BO's Dismal Record On Terrorism

Ofcourse there is always a risk. However the decision in such a life and death matter should not be politically based. I am not concerned with the political profit, just the fact that he delayed the go ahead out of fear of what failure would have done to him politically. He should have taken the risk when the intelligence and opportunity became available.

Suit yourself, and thanks for the discussion.
 
The immediate race baiting reaction is typical and pretty disgusting IMO. The liberals hated GW Bush because he was white? This is the type of stuff that turned me away from the democratic party a number of years ago.

Nearly everyone hated Bush by the time he left. He had the worst approval ratings in history, because he was the worst President in our lifetime. There is no doubt that Obama was treated worse than any other President from that start. From "You lie" at his State of the Union to GOP obstruction of policies even when they formally supported them to the scummy "Birther" nonsense there is no doubt that Obama's race was a factor in the disrespectful treatment he received. You are not fooling anybody by denying it.
 
Irrelevant.



Iraq was reasonably stable. Now it is not.

You mean as long as Iraqi's were kept busy killing and maiming Americans it was "reasonably stable". As soon as we left they turned on each other and while they were busy at each other throats ISIS took over half the country. With Saddam gone, Iraq was never stable by any measure and won't be until the Iraqi's make it so.
 
the liberals hated bush because he was the worst president in our history, had nothing to do with color. You were never a democrat were you.

I come from a family of democrats, but as a pro-family, pro-business, advocate for a strong military, and generally an open-minded but moderately conservative thinker, I realized I could no longer support the democrats. I was just reacting to your post when you immediately accused the other poster of thinking BO was a bad Commander in Chief because he is black. Sorry, but the demagoguery turns me off. Just because one thinks Obama is the worst thing to ever happen to the U.S. please don't accuse them of being a racist - especially if you don't know them or know what's in their heart. It's really a cop out that liberals have tried to use far too often.

How long was the decision delayed for?
 
This is ironic. The same BO who chided George W. for attempting to export democracy to Iraq is attempting to export American advantages to the rest of the world via open border strategies and mass importation of middle eastern refugees.

Ya know. I wish there were a presidential candidate who wanted America to be great again and not be most interested in fulfilling their ideology at the expense of the American people. Wait, you say there is one? We'd better vote for Trump, hadn't we?
 
They are fixing it and we are helping them do it. That is far different than invading and occupying which we agree was disastrous. I believe that Hillary will continue with Obama's policies like she says she will.

this situation is not fixable by western military force.
 
BS....obama is by far, the worst President in history!

John Adams passed a law making it illegal to criticize the US government, Andrew Jackson ignored the SC so he could commit genocide against a people he had fought alongside in battle, and James Buchanan laid the groundwork for most of the divisions that caused the Civil War... and you think Obama is the worst President we've ever had. Hilarious.

Donald Trump ****s over small businesses and crditors for laughs, and regularly abused eminent domain laws to steal the private property of American citizens who didn't want to sell their property to him. Donald Trump doesn't give a damn about anyone but Donald Trump. **** him.

That should be the Democrats' new bumper sticker.

"Donald Trump: F this douche"

Nobody said that. Morris Day needs to get back to singing for the Time.
 
How did Obama turn America gay exactly? Gay conversion therapy? Airborne toxins? Subliminal messages?

I woke up today feeling extra fabulous, so I have Obama to blame for turning me into a homosexual apparently
 
Thanks Obama!

Thanks to The Queen of Corruption and BO, they invented ISIS.
 
That's what Obama believes also. That's why Iraqi forces are the ones going into Mosul right now.

which is why that we still have troops in Afghanistan and Iraq, no doubt. i support bringing them all home.

Of course no one said that. I was being facetious and making the point of how silly it is when libs immediately label anyone who disagrees with BO as having racist intent which is what the guy insinuated. Now let me get back to listening to "Jungle Love"!
 
Suit yourself, and thanks for the discussion.

Thank you as well. Not all my criticism of presidents is ideologically based. I am a conservative for sure, however I am an indpendant and will criticize politicians on either side where I disagree with them. I had much criticism for George W. Bush for instance on the immigration issue.
