Wy are they trying to drag the Obama administration in to the Yemen Raid?

Drumpf is reversing all of Obama's executive orders at a rapid pace. Are we to know believe that they will follow a military plan that was outdated by the previous administration without vetting the dynamics of the raid?

Since Obama's vetting of refugees was so pitifully inadequate, why go with his choice of nations to watch out for?

But you know the answer: Because they refuse to take responsibility for their own fuck-ups.

who and what he was during the election. He and his minions will be the ones who will bring Johan Galtung's prediction of the collapse of the US into reality. I doubt that we will even make it to 2020 as as the number 1 world power. Angela Merkel is already regarded as the leader of the free world. It is amazing that the country responsible for WWI and WWII would rise back up and actually become the leader on the free world by 2017. And now Alt-Right has put a target on her back to move on and bring her government down as well.

If there's a hurricane, it's Obama's fault. Price of gas goes up. Obama's fault. Everything is Obama's fault. Facts don't matter.

arrested in Bowling Green. They came into the country in early 2009 barely into Obama's term. They were always under observation and never a threat in the U.S. (they were planning attacks in Iraq).

According to the FBI, Alwan entered the U.S. in April 2009 and has lived in Bowling Green since his arrival. Hammadi entered the U.S. in July 2009. He first resided in Las Vegas, then moved to Bowling Green.
