Yet another example of this - from the Washington Examiner:
State will miss deadline to declare Islamic State Christian genocide
The State Department announced Wednesday that it will miss the congressionally-mandated deadline for deciding whether the murder of Christians in territory controlled by the Islamic State should be deemed a genocide.
In 2015, President Obama signed a provision in the omnibus government funding bill requiring Secretary of State John Kerry to determine by Thursday, March 17 whether the Islamic State's actions legally constitute genocide. But State Department spokesman Mark Toner said Wednesday that Kerry will let that deadline lapse, and ask for more time.

"Given the scope and the breadth of the analysis [Secretary Kerry] is contemplating, he will not have a final decision completed by the congressionally-mandated deadline tomorrow," Toner said.
"This is clearly of the utmost importance to him, as well as Congress, and we expect him to reach a decision very soon," he added. "We don't take lightly the issue of a delay like this."
On Monday, the House unanimously passed a resolution calling on the Obama administration to recognize the Islamic State's actions as genocide.
"scope and the breadth" - give me a fscking break. Kerry is a clueless ninny. A moron and I insult all the wonderful morons out there. There is no in-depth analysis going on here, he is avoiding making a statement that will hurt the poor feelings of those terror-mongers he is so desperately trying to appease.
