Obama has a strategy. He will down play Isis again. He will say all the right things that will tickle the ears.. and do nothing. Obama wants it to play out.. his biggest problem are the reporters who tell us what is going on over in Iraq and he will dismiss it as a small problem.

I'm just fed up with our asinine 'police actions' over the past 60 years, I'd like to see a Constitutional Amendment prohibiting the POTUS from sending combat troops anywhere for more than 60 days without a formal declaration of war by Congress.

Gee, you mean the enemy here isn't conveniently residing in one geographic area where eliminating them would be like shooting fish in barrel like the "kill them all NOW" crowd seems to believe?
That's a nice way to put it, except that our last president's "proactive" actions caused the power vacuum that's ultimately allowed ISIS to gain the power that it's managed to gain. Being proactive when it comes to matters such as waging wars can backfire in the worst ways possible.
Only problem with your assumption and conclusion is Clinton was in office when the terrorists first bombed the trade towers , trying to knock them down.. hitting the USS Cole and other terrorist attacks. What brought that on?? Clinton's words?
But but but, wait a minute, so why did we go into Iraq, 9-11, nope, supporting terrorists, nope, WMD's, nope, will there ever be a good answer to why we messed up the ME to the point it is today.
I'm sure Odummy is pleased with his ISIS buddies...plus he gets to work on his acting skills pretending like he's upset by the beheading....will be a nice break from his 2 year golfing vacation.

Good answer?
Extremely doubtful.
I suspect the only truthful answer those responsible could give is because they could.
Sorry about the loss of the journalist. Can we maybe try a trade next time? 2 lawyers or say 4 Obama supporters in exchange for one journalist? Or how about 100 criminal aliens?
