In an interview with NBC’s Matt Lauer that aired on “Today” this morning, President Obama said that the people of the Syrian region will eventually discover that ISIS is nothing but a blind alley, and the terror group will be long gone by the time his daughters reach his age. That must be what White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest meant last summer when he said he “wouldn’t put any sort of timeline” on the president’s latest strategy to bench the terrorist JV team ISIS.
Fox News host Greta Van Susteren found the dismissal of ISIS as a “blind alley” hard to believe.
Pres Obama seemed rather dismissive of ISIS to NBC Lauer: "Isis is just a blind alley" — that's it?

@justice2just @TrickyMackey @greta Odd..Hillary said the EXACT same thing about GOP attacks on 90's scandals. "blind alley for the GOP".

@greta Well, Mr. O was rather dismissive of ISIS with Stephanopoulos ("they're contained") the day before Paris atrocities.

@greta this govt can't be this incompetent, can it?

@greta His tactic is to ignore ISIS and "learn to live with it".

@greta ISIS is his legacy, and turning a blind eye to it will never change that.

@greta Obviously. He did not see them coming and still does not see the threat. Ideology can be blinding

@greta What else can he say about the organization he failed to contain or properly engage. Gutless Commander in Chief.

@greta his only threat is a strong wind and rain at a golf course.
