ell I should not be surprised, the fuckup-in-chief is as usual blaming others for his fuckups.

1/20/17 cannot get here soon enough

...after 6 years, Obama has had plenty of time to make his mark and change the downward spiraling course set by the Bush administration. But instead of reversing the trend towards an Imperial Presidency, he's pretty much completed the process, and  cost us much of the respect the world still had for the USA.

So who do we blame for this?
The answer is, We the People, are responsible for allowing the caliber of our elected officials to drop so far down into the gutter.
With voter turnouts as low as 8% in major elections, We the People, are responsible for not caring enough.
We the People, have turned our sight away from the rampant corruption that bleeds our country dry.
We the People, have to own up to OUR responsibility to insure we put the best most qualified people in office.

Of course, I don't expect anyone to do a fucking thing to change the course of our country. We'll point  fingers and wring our hands, the Left will blame the Right, the Right will blame the Left, and of course, most everyone will blame the Jew.
Those who truly DO have the ability and are in a position to do something, are far too self-serving to sacrifice anything, and those who WOULD do something, are powerless to act.

 What Hath the People Wrought?

where 12 year olds erase his "line in the sand" and kick sand in his face just before Barry runs away to find "safer" sand...on the golf course.

He is completely out of answers on the home front and abroad. The deterioration in American power, leadership and influence are both stunning and frightening at the same time.

..........It started under Bush and has proceeded under Obama. G..W Bush's invasion of Iraq has set off events in the Middle East that will have very negative consequences for the World for a very long time.

Why? We should stay put, and let whomever is fighting fight it out. Overtime, fighting will stop one way or another. Is there an immediate direct threat against us? Thnk not.

I've not heard any of the neocons who are criticizing Obama, now, answering them. Who about those here?   ;)

we believe that we can fix a broken country that is historically unstable and wont change without genocide. Its stupid to think that any amount of money or a large peace keeping force will change it.

"It's stupid," and arrogant!

They both want to tell EVERY ONE how to live and can't understand why it doesn't work. They just try again.  
     That said I do feel sorry for the common people in countries like Iraq, who mostly just want their children to grow up and have a chance to raise families. After decades of suppression and being treated as disposable objects I can understand why they don't fight for their country, fight these militant groups that are by and large such a tiny part of the population.  
      I can tell you right now some of the early images of Iraqi army soldiers laying down their weapons when ISIS rebels first appeared and them being rounded up and executed was heart breaking but not surprising. I couldn't imagine it happening to a US military group, I would bet almost every last one would die shooting. But they are a beaten people. Fixing it can't happen from the outside, they need a leader who can fight for their freedom, earn it and give them back their self respect. And then rule with compassion and fairness, something I am not certain any Sunni or Shia can do in consideration of the other religious sect. We can't fix it for them but our presidents have been saying they can for 20+ years. The idea that their is an answer short of genocide of one of the competing religious groups will be almost impossible.
