Well, here comes that “he’s a MAN” sheeet again. I knew it would be coming.

In other words, all you’re mainly concerned about is whether or not a leader is a tough guy. With that line of thinking one can say they admire any number of ruthless dictators and thugs throughout history, street gang leaders, mafia figures, etc, etc. Obviously, Obama is a little wussy, but Putin is no person to admire in any way. Respect as a formidable and cunning enemy, yes. He’s clearly winning people’s hearts and minds here. You folks need to understand that the Russians are masters at the art of deception. They’ve been using naive people around the world to help with their global agenda for decades. In fact, they even had a name for these people. They referred to them as their “useful idiots” in America.

Something at least to consider...

Did Communism Fake Its Own Death in 1991?
American Thinker ^ | January 16, 2010 | Jason McNew

In a [] 1984 book [New Lies for Old], ex-KGB Major Anatoliy Golitsyn predicted the liberalization of the Soviet Bloc and claimed that it would be a strategic deception. ..."

"Golitsyn's argument was that beginning in about 1960, the Soviet Union embarked on a strategy of massive long-range strategic deception which would span several decades and result in the destruction of Western capitalism and the erection of a communist world government."

"Golitsyn published his second book, The Perestroika Deception, after the Soviet Union was dissolved in 1991. This book contained further analysis of the liberalization, in addition to previously classified memoranda submitted by Golitsyn to the CIA. The two books must be read together to get a complete picture of Golitsyn's thesis."

I didn’t say I admire him. I was making reference to our Pansy in Chief. Don’t read what I don’t write. A tyrant is a tyrant but a man is not a pansy. Go pedal your crap elsewhere since I have no desire to converse with you further. I have to head for work now. Good day.
