Obama Had Intelligence on ISIS for — wait for it — One Year

Obama Had Intelligence on ISIS for — wait for it — One Year

This is, as my husband says, enough to piss off the Good Humor man.

Apparently President Barack ‘What Me Worry’ Obama, the Slacker-in-Chief hasn’t been reading his intelligence reports about ISIS for the past year. 

A former Pentagon official told FoxNews that while past presidents would be personally briefed on intelligence, Obama preferred to read the reports on his own, but found it curious that he not return to the intelligence community for further information or clarification.

The source further claimed that when the President drew the ‘red line’ in Syria regarding the use of chemical weapons in 2012, the information was “exquisite.” Yet Obama dithered. The report continues:

“[we] were ready to fire, on a moment’s notice, on a couple hundred targets,” but no order was given. In some cases, targets were tracked for a “long period of time” but then slipped away.

The Pentagon source also questions the length of time it took to launch a rescue for ISIS-held hostages in Syria, including photojournalist James Foley. The Sunday Times of London first reported the delay to be 30 days, and the official reported that the White House kept asking for more intelligence.

Meanwhile, this still happens to innocent people — Christian, Shia Muslim, and Yazidi — across Iraq and Syria.

    Gosh, Kim, why are you worried about this? The MSM reports all the news it thinks is fit for you to know — like JLaw and Katie Upton had their nekkid pix hacked on iCloud and posted (and Perez Hilton has already apologized for re-posting one of JLaw — after she said she’d have prosecuted anyone who did that); and a 7th round draft pick by the Rams didn’t make the final cut to the 53 man roster. What else could you want to know?
