President Barack Obama is scheduled to speak to the nation on Wednesday night at 9 p.m EST from the State Floor of the White House about the terrorist group ISIS (also called ISIL), which recently executed two American journalists they captured in Syria.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest said the president will “discuss with the American people the threat posed by ISIL and to lay out the United States’ strategy for degrading and ultimately destroying the terrorist group.”
Just a distraction from Benghazi and IRS-gate
I certainly hope he sets aside some time to address that horrible ray Rice situation.
Or maybe the failed Obamacare.
Don’t worry, if the media is given a chance to ask questions the questions will be dominated with Ray Rice.
I suspect that Barack Obama is going to make a case that relies heavily on the details of the situation on the ground in eastern Syria and western Iraq, as opposed to his ideological stance on American military power in the abstract, thus infuriating both the right and far left.
