Chicken Hawk Republicans shifting ISIS blame to Obama, away from Bush’s Iraq mistake! What we need is another War!!!

Ever notice how nothing Republicans do is ever considered a mistake? So the ethnic cleansing and ISIS takeover of Iraq is due to a void left by Obama? Not Bush? jsonline:

Rep. Paul Ryan said that the rise of ISIS stems from poor decisions made by the Obama administration in Syria and Iraq, and that the group was now filling "a vacuum" in the area. 

Nice try but wrong president. The war drum party of GOP chicken hawks continues to shift the blame they so rightly deserve, while pushing for a return to those same disastrous interventionist policies that got us to this point in the first place. And that paranoid fear center in their brains has them running for cover over the news of another beheading.

Rep. Paul Ryan (at) a luncheon meeting of the Milwaukee Press Club and the Rotary Club of Milwaukee had just been notified of a news report of the execution of Steven J. Sotloff ... Ryan said the United States needs to conduct a campaign to defeat the Islamic State, the jihadist group that purportedly beheaded a second U.S. journalist Tuesday. "On behalf of civilization, on behalf of our freedom, we have to deal with this threat comprehensively and thoroughly now. It is a terrorist organization unlike any we've seen before," Ryan said. "They're like al-Qaida 3.0."

The Blustery War Mongers Return: Have we forgotten how comical it was the way the Bush administration always backed away from their empty war threats? Apparently so. Wisconsin Republicans are now ready to jump right back in with our military. It wasn't just Ryan that wanted to sacrifice more of our kids in interventionist Middle Eastern wars:

Post Crescent: Sen. Ron Johnson says the Islamic State extremists reported to have beheaded a second American journalist are evil barbarians who must be defeated. Johnson says Tuesday's video highlights the need for the U.S. to intervene in the Middle East to stamp out the terrorist group. 

All blustery empty threats to appear tough and take down Obama. 

Is there anything these sick frightened Republican chicken hawks won’t try to exploit? 

ObamaCare signup delay same, even shorter than Bush's Medicare Part D delayed roll out.

I think the following says it all about the phony partisan anti-Obama GOP forces in Congress. And no, they can't have it both ways:

Flashback to 2006: When Bush extended an enrollment deadline.

NBC News/MARK MURRAY: As Republicans complain about the Obama administration’s latest deadline extension for Americans to purchase health insurance, Democrats are countering with this reminder: The Bush administration did something similar in 2006.

Back then, as it was implementing the Medicare prescription-drug benefit Bush had signed into law, the GOP presidential administration announced it was waiving penalties for low-income seniors and those with disabilities who signed up late.

As one Knight Ridder report put it at the time: The move follows a recent administration decision to allow the same impoverished beneficiaries to sign up for Medicare drug coverage until Dec. 31. "In other words, you can apply after May 15th without penalty. And that's important for low-income seniors to understand," President Bush told a group of older Americans in Sun City Center, Fla., on Tuesday.

There’s one key difference between Bush’s Medicare prescription-drug benefit and Obama’s health-care law: Democrats didn’t try to scuttle the Medicare law’s implementation (especially since some of them had voted for it), while the same isn’t exactly true of GOP actions regarding the health-care law.

Why does Obama have to go on vacation so often during our continuing economic crisis? Well, he doesn't.

"Obama's on vacation again" outrage is just another lie and distraction we've put in graph form here. You didn't really think Republicans need leadership in Washington from Obama every time he went on vacation, did you? This proves my thesis; Republican like small government because they're lazy "on the government dole" freeloaders. Any questions?

 

Bush Ignored Bin Laden Threats

Rachel Maddow interviewed Vanity Fair's contributing editor Kurt Eichenwald, who's explosive perspective on the months leading up to 9/11  confirms what many of us suspected. Check out the detailed article here.

George W. Bush's new book gives economic advice...

Not only are the Republicans trying to replicate their rhetoric and policy advice from the early 1990's, but they're about to see their tax cutting hero George W. Bush's new book on economics. Am I missing something?

Rachel Maddow is just as appalled:

Onion predicted economic collapse by Bush.

Loved this piece then, love it now. Found it cleaning the clip file out, and thought it applied even better today. Bush tours the US disaster area.....
