Saddam had a good handle on them in Iraq. Dubya said he didn't want anyone to focus on anything else except Iraq. You do remember him not following through with Afghanistan. don't you.
You do remember Saddam not following through on agreements and UN mandates for years too right?
The only plan I want to combat ISIS is a plan to do nothing.
If that's failure, hooray for failure.
obama also enjoys being a failure, so you're in good company... I beleive it's the democratic party's unofficial motto, we strive for failure, and they are extremely successful at it...
Frankly, ISIS loves people such as yourself who attempt to build on irrational fear and anxiety.
You should get paid for fronting their PR. Talk about the Bogeyman.
You are correct, all those people they have beheaded aren't really dead and it really isn't ISIS's goal to take over the world, with America being first in it's gun site... Yes, you definitely qualify to be a democrat...
We can only hope ISIS takes out all of the democrats first and makes the world a better place....
Stamp out ignorance, behead a democrat....

What folks fail to realize or actually miss are the people shaping his policy failures. They too see all they do as a success. They've all bought into his sway. They would fall on the sword if he asked.
Given the way men and women gain power in America, I cannot respect their efforts because each has an agenda or desires to build a legacy.

WHY did that policy NOT change after 9/11? Shouldn't eliminating those responsible for 9/11 have become priority #1 on that date? And we KNOW Iraq had NOTHING to do with 9/11 as the Dick rarely if ever missed an opportunity to tell us.
