62. Bernie and Elizabeth on ISIS, bluestate..

Sun Sep 14, 2014, 09:14 PM

Sep 2014

Bernie stands with the President on this "Enormously complicated issue".. as he calls it. He disagrees with staying out of ISIS like some around are clamoring on about.

As he stated it's an "International effort" and guess what.. "they have to put money in it too."

Hartman and he talked about one republiCon saying.. they'll "blast him if it doesn't work and ask why he didn't do it sooner if it does." Sounds like a familiar whine.

Senators Warren and Sanders are on board with the President..

Elizabeth Warren: It's Time to Destroy ISIS

"ISIS is growing in strength. It has money, it has organization, it has the capacity to inflict real damage. So when we think about a response we have to think about how to destroy that," Warren told Yahoo's Katie Couric.

Warren agreed that "time is of the essence."

"We need to be working now, full-speed ahead, with other countries, to destroy ISIS. That should be our No. 1 priority," she said in a wide-ranging interview promoting her latest book, A Fighting Chance.

It's a completely ignorant comment void of reason. DCBob Sep 2014 #9

Ignorant of what? ZombieHorde Sep 2014 #13

They believe it is complicated because they have no compass. ZombieHorde Sep 2014 #57

Oh I think Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders have the intelligence and the moral compass to Cha Sep 2014 #58

Why do you think that? nt ZombieHorde Sep 2014 #59

By paying attention to what they've been saying over the last few years, obviously. Cha Sep 2014 #60
