The hysteria around ISIS taking over the whole world is all too obvious, and there are pages and pages of conservatives trying to convince us of that. Hell, even on THIS thread they're STILL doing it.

You too, talking about the children.
Defense spending went from .09% to 16% thanks to the fear of ISIS being spread as noted in the recent GDP report.
And it wasn't just Conservatives either.

Obama authorized ground troops and military equipment back to the ME to fight the good fight.

Then they'd turn their guns on the United States of America, storm our shores, rape and pillage all of our towns, and convert those of us that they didn't manage to decapitate into Muslims.

Guess not, huh?
Nooooo. Obama's Ebola was going to kill us all.

Funny how once the mid terms were over, politicians and media suddenly lost interest.
