Republicans are calling for President Barack Obama to present a detailed strategy to Congress on how the U.S. plans to defeat Islamic militants in Iraq and Syria. "It's time for President Obama to exercise some leadership in launching a response," Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said on the Senate floor Tuesday.

President Obama will address the nation at 9 p.m. on Wednesday about how the United States plans to confront the threat from the Sunni extremist group, the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. In the speech, Mr. Obama will lay out a strategy for "degrading and ultimately destroying the terrorist group," Josh Earnest, the White House press secretary, said in a statement.

The decision to schedule the address during prime time, from the state floor of the White House, underscores the gravity of the challenge from ISIS. It comes after an intense internal debate and diplomatic outreach to assemble a coalition to target ISIS.

 

The White House - Wednesday, September 10th, 9:02 p.m.
 

 

Good evening everyone. I'd like to thank you all for being here tonight. My fellow Americans, let me get right to the point. I’d like to begin tonight by addressing the concerns of Mitch McConnell and others in the Republican Party that I haven’t laid out a clear strategy for dealing with the threat posed by ISIS and other Islamic extremists. Now, obviously, both for myself personally, and for my administration, the highest priority is to find a way to deal with this problem once and for all. To say that we have done otherwise is not only factually incorrect, but also simply playing politics. Such petty political games are beneath us as a people, and have got to stop.

Speaking of things that are beneath us, and that have got to stop, my administration has a plan to attack this problem on multiple fronts, so that we might get the heads of the leaders of ISIS beneath our boots, and bring an end to this threat once and for all. Hopefully this will also bring an end to these false accusations of inaction that come from the Republican leadership.

Step one in our plan, addresses several issues at once – all of which are issues that the current Republican leadership has seen fit to ignore. Now, we all know, no one wants to see American troops deployed overseas. On the other hand, pretty much everyone wants to see some form of immigration reform passed. So, tomorrow, I will issue an Executive Order to immediately begin identifying and locating the hundreds of thousands of people who are in this country illegally. We will then provide these people with six weeks of basic training, after which they will be sent to Iraq and Syria to combat ISIS. Again, this will address several issues that are of deep concern to the American people, and do so in a way that is both timely and cost-efficient.

We will also be working closely with our allies in this struggle, and making it clear to all those involved that if you are not with us, then you are against us. No quarter will be given in our efforts to root out and eradicate this threat. Why? Because this is not just a threat to us, but is in fact, a threat to the entire free world. In speaking to the good people of the world, I want to make it clear that you are the water that will wash away all that has gone before. These infidel defilers of ISIS shall all drown in lakes of blood. Now they will know why they are afraid of the dark. Now they will learn why they fear the night. We trust that the wise leaders of the world will join us in bringing light to that dark night, with the flame of righteous justice. This flame will burn away the darkness, and burn you, the American people, the way to paradise.

Triumphing in this epic struggle will be the priority for my administration until the last ISIS leader is hung out as food for the crows, and as a warning to those who would do us harm. As I said before, no quarter will be given, no safe haven will be granted. Therefore, to show the unparalleled importance we will be giving to this, both myself and Vice President Biden will also be deployed to the to the frontlines of this battle. We will be armed only with a broadsword, and a good strong battle ax each. We intend to crush our enemies, to see them driven before us, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

In our absence, former governor Arnold Schwarzenegger will be in charge of domestic affairs, and will serve as a backup should Joe and I not return from our mission of righteous vengeance.



Thank you again for being here tonight. May Crom bless you, and may Crom continue to bless the United States of America.
