The March to Oblivion



There are all kinds of stories on the internet telling the story of the absolute depravity and cruelty of ISIS in their unimpeded march across Iraq. The slaughter of the Yazidis on mount Sinjar only being the latest.
While liberal/progressives wring their hands and bleat about the Palestinians and beat their chests over the lack of "compassion" for illegal immigrant unaccompanied minors 30,000 to 40,000 Yazidis cling to a mountain facing death if they stay where they are or descend into the hands ISIS to be butchered or sold into slavery.
All we get from this president and his administration is just more incompetence and malfeasance.

We haven't really won a fighting war since WWII and even then we gave up most of eastern Europe at the Malta conference. Korea was fought to a stand still, Kennedy's promise at the Bay of Pigs went unfulfilled and resulted in a slaughter. Johnson and McNamara continued to draft and send men to Vietnam even though they had no desire to win the war. Jimmy Carter sent numerous "strongly worded" messages to the Mullahs of Iran that were promptly laughed at. Obama stands by while Hamas pounds Israel with rockets and ISIS marches through Iraq raping, beheading and killing at will. The one thing in common with all of these is that they're democrats.

Even if our air support comes to help the Kurd s push back against the IS it's to late for history to look kindly on the dithering of Obama and his cronies who failed to try and stop the genocides that the Islamist extremists are committing in Iraq.
Obama's answer to everything, domestic and foreign, is to stand by and do nothing.

After Multiple Policy Failures By Obama Hillary Grilled on 'Gay Marriage'

As Obama's foreign and domestic policies weaken the U.S. at home and abroad the vetting of Hillary for 2016 begins.
Of course the most important questions for the liberal/commie media is how she feels about "gay marriage".
10 Times NPR’s Terry Gross Tries To Get Hillary Clinton To Explain When She First Supported Marriage Equality
WASHINGTON — Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton got into a testy exchange with NPR’s Terry Gross on Thursday, as Gross tried to get Clinton to explain her views on marriage equality over time.
When Gross attempted to get the former secretary of state to explain whether she had changed her mind over time on the issue of marriage equality or whether she supported marriage equality previously but felt that she couldn’t say so due to the popular and political opposition.~snip~
ISIS is getting ready to march on Baghdad while the current administration dithers over their response, personally I'm not holding my breath that Obama will take decisive action to prevent Iraq from being over run.
We also have a humanitarian crisis at the border with 10's of thousands of children swamping U.S. immigration agents with no end in sight. The continuing scandal of the VA, Bowe Bergdahl and the Taliban swap, the IRS and plenty more if you want to list them all. 
While all this is going on the questions the media seems to be most focused on is Hillary's views on "marriage equality".
Is this the kind of stuff that we as Americans are going to base our decision on who to vote for?
The media has gone from being a irritant to becoming a danger to our republic.
