Comtained

Fifteen months ago Obama, in a attempt to backtrack on his "JV" assessment of the ISIS terrorists, promised that we would "degrade and destroy" the Islamic State. Like most everything that our Muslim Apologist in Chief says, this was horse puckies. In the interim the air power of the United States has been as effective as a fart in a windstorm. The number of our air sorties has been de miniimis and the rules of engagement imposed by our petulant president meant that two thirds of these planes returned without dropping their munitions.

It was only after the recent terrorist attacks in Paris that Raqqa, the capital of the Islam State, was bombed by the French. This shamed America into bombing 100 tanker trucks ... carrying the oil that finances these terrorist scumbags. However we first dropped leaflets warning the truck drivers that we were coming. To show us what war really is, Russia, the following day bombed 500 tanker trucks ... without warning the drivers ... and flattened 15 oil refineries. Is this what B.H.O.'s strategy of "containment" means? That we don't attack any meaningful ISIS targets for over a year and we need to be shamed by France and Russia into doing something militarily meaningful in Syria ... long after we were told that we were going to "degrade and destroy" ISIS?

I guess we can't trust anything the Blowhard Barry promises ... but, then again, we should have known this for years.
