"Oh yeah? You and what army, President Poofter?"

And he's bad, bad Leroy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damn town
Badder than old King Kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog

"Delivering a blunt warning to Moscow, President Barack Obama expressed deep concern Friday over reported military activity inside Ukraine by Russia and warned "there will be costs" for any intervention." -- AP

Oh they are shaking in their boots [with laughter] in Moscow tonight. Can't somebody show up to work at the White House and tell this Jello-spined juggalo that his warning and threats just aren't making it? I mean really. This tough guy spiel is just an embarrassment:
"The Obama administration is evaluating whether President Barack Obama will go forward with plans to attend an international summit in Russia this summer amid reports of Russian intervention in Ukraine. A senior administration official says it's hard to see how Obama and European leaders would attend the G-8 summit in Sochi, which is scheduled for June. "
So let me get this straight. The "penalty" for Russia if it keeps its hold on the Ukraine is that it doesn't get to waste precious summer days in June in the presence of this cowardly little narcissist and his entourage of fluffers and fellators? Well, yes, that would certainly make any leader of Russia give up the security of his fleet's access to the Crimea, the Black Sea, and from there into the Mediterranean. Let's not forget that Russia lost the Crimean War in the middle of the 19th Century [not that long ago in the Russian mind] which took about half a million lives on all sides. In that war, most of the fighting took place for control of the Black Sea, with land battles on the Crimean peninsula in southern Russia. Deja vu all over again? Why not? That's the history of Russia writ large.

Simply put, if Russia cannot maintain control of the Crimea and Sevastopol it cannot maintain the Black Sea Fleet.

The Black Sea Fleet is considered to have been founded by Prince Potemkin on May 13, 1783, together with its principal base, the city of Sevastopol. Formerly commanded by such legendary admirals as Dmitriy Senyavin and Pavel Nakhimov, it is a fleet of enormous historical and political importance for Russia.
The Black Sea Fleet enables Russia to control and dominate its close in "backyard" of Georgia as well as have access to the Mediterranean and, hence, the Middle East and Suez. Without the Crimea and Sevastapol, Russia ceases to be a nation with global reach. This is something Putin will not do. Ever. This is one of those annoying strategic situations in which trying to force Russia to step back can easily become a trigger for thermonuclear war. And Russia is still in the strategic nuke business.

Instead of understanding how history lives in the present and shapes the future, this pig-ignorant "president" doesn't have a foreign policy, all he has is a series of poses and postures; none of which are all that butch.

Indeed, it would seem that the only group on the planet that are afraid of this putz are D.C. Republicans. And I'm not too sure about them any longer.

Mr V .... that's gonna leave a mark ...seriously

While Vlad-ville is flyin in more attach-helos, airlifting paratroops, bringin in IFVs to control roads into the peninsula and positioning ships Lord Bongo will be golfing. Guaranteed. He spoke to the press for a minute, took no questions, and hurried off to a DNC fundraiser. The former seem like the actions of a serious dude. The latter is typical lazy-ass Muslim Marxist speecifyin from Poseur-in-Chief

Sitting here working with the talkradio on and this cranial paraplegic pops up and starts runnin his jibber. I paused for a moment and listened to this retard with the slight ghetto endings and reached over and turned it off. Maybe 30 seconds, that is all I could take. And that is only the 2nd time I have heard that asshole speak, ever. And I've never seen moving video of him. I can't say that about any other president in my lifetime.

Here's the thing, this country died sometime back, can't say exactly when cause it had been on life support all of my life. Somewhere along the line I got used to the idea that I don't live in a country anymore, I just live. period. Therefore things like presidents and other silly asses simply do not exist in my world. They are as real as sat morning cartoons.

I heard the word "warning" used in the top of the hour radio news break.

So I turned on the TV, and found a news channel... it's been a while, but those tracks filmed heading down the road in the Crimea were the descendents of the T72 and T80 tanks I was familiar with back in the day...

Welcome to the bigs, Barry.

It's all downhill from here.

I wish we could move the 3d Division off of Okinawa. They serve no purpose there any more, what with our shitty lift capability and undermanned carrier wings.

Don't worry Utah, Barry said "With an army of queers and women commanders we should have no fear". As a powerful back-up, Sir Hillary says the same thing.

In my humble opinion, Obama is a rancid pig rectum.

Posted by: Cilla Mitchell at February 28, 2014 7:45 PM

There are some things that Chicago politics has no answer to. Unfortunately, Chicago politics is all that Obama has ever studied.

Posted by: Mikey NTH at February 28, 2014 7:58 PM

President Obama sure knows how to pick his battles. Let's see: he shrinks the Pentagon down to the size of a reefer, weakens every branch of the armed services, pulls out our military personnel in Afghanistan, disgraces our country as he lets our embassy and ambassador get decimated in Benghazi, then has the gall to speak with a bull horn and straight face and carry a tiny stick in order to discipline Putin?! This can't end well. I'm wondering who it is I'm really pulling for here? It might be Putin...but it's late and I've just driven a long way today....

Political conflicts are merely surface manifestations. If conflicts arise you may be sure that certain powers intend to keep the conflicts under operation since they hope to profit from the situation. To concern yourself with surface political conflicts is to make the mistake of the bull in the ring, you are charging the cloth. That is what politics is for, to teach you the cloth. Just as the bullfighter teaches the bull, teaches him to follow, obey the cloth.

Barry, no one shaking that thin little hand of yours is going to take you seriously. You have no heft, no weight, you've never been able to deal with reality, only with fake 'you never built that'-type theories. Putin is the real world Barry, and he's going to introduce you to reality. I hope at least your teleprompter is up to the task. On the other hand, go and play golf. The US is without rudder and moral compass.

Posted by: Mike at February 28, 2014 9:34 PM

I'm not sure whether it's better to be adrift and rudderless, with 0bama hiding in the bilge with his bottle, than it is for him to be at the helm of the Ship of State, running it at flank speed onto a reef. Either way, we're screwed, and Putin laughs.

What an opportune time for the SecDef to propose decommissioning the A-10 warthog and putting all the marbles on the non-existent F-35. Chucky Hagel must have an awesome cat's eye 'shooter' Barry can borrow to use in the big game with Vlad the Impaler.

King Hussein has a phone and a pen. Calling Putin, nah, Putin will just tell him to shove it.
Obama will take his big pen and write a very serious note, roundly excoriating Putin. Probably in big loopy script!

America and the wester world is not in good hands. This is a very bad time in history to have a poofer for a president and a bunch of communists running Europe.

Russia and China will run this planet for the rest of this century. Of course, they will have to kill a lot of muslims in the process, but that's what muslims, apparently are for, … dying violently …when no one is killing them, the kill each other .. .really strange people.

Posted by: Ofay Cat at March 1, 2014 7:13 AM

Shit just got real for John F. Kerry. The Russians don't mess around like the muslims do. Podesta is running the show here folks. Dangerous times.

There was a book I owned once, "The Tiny Elephant and the Enormous Mouse". Good title for whats going on now.
Obama, as he took office, had handed to him an experienced military with proven leaders, weapons and reputation. A recently strong economy, which his friends crashed to help him get elected, that could be repaired and restored. But since that would entail re-hiring the white, male workforce that he disapproved of, that didn't happen. Still hasn't happened. And of course the legacy of George Bush in the international arena, a clear blueprint of how to deal with all the players. Obama scrapped that of course in favor of a "reset" and apology tour that is unique in my knowledge of history.

After WWII the US had strong bases and forces in the SE Asia theater, land handed over by the vanquished for the most part, but it put us in a commanding position. After the end of the war in Iraq, we could have established bases, Air and Sea, and commanded the area. Syria would not have happened, at least not the way it went. Iran would have been in our sights, constantly. A obvious move, expected by all parties, treaties drawn up and ready to be signed. Iraqi leaders bought new pens so as to be ready when called on. But Obama walked away. Walked away from the years of blood, money, and effort. As through it was 2006 and he was in the Democratic jeering section of the Senate and still opposing George Bush.

The number of Obama's walk backs from taking strong positions defending democracy and western civilization are too numerous to count. He is the Tiny Elephant. Putin acts today in sure knowledge, his only opponent the Ukrainian people themselves. Putin is the Enormous Mouse, the Russian population is crashing, the economy is weak except for oil and gas, but Putin is willing to use the resources he has effectively. As the British SAS slogan says,"He who dare, Wins".

Barak Obama is a traitor, he could not be doing more harm to the USA if he tried.

Anyone who believes Russia's global reach depends on control of the Crimea apparently hasn't learned one lesson about the 20th Century.

Posted by: Veritas at March 1, 2014 3:25 PM

No, not at all. For the administration to say empty threats like "There will be consequences" is just silly, and typical for both this administration and modern Democrats in general.

But it's not like the EU is going to do anything about it either.

But unlike some of the posters above, I wouldn't get my panties in a twist over this. It isn't going to go well for Putin in the end. Nobody is going to deal with him the same after this, and if fighting actually breaks out, the Russians will be bogged down for a the forseeable future dealing with it.

What happens when the gas pipelines start getting sabotaged and Russia cannot sell it's gas and oil?

This isn't as one sided as people are assuming.

"What happens when the gas pipelines start getting sabotaged and Russia cannot sell it's gas and oil?"

An energy crisis in Europe and a fullscale war in the Ukraine. Just for starters.

And as for the Crimea, Russia has a memory longer than the 20th century especially now that the Czars are back.

Obama said a few words and focused instead on going to another fundraiser?

He did the identical thing for Benghazi.

The West has always employed a "divide and conquer" mentality to the Pan-Slavic nations and has willfully destabilized them in order to keep them from forging strong alliances with mother Russia. In the early 1900's, the Balkan Wars and the partition of Macedonia largely came about because the West didn't want the Russians to have influence in the region. The West is playing the same games today.

Point being, the West does not have clean hands here. That's why I support Putin this time around, not to mention that we have a buffoonish thug (not unlike Yanukovitch) as president.
