Simply put, I'm not worried about ISIS. I don't know what else to tell you. But there's nothing you can say to make me fearful.
We have people just like them here and close by MS13.......wait until they become brothers with a fight.

Nah, only to his front door. Oh, and then he took that back and said if they kill him, oh well, because everybody's got to die sometime. He doesn't care, and that's fine. It's probably a good thing he's not in the military.

Yet you probably think we should take in and grant amnesty to other nations' illegals coming over our border, right?

So are other nations and their citizens our problem, or not? Can't have it both ways.

He would have been better off having no press conference at all rather than say nothing. Solutions to ISIS are extremely complicated, not sure if we were ever in a position where attacking one enemy would directly help another. This will take time and we should not go it alone

Ok so. You do not care about other Americans being attacked by Isis so you prefer you taking care of yourself and everyone else takes care of themselves

Situation is chaos and another 150 people were executed by the Head Choppers. I guess we are waiting for the next video of a Journalist that has lost his head. News is bad coming from Russia's move on Ukraine, and not so good with the Chinese buzzing our planes.

On the upside for Obama - he has another Fund Raiser this weekend and a wedding, hope he can work in a relaxing Golf Game so he can "think" and "clear his head".
The Pres. comes out and tells the press the truth. Its a lot better then WMD and we have to take over to advance Democracy.

I like the way it is being handled. I like the idea that we are using air power. Maybe the House and Senate need to get involved. Oh wait they are hiding out trying to get reelected.

I'm a former 11C1P....That's an airborne infantryman. I was in the 1/509th and the 4/325th ABCT in Vicenza, Italy.

I did my time so don't come at me with that military crap. That's irrelevant.

Simply put, I don't buy every threat just because Fox News anchors are hysterical about it.

Please list these options and tell Obama to follow your plan.

To answer your question, my answer is "I don't know"

What I do know is this:

Radical Islam is a militant, politically activist ideology. One thousand of them die, one thousands more will pop up like cockroaches.
