The hits keep coming for President Barack Obama from Florida’s GOP Senatorial candidates, as Carlos Lopez-Cantera panned the President’s prime time speech on Sunday.

“Our President is failing us miserably in keeping Americans safe and secure, and his address tonight did not assuage the fears of the American people. He is either in complete and total denial or living in fantasy-land. It is time we recognize ISIS is a threat here on American soil, and be honest with the American people. We must completely eradicate the presence of ISIS,” Lopez-Cantera posted to Facebook.

“Radical Islamic terrorists are attacking Americans, yet President Obama’s top priority is to attack American’s 2nd Amendment rights to protect themselves. Tonight, we heard more of the same, with little details. President Obama displayed further evidence that he has no strategy to defeat ISIS, and instead has tried to pass the buck to Congress instead of utilizing the powers available to him as Commander in Chief,” Lopez-Cantera said, in response to Obama’s call for Congressional authorization of action against ISIL.
