If Obama believes we can work with Al Qaeda in ANY way, he's even more stupid than I ''first'' thought.. that or he is out to destroy America, which wouldn't be ''that'' surprising. It's not the people of the US, it's our greedy government/President.

It seems like arming the enemy but you know, sometimes you have to sacrifice a smaller desire to obtain a larger one. Democratic governments throughout the Middle East is the aim and a few long range missiles, armed drones and thousands of machine guns falling into Al Qaeda hands is a small proce to pay. btw Notice that Washington is just 'Considering' it.
