THE SEAN HANNITY SHOW

The Headlines: Polling, ISIS and Ebola Wednesday's headlines: Another healthcare worker in Texas has contracted Ebola.  The administration still refuses to implement a travel ban.  ISIS has seized control of chemical weapons in Iraq.  Obama's approval rating is in the tank, and the election is just weeks away. Let's start with the president's approval rating, which is at a record low.  A brand new Washington Post/ABC News poll finds that only 40% of Americans approve of Obama's performance as president.  This is why the president has not attended one campaign event for a candidate this election cycle.  Yes, he's attended fundraisers for the Democratic Party, but he's become political kryptonite for Democrats who are afraid to even admit they voted for him, much less campaign with him. Obama's handling of ISIS has plunged significantly as well.  Just 35% of Americans approve of his handling of ISIS, which is down 22 points since September's polling. It's not hard to see why.  Our airstrike campaign doesn't seem to be effective, which is no surprise.  Instead we are hearing reports of ISIS being within miles of Baghdad.  And today we learned that ISIS likely now has control of a large cache of chemical weapons. “According to a recent report published in the journal Middle East Review of International Affairs, or MERIA, militants of the Islamic State group used chemical weapons, including mustard gas, against Kurdish fighters in the Syrian border town of Kobani during their first attempt to capture the town in July.” These are said to be Saddam-era weapons, which are now being used by these radical islamic terrorists. It's no wonder that the American people feel that the administration hasn't competently handled ISIS, if we continue to learn of their troubling progress. Continue reading... Why is Army Delaying Release of Bergdahl Probe? Months ago the Obama administration swapped Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who was being held in Afghanistan, for the release of five Taliban members in Guantanamo Bay. The swap sparked outrage when we learned from his platoon mates that Bergdahl willingly deserted his platoon while serving in Afghanistan. Many brave soldiers lost their lives looking for Bergdahl, whom they believe to be a deserter.  VIDEO: Platoon leader, Col. Peters weigh in It's been four months since Bergdahls return to the United States and an investigation has been completed into the nature of his disappearance.  But the Army refuses to release its findings to the public, claiming that the review process by commanders will be “lengthy.” Could this be politically motivated to hide the truth from the American people? With the election around the corner, I'm sure the administration would like to do all that it can to shield itself from any more bad news.
