PALIN MOCKED IN 2008 FOR WARNING PUTIN MAY INVADE UKRAINE IF OBAMA ELECTED

Putin figured out who Obama is and what he is made of so for him, the US President is a toothless gnat.
After Obama set up his “RESET” and “SOFTPOWER” doctrines, the Russians (and the rest of America's enemies)knew that they had a free hand in the world.
No surprises here, very sad and very dangerous.
NOBODY CAN RELY ON THE US NOW...for anything.

Russians just want a little breathing room. That’s all. Uncle Vlad promises he won’t invade anymore countries after this. KGB’s Honor
To: GeronL
Well, they do “let” the affected Ukranians vote or have legislators approve the annexation. And there are sections of the Ukraine that are pro-Russia. Seems like dividing the Ukraine might be good for Ukranians on both sides. (Sometimes I wonder whether it would be better to divide America into the pro-freedom states and the FSA states.)

We aren’t really divided by state lines though, in many places anyways

How do you have a vote with thousands of "troops" armed with military weapons strolling through your streets? None of them wear the isignia of any nation. It's a dishonorable intimidation. Those are not soldiers, they are thugs.

The is no sovereignty in the EU, you can run from boarder to boarder in Europe no questions asked. Also the cold war is over and NATO should have been dismantled when the wall came down. The WARSAW PACT was dismantled. So in a real sense, the Russians feel like the NATO push to their boarder is not viable.

I’m talking about all the ass clowns that think want the EU to be the savior of the Ukraine. It is easy to see what is happening. All the Money that he EU wants from the IMF and the UK and the US. Just another country for them to destroy with their social agenda.

As one living in the European Union I agree with you that there is much to be feared from the left social agenda here. However, their record on human rights is very good, it is on the economic side that we conservatives find a greater threat.
The threat in America is on both sides with our elections being stolen, our Bill of Rights being trampled, our Constitution becoming a relic, our national debt out of control, our Congress dysfunctional, and our chief executive becoming a tyrant.
We ought to think about why ethnic Russians in Ukraine might vote to align themselves with an autocracy or, perhaps better said, a thugocracy, in Russia with its manifest and concommonant loss of human rights rather than align themselves with a benign if imperfect European Union? Perhaps the same analysis would lead to the same conclusions if we considered why the African American "community" does the same thing.

Didn't Obama just show Putin who's boss by sending a delegation of Queers to the Sochi Olympics?

I think that’s the outcome and, honestly, why shouldn’t it be? If parts of the Ukraine want to remain close to Russia and the population deems it so via the vote then so be it. Of course you may have to wonder about fraud but we do know that large parts of the country are Russian speaking and were not interested in this latest interior political strife.
Plenty of stories over the last few years about parts of Colorado or California wanting to do that exact thing and it’s largely promoted here.
