Our president let this happen. Let genocide happen. Remember that folks, remember it.

He was up in arms when Assad did it...haven't heard a word from that pussy in the white house about these attacks.

Couldn't agree more. We should have put boots on the ground long before this. In fact, we never should have pulled out of Iraq.

I still contend that the biggest failure of the Bush administration was not in toppling Saddam Hussein, but it was in the failure to build Iraq up to the point where it could police itself and stand on its own two feet. If that was never possible then Saddam should have been left in power.

But understanding that, Obama made a bad situation even worse by pulling our troops out. He left an even bigger power vacuum than Bush did.

Obama was dealt a very bad hand by the Bush administration. A point every democrat loves to acknowledge. What they don't like to acknowledge is you have to play the hand you're dealt, and Obama has played his like shit.

ISIS crossed a red line long ago, the chemical weapons usage is just the latest example. It's another example of impotent foreign policy.
