Republicians are really afraid that Obama will come up with a deal that works

He will have a legacy unmatched in decades for as a peace maker which could have lasting influence in the future of humanity.
The current stock of "teagaggers" are nothing but Trojan horses paid for by the MIC an Koch Bros., inc. The are hell bent to guarantee the fulfillment of their insane notion of 'holy war' no matter the cost to our planet or the people living on it.

Some diffuse islamic terrorism? That's not catchy! We need and enemy with brand-recognition!
Al-Qaeda? Splintered.
ISIS? Far-away and in the ropes. They are rapidly losing infrastructure in the bombings and it gets more and more difficult for them to move troops and ressources around. (They recently lost the whole Tel Hamis-area in north-eastern Syria. And their defense of Tikrit consists of booby-traps and snipers...)

North Korea? Poor, armed lunatic. But China prevents any serious escalation. No threat.

Venezuela? Cuba? Oh wait, that bastard Obama is trying to take Cuba off the table, too.


So, who is left as the big enemy that we can rally against???
Russia?
Yeah, Russia would work.
Except Putin is so hot when he takes off his shirt.
