Now I see why Peter King was complaining about Obama’s jacket. It doesn’t look good in oppo ads…

The biggest Obstructionist in over 150 years of United States political history is airing an attack ad talking about “no strategy”.

As I have said before, the very existence of McConnell, people like him and FOX “news” says so much more about the American electorate than any bulletin, report or fact-sheet.

Yeah…we’re a sorry bunch.

Obama does not have a strategy, McConnell doesn’t have a clue. Obama will develop a strategy in time but Mitch will always remain clueless.

Grimes should air a counter ad saying “McConnell’s only plan to deal with ISIS is to sit down in front of their invading arm and pout.”

I have a strategy, Turtle Boy.

I strategize that we carve Satanic runes into your limp wrinkly chelonian penis, in hopes that BEELZEBUB HIMSELF WILL RISE FROM THE PIT OF HELL TO FEAST ON YOUR SCHLONG!

Good strategy?

Yeah, god forbid a president should think and gather information before acting. After all, if the last one had done that, there would never have been a power vacuum for ISIS to exploit.

Be a real ‘Murican! Shoot them guns! Swagger that a**! We don’t need no stinkin’ facts!

I dunno. When the PBO says stuff like: “We don’t have a strategy yet” it makes good opposition ads, but he’d basically telling them “Hell’s Fury is in the works, and that takes coordination and timing and we don’t want to tip our hand just yet.”

So they can run these ads, but when ISIL gets pants’d next month, the ads will look worse for the people who ran them than for the dems.

Bad move on McConnell’s part. This is a sign of desperation on his part. He wants to make this campaign about Obama, whose not popular here. But neither is McConnell.

Grimes has too many counter ads she can run against this. More importantly she can use KYNECT, which is wildly popular here, whereas McConnell isn’t. This might be a good time for Grimes campaign to hit McConnell hard with his wanting to repeal KYNECT/AHA/obamacare.

Gosh, I am always interested in the military opinions of politicians who got kicked out of the Army. For me they rank a very close second to the military opinions of politicians who actively avoided service. And third to armchair pundits with columns in national newspapers. Riveting stuff.

Or so that he and his republican buddies can take the credit for it before obama even executes it. .

McConnell prefers the old fashion way of starting wars. Lie about it until everyone thinks there are no other choices.
