    The ONLY thing Trump did was wash his hands of the responsibility as Commander And Chief.

    The majority of ISIS's territory losses and casualties occurred under Obama.

    Right, the battles of Ramadi, Tikrit, Fallujah, and Mosul didn't happen on Obama's watch. They all magically occurred and were won the day the Orange Fuhrer was sworn in.

    And the Right has the gall to say the Left revises history?

    Sorry, doesn't fly...yours is revisionist history....The Big O was a dismal failure at everything he did except sowing divisiveness while MSM covered his butt on everything and treated him like some kind of god. LOL Ask the military and see to whom they give credit...❄️

    With the significant change of letting the military decide the strategy instead of micromanaging it from the WH.

    My son flies a FA-18 C and did two six months tours of duty bombing ISIS under the Obama administration. 80% of the time when they had ISIS in their sights they were denied to kill the enemy from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. It was the Obama White House who were running the war against Obama's JV Team.

    I have a nephew who flies a FA-18 E and did a tour over Afghanistan and Iraq during the Obama administration. Same story...80% of their bombing mission were denied by the Obama White House.
