    For those of you w/o too short a memory,that would be none other
    than George Walker Bush,our 43rd President.Son of George
    Herbert Walker Bush, the 41st President and former Director of
    the CIA, a Congressman and also 43rd Vice President of the United States.
    Both Bush graduated Yale.
    Both Bush were men of seriousness.Skull & Bones aside.
    When Bush the Younger { also The First President with an MBA
    from Harvard } Talked he meant what he said.Said what he meant and
    meant what he said. He walked the walk.
    Not so with the current President. Who loves to talk.Or is it now more
    like gabbing.Like gossiping little old ladies on rotary phoned from the 60's.
    It was established early on that Bush the Younger was to be considered a
    War President.Being thrust into that role due exclusively to the catastrophic
    even of 9/11.
    Now we have a situation which marks Obama's tenure as Commander-in
    Chief as a Failure.Isis { newly created name } is about to take over yet
    another major strategic spot { the city of Kobani in Syria which borders
    Turkey }. This is exactly the strategy that worried the Pentagon.Or supposedly
    so.That Isis is doing what the Afghanistan al Qaeda or Mujahideen was
    resurrected for in fighting Russia decades ago. To go after border areas.
    So why is Obama not helping the Kurds as Isis moves in for kill.
    The Kurds have been politely requesting arms and weaponry for months.
    All they get are trinkets.Air Strikes { like what FIVE per day } are a joke.
    What is wrong with Obama.Is Obama that belligerent against doing the
    right thing against an evil aggressor he is willing to act cavalier in the face
    of utter slaughter.
    People are starting to talk. This ain't no movie.
    I get it that Obama ain't No War President like Bush 43.But give us a break.
    The United States has never acted in such a cavalier almost backstabbing
    way before in the face of Defeat.
    The Thrill of Victory and the Agony of Defeat - ABC Wide World of Sports.
    This is not Sport ... Obama. Even if it was ... This Country in the least demand
    some Marquess of Queensberry rules.

    Arming the Kurds causes problems with Turkey, who is a NATO partner.

    Things aren't as simple as simple people want them to be.

    NATO .... TOMATO or better still SMATO. NATO is used for all kinds of
    excuses,to invade countries as Clinton did and then put in charge his Buddy
    { General Wesley Clark who he also personally promoted to a 4 star general }.
    Was Turkey a problem in the Kosovo War.
    Turkey ain't no choir boy.Greece withdrew it forces from NATO in the 70's due to
    NATO member Turkey's invasion of Cyprus.
    Granted Turkey is 2nd only to the United States in NATO personel.
    But the United States is no longer a Superpower.Obama personally saw to that.
    He has emasculated our Military and is drawing down forces almost weekly.
    Set to lay off 30,ooo soldiers by 2015.Our Navy is currently at a 1917 level
    of preparedness and the Pacific theatre just put in command a Female who is
    not a pilot.That's a first.A Non-pilot in the South Pacific calling the shots.

    Not sure bombing empty buildings should be called WAR. More like mid - term marketing for a failed president.

    So Obama prefers to blow up a truck here and there four or five times a day, claim victory and walk away while ISIS kills and murders the Kurds in the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Reminds me of Poland in late WWII. The Polish Warsaw uprising against the Nazi's and the Russians stopped their advance allowing the Nazi's to destroy all those who might offer resistance to the coming Russian take over. Britain and America stood by without lending a hand to the Polish patriots.
    Why doesn't Obama fly in the materiel they desperately need? Obama is doing the same thing that Roosevelt did. Allowing an ally to be destroyed.
