WNU Editor: Reader RRH sent me this link from a news report from August .... Russian president to Turkish ambassador: "tell your dictator President he can go to hell along with his ISIS terrorists, I will make Syria a 'Big Stalingrad' for him!" (AWD News). Moscow later denied that these remarks were made .... Moscow denies Putin called Erdogan 'dictator' (AA News) .... but considering what has happened since then, it is now easy to understand why Turkey had no problem in making the decision to shoot down a Russian military jet, and why Russia is responding by upping its military engagement in Syria. Bottom line .... the leaders of both countries have nothing but contempt for each other.

Obama says ISIL with a high pitch on the "L". He says ISIL like a little kid would say Fievel from the animated movie "An American Tail".

Maybe it is just the higher pitch a person has when the end a sentence with a question. Then he is just setting up a straw man question (We have nothing to fear from the "JV team").
Or maybe it is part and parcel of who he is like the infamous workout video.
And this doesn't help matters.
