SECURITY...History will not be kind to President Obama's effectiveness in fighting terrorism. His record is terrible. The California Christmas Party Massacre is the only the latest in a string of major U.S. attacks during his tenure.
In May 2009, Obama vowed to defeat terrorism using "all elements of our power."
"My single most important responsibility as president is to keep the American people safe," he said. "It's the first thing that I think about when I wake up in the morning. It's the last thing that I think about when I go to sleep at night."
The next month, Obama traveled to Cairo to apologize to the world's Muslims for the War on Terror. Then he canceled it, along with enhanced interrogations used to obtain information about plots against the homeland from captured terrorists.
Next, he set out to release as many terrorists as he could from the prison camp at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. He also ordered the FBI and Homeland Security to delete "jihad" from counterterrorism manuals and fire all trainers who linked terrorism to Islam.
Obama wasn't done keeping us safe.
He also stopped a major investigation of terrorsupporting Muslim Brotherhood front groups and mosques after U.S. attorneys successfully prosecuted Brotherhood charities. And he opened the floodgates to Muslim immigrants, importing more than 400,000 of them, many from terrorist hot spots Somalia, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.
Not coincidentally, America has endured seven major Islamic terrorist attacks on its soil on Obama's watch. The nation has averaged one big hit a year, over the past seven years. The ISIS-inspired San Bernardino attack was the deadliest terrorism on U.S. soil since 9/11. Here are the other six:
June 2009: Al-Qaida-trained Abdulhakim Muhammad opened fire on a U.S. military recruiting office in Little Rock, Ark., killing Pvt. William Long and wounding Pvt. Quinton Ezeagwula.
November 2009: Nidal Malik Hasan opened fire in an attack at Ford Hood in Killeen, Texas, killing 13 and wounding more than 30. Obama ruled it "workplace violence," not terrorism, even though Hasan was in contact with an al-Qaida leader in Yemen before the strikes and praised Allah as he mowed down fellow soldiers.
September 2012: Terrorists with al-Qaida in the Maghreb attacked the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, killing the U.S. ambassador and three others. Obama and then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton lied to the American people, blaming the attack on an anti-Muslim video when they knew it was al-Qaida.
April 2013: Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev exploded two pressure cooker bombs near the finish line of the Boston Marathon, killing three and wounding more than 260. At least 17 people lost limbs.
May 2015: ISIS-directed Muslims Nadir Soofi and Elton Simpson opened fire on the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, Texas, shooting a security guard before police took them out in a hail of bullets.
July 2015: Mohammad Youssef Abdulazeez attacked a military recruiting center and U.S. Navy Reserve in Chattanooga, Tenn., shooting to death four U.S. Marines and a sailor before police killed him.
Attack after attack, Obama has maintained that global warming is a bigger threat than global terrorism. Americans are fed up. Even before the Christmas Party Massacre, polls showed that Obama is widely viewed as soft on Islamic terrorists.
According to Quinnipiac University, over 60% of American voters say Obama isn't doing enough to prevent terrorism and is losing the fight against ISIS. Even 57% of independent voters disapprove of the way Obama is handling terrorism.
Good luck, Hillary.
