Ted Cruz adviser Amanda Carpenter retweeted this:
@NRO editors: "Obama told us al Qaeda is on the path to defeat. Now it’s literally on the road to Baghdad." http://t.co/lBnUQRH2RZ

Perhaps Obama will read about it in the newspaper … or at NRO:
Al-Qaeda, the Obama administration has told us repeatedly, is on the path to defeat. Now it’s literally on the road to Baghdad.
This week, al-Qaeda in Iraq, now known as ISIS, retook Iraq’s second city, Mosul, where it put up its last spasms of resistance back in 2008. Then it retook Tikrit, Saddam Hussein’s hometown, and reports suggest it’s moving rapidly toward Iraq’s capital city.
Newspaper? NRO? Never mind.
Apparently Obama isn't allowed to watch the news anymore….OBAMA: 'World Is Less Violent Than It Has Ever Been' http://t.co/l442qqYXhk

But surely the Obama admin is on it, right?
This would be a great time for Obama and Kerry to tell the people of Iraq the biggest threat they face is global warming.
