I guess we are going to see how Obama and his players are going to handle the big boys.

Putin is already a dozen moves ahead of Obama and is about to call checkmate.
The Post-American order stands for nothing except its own dismantling. That is why Obama sets red lines that he won’t enforce and issues threats that he doesn’t mean.
The only thing less appealing than selfishness is the complete absence of self. The only thing less appealing than empire is an anti-imperialism that so thoroughly negates its own power that it has no influence and no reason to exist.
Post-American America exists to destroy itself. Until that changes, it has nothing to offer the world except membership in a suicide pact.

Admin officials tell CNN's Barbara Starr this is an "uncontested arrival" not necessarily "an invasion" and that this distinction is "key."

My wife just laughs.
Yes the ports are an issue but he will not give up control of his cash cow.

Good post. +1 thumbs up.
Obama has a pen and a phone. He’s going to call Putin. If Putin doesn’t answer he’ll write him a strongly worded letter.
It’s sad just how weak he has made this once powerful country. Now the world considers us paper tigers.
Great graphic. Thanks for posting.
“He stands by the people of Ukraine, Europe, etc.”
I thought I’ve seen him stomping his left foot :)

I told my wife I wouldn’t be surprised if obama said he’s sending Clinton and Bush to talk to Putin.
