I like that he hasn't gotten us more involved in Iraq by sending in combat troops. That is a lose/lose proposition. I'm for the status quo when it comes to ISIS. If they are as badass as everybody thinks, then Europe, Iran, Russia, Egypt and maybe Israel can handle them. The truth is that they are all capable and at more risk than the USA. I don't put value on leadership that repeats past mistakes.

I'm confused, does that mean you're supporting Obama on ISIS? Because I don't think what you said matches where we're heading.

What ME foreign policy? Being reactive does not equal a policy.

What Obama does in the future that might get us more involved (by that I mean ground combat troops in significant numbers), I would still be against. This is the mistake that I'm referring to, if it were to happen.

Not an Obama supporter but I'm glad he seems really reluctant to engage in a ground war against an entity because they cut some heads off of people that placed themselves in harms way.

You need to brush up bud. SpecOps and SF's are on the ground and it is boots whether you would like to think so or not. Fact. If you don't want ISIS or any form of terrorist attack on our soil(which has already happened) then we have to take the fight to them.

If OBAMA's ME policy was toppling the political establishment in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Turkey, Lebanon, Tunisia, Morocco, Libya, Jordan, Oman, Yemen, Algeria, Turkmenistan,Armenia, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Georgia, and Tajikistan THEN MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
Clearly the Obama loves the political progress they have achieved in Sudan, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Djbouti, Somalia, South & North Sudan, CAR, Chad, Niger, Mali, Uganda, and DR Congo.
Clearly they saw something that worked in Africa and imported it to the Middle East.

Zero is the Arab Jerry springer, creating new terrorist groups that even the old terrorists don't want to associate with.

I'm sure the Obama Administration will negotiate with these new terrorist groups so they understand our position on things. Just like Obama embraced Hezbollah in its war with Israel he certainly can show the Shiites and Sunnis how to fix their religious discrepancies.

Ok, let me be more specific. Ground combat troops in significant numbers (like an invasion force).
And I ain't buying the horseshite that we have to go there to keep them off our soil. As a matter of fact, no terrorist act has killed and maimed as many Americans as as what our losses have been in Iraq. We spend billions on a Homeland Security Dept, FBI, CIA to gather intelligence & protect us, it just seems really stupid to me to sacrifice more American lives on an assumption.

It seems really stupid to me that Your president Obama would not try and agree on a status of forces agreement with then Al Maliki. It seems really stupid to me that his actions are speaking for itself, as in, he does not care about our border(which terrorist will exploit) He doesnt care that they are growing at a staggering rate and does not want to take the fight to them. These airstrikes are not doing anything because HE TELEGRAPHS EVERYTHING. This is the most uninterested, moronic POTUS I have ever seen. The worst in History.

If anyone kills Americans as in Benghazi, Syria(decapitations)that is an Act of WAR. This POTUS has no balls and you know it. No one likes war, but, thats what our brave men and women volunteer for, is to unselfishly fight for the freedoms of the American people.

Yea, using troops to win a war is lose / lose only to an ignorant liberal.

Leading with the chin by promising no ground troops is a winning strategy. Obama is the GOAT.
