What will be the major story from tomorrow's morning news shows?

My guess is that it will be Obama's "mistake" in pulling all the troops out of Iraq? Little will be said of Status of Forces Agreement negotiated by George W Bush to withdraw all American troops on a designated date. Little will be said about the Iraqi Parliament voting for us to leave their country. Little will be said of the original sin of invading Iraq. Much of the blame for the present situation in Iraq will be laid at the feet of Barack Obama.

Let's have an investigation. We can put Issa and Marble Mouth in charge.

I think you pretty much nailed what will be said.

Then again, lately I've been watching MTP out of morbid curiousity.

David Gregory never fails to disappoint.

experience of being a poor pilot, a songbird of a prisoner and picking Sarah Palin, to parrot whatever Fox News tells him to blather on and on about.

What does Ailes have on him, he is not that stupid, totally without a soul, yes, but not that stupid?

Will anyone show the picture of McCain making nice with ISIS political leaders when he went to Syria for a photo op, because many do.

Oh, the officially approved name for for the guys tearing around in Iraq and doing wheelies with captured Made in America armoured vehicles is not ISIL......the propaganda continues unabated.

The irony is not lost on me that now American pilots are destroying American made military equipment in Iraq.

Come on dude, the entire blame will be laid at Obama's feet. He'll even be blamed for the initial 2003 invasion of Iraq...because, as we all know, state senators have the complete authority to order deployments of the federal armed forces.
