Whine when Obama does nothing then when he does do something they just keep whining! Like a bunch of babies in a room all whining and crying together for someone to come change their diapers. If it wasn't for THEIR screw up WE WOULD NOT BE IN THIS SITUATION!
Want some cheese to go with YOUR whine???

It is truly mind-boggling how incompetent this President really is. The fact that millions still support him is a damning indictment on the future of our country.

I have to wonder if this was Obama's built in escape hatch. Proclaim to the country a willing coalition knowing no willing coalition exists, thereby giving him the escape he needs to say, " Sorry, the world doesn't want to help Iraq and Syria and there's nothing I can do to change that."

This is Obama's new "red line" that he never intends to defend.
Well that would be refreshing considering he has blamed Bush and the republicans for almost 6 years when he can't get his way or screws up.

Obama has made zero effort to cultivate relationships with our former allies. We have no allies now.
Obama ignored Thatcher's funeral but went all out for Mandela's (South Africa has never even been a US ally).
Bugging Merkel's personal phone calls, insulting Russia with a gay delegation to Sochi, trying to dictate to Netanyahu, and on and on and on.

Resign Skippy. Go play golf. Crazy Joe can do a better job.

We actually had some allies that believed in US leadership in those days.

Turkish government says it will not allow a US-led military coalition to use its air bases in order to launch attacks on IS terrorists’ hideouts in neighboring Iraq and Syria.
Maybe that's where Turkey has been storing all that black market oil they have been buying from ISIS? I wonder how much these terrorist groups are paying Turkey to allow new members to pass through Turkey to Syria? Turkey is to ISIS what the Cartels are to illegals.

I'm all for taking out ISIS, but I'm beginning to think we may just have to let the problem fester until we get a new President.

This idiot can't tie his shows, much less run a country. I hope the drones who elected a slogan are satisfied with their handiwork.
It is projected that Obama's "plan" will take years and will go into the next administration. He will just drag it out and let someone else inherit the mess he created (ISIS and the instability in the ME).

Incredibly, that will be one of the lesser messes he'll leave us with.
