  1. Asses. Assholes.
    Sorry. Language means everything. I hated when obama and his stooges defied the common terminology ISIS and insisted on ISIL. It was affront to every
    American who had more sense.

    Do we need more proof that democrats side with islamists?

  2. So ya wanna talk about names?
    How ’bout splitting hairs? How’s that going for ya?
    It’s about as useless as tits on boar-hogs.
    They’re 7th century mindless, cave-men out to maim, mutilate and kill anybody who isn’t like them.
    Period.
    You can put any name you want on them. It does not matter. They hide behind the cover of names, women and Political Correctness, but the bottom line is that they all have the same goal.
    Kill Israel and Kill the West. It’s all about world conquest and domination.
    The name doesn’t matter.
    Yeah, it’s just that simple.

  3. obama was never wrong about anything except his determination to DEFY God, Country and all that is decent by being a lifelong liar, thief and slothful loser.

    Judgement Day will come for him. God can decide how good a speaker Zero is then.

  4. Nobama hated the jooooossssss, he wanted them
    destroyed. That’s what his muzzie spring was all
    about. He tried to do the same to Egypt and
    Syria as well. Then he treated Jordan like SHIT.
