    Speaking of, are we just going to ignore the "ISIS is contained" remark by the leader of the free world hours before the Paris attacks?

    Huh? Where the hell did you get this from? Are you even aware how long the marines have been around?

    Yeesh, first Putin is the hand that feeds ISIS, now radical Islam is the reason "the Marines came into existence"-- there's some really wacky shit being posted today. And god forbid you knuckleheads actually provide any evidence or a cogent explanation for your half-cocked statements.

    Yep. Ignoring this is part of the reason the world in this mess. The candidates need to be forced to talk about this.

    Is it too late to impeach him? Can you believe there was another terrorist attack on another continent under his watch?

    A reference to the Barbary Pirates? Except the Marines predate the Revolutionary War and the problem with pirates started after the war.

    Predate? When do you think the Revolutionary War started and the Marine Corps was founded?

    Why do so many people think the militant suicide attack in Kenya happened today? It's bizarre.

    So you don't give a shit about Paris or any of the other attacks since Obama was elected. That's what I figured. The problem, of course, is that when the President of the United States is purposefully ignorant of a global threat, it makes it basically impossible to address the threat in any substantive way. Will you start to care about the victims of terrorism again if a Republican is elected next year?

    Pretty sure the Marines came over on the Mayflower.

    Doesn't that also apply to Republicans and climate change?
