we now have combat troops being placed in harms way, because one George W. Bush, who and his crew created this mess, will have blood on there hands if one of these citizens gets captured.
I think it time to get the guy with the tax payer funded pacemaker to lead the way, with his Wyoming Coboy hat. Then have Fix Noise reporting from the front line during the charge. Have all of the rest of them and there right wing ideologues put on a uniform even the ones on Jebby's election team, and go and fight the fight and try to clean up there mess----------- Since they (ISIS commanders ) are the same ones on the deck of cards they handed out in there war based on lie------------and finish they job they created, with there Shock and Awe. What could possibly go wrong
