Seriously. The stuff I see online about "ISIS is infiltrating the southern border" and "ISIS is planning an attack on American soil soon" is just laughable to me.

Do people really think that organization has the capability of doing that?

I think it's a joke we're even considering further Iraq involvement. At some point, the people of the country have to take responsibility for their own freedom. We've already wasted too much there.

Conservatives fear mongering. It's how they pump up their base.

Drudge is just a huge troll lately. His site was my internet home page since like 1999 but I finally switched it to WSJ earlier this week.

Ok. At what point do we take responsibility for our own?

They could, if we don't take action. Why take the risk of letting them grow?

Because the truth that Big Mike wasn't shot in the back blew a big hole In the MSM's story over in Da Lou, so that's the next boogyman/racist that needs a 24/7 beat down

Just think if they could dig up a racist boogyman?'

We need a boogeyman and a reason to continue the war on terror.

Nobody thought 19 men only armed with box cutters could kill 3000 people either.

There is a small risk that that they have the capability and we should be aware. Some people blow things out of proportion for political reasons. That Romney had "binders full of women" did not mean it would be the end of women's rights if he was elected, but many acted as if that would be the case.

Because it's the latest best chance to get into Syria. Sounds like maybe more work needs to be done in Iraq as well.

The desperation evident by these outlandish conspiracy theories surrounding ISIS is as entertaining as the sheople who actually believe this nonesense.

Actually, the binders seems to have served women well.

This is why there is so much ISIS hysteria and why I feel we have a moral obligation to act.
