| ISIS threat scrambles candidates' 2014 playbook, brings out Dems' hawkish side | |
| 2014-09-06 | |
[FOXNEWS] The rise of the Islamic State threat has, in a matter of weeks, turned the 2014 midterm election on its head, leaving Democrats and Republicans alike scrambling to show their hawkish side on national security and terrorism -- shelving for now the partisan sparring over ObamaCare, and the multiple scandals that dominated headlines and threatened to define the B.O. regime.
... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... have supplanted the IRS, Benghazi, NSA data-gathering and the VA on the lips of candidates -- and the minds of voters. | |

| #7 Hawkish side? You can't trust them. They leave people behind. They will not have your back. They will not answer the 3:00 a.m. call. They will forget the veterans when they return. The ROEs of engagement will be neutering and be determined by a "green environment" or some UN, Human Rights organization, ACLU, Washington attorney, etc. Screw them. |

| #4 The Electorate actually voted Obama into Office. What does that say about the judgmental skills of the average ass-crack at Walmart? The US will get what it deserves. And you can send Dwayne or someone with the intellectual capacity of a Biden to handle it. Wear the Uniform with pride and your family can live in a trailer off base too. |
