“You just don’t in the 21st century behave in 19th century fashion by invading another country on completely trumped up pretext,” Kerry stated.

Like Libya or Syria by proxy for example?

Second thought: No, you cut their funding until they install a terrorist group as a government. See Egypt and the attempt at Israel for example.

"...caustically mocking Putin’s worldview won’t make it any less real or mitigate the Russian threat."

I call this the "Jon Stewart Liberal." It's all they know how to do.

It’s worse than that. Most of them are faculty lounge wannabe’s, not having the intellectual horsepower to cut it on a real faculty. It’s more like a bunch of freshmen fresh onto campus, newly arrived from their red diaper baby cocoons, gathering after orientation day to smoke a few joints and sort out the worlds problems.

.....While a quiet revolt is underway by the people they claim to rule.

Those who can’t do teach. Those who can’t teach become community organizers.

This administration is a very, very bad joke...a clown car administration running on empty.

The "Faculty" is pretty good at mind controlling, belittling and demoralizing the domestic US sheep.

But funny, the world's undomesticated wolves don't ever seem to be attuned to the curriculum.

Ben nails it.

These are elites who look down their noses at you from their faculty lounge, ‘ You just don`t get it. Since you`re not one of us enlightened few you never will.’

They are Solipsists .

The only reality there is is between their ears. All other facts, reality, are wrong,irrelevant. Only they possess the truth.
But, if you pin down their definition of truth ( radical totalitarianism ) they`ll deny it and use semantics to deflect by redefining the words they are using and then claim you are wrong. If you nail the definitions they are thinking of again they will once more re-redefine their words.

There is no use or advantage to be gained by engaging or debating these solipsists, you`ll never win.

Actually Kerry’s attitude is pretty racist when you think about it. It’s like he’s saying, “We thought the Russians were white, civilized Europeans.” They’re acting like those Arab and African guys.

When you get to the core of it, white libs are like that with everyone/thing not ‘like them’.

Ever notice they push the ‘all are equal’ meme but refuse to hold them to any standards? It’s because they believe they are too stupid. And they believe they are not capable of behaving to the ‘white standard’ of liberalism. So they treat them as stupid children and pets to be used when needed but given no respect.

No one seems to realize that. But think about it in every day situations from black crime to muzzie terror. Why are they not held to standards and instead excused/rationalized? Because libs are displaying racism.

Racist. Racist. Racist. Racist. Racist. Racist. Racist. Racist. Racist. Racist. Racist. Racist. Racist. Racist.

Man, I just had to get that out of my system.

Imagine. We retire all four battleships of the Iowa class .... and Putin immediately resorts to gunboat diplomacy.

This is what happens when the good guys don't have gunboats.

They are Solipsists .

Years ago, Newsweek did an article on how candidates for the White House come up by various distinctly-outlined roads.

One way is charisma and engagement with the public. They gave Pat Buchanan and Jesse Jackson as the best available contemporary examples of that kind of pol.

The other is by being part of The Club, the Rotarians they called them, guys who climb the ladder rung by rung and wait their "turn" to make a bid. Their example: Bob Dole.

The last and newest is what they called Mandarins (hat tip to Noam Chomsky, for his coinage "new Mandarins"). They substitute a check system (UMC parents and preschool? Check. Harvard? Check. Prep school? Check. Postgrad at JFK or Georgetown Law? Check.) that substitutes credentials, ticket-punching at the right times and places, for experience and judgment.

The "Mandarins" are basically hothouse Permanent Ruling Class waiting for their grants of Unanswerable Power, and they need to be systematically excluded from public office, elective or appointive.

Well, the larger point is, Fleet assets to move around, and the willingness to support them, maintain them, pay their crews (without making "dissatisfier" issues), and use them.

In the 1940's, Harry Truman used the Iowas in just this way. When the Turkish ambassador to the U.S. died in D.C. while the Turks were trying to fight off a Communist "war of national liberation" (so were the Greeks) started by the Soviets, HST made a point of sending the ambassador's body home with honors ..... aboard the battleship Missouri, which proceeded to swing at anchor in the Golden Horn for several weeks, as a message to the Russians.

It’s remarkable that a representative for the party of election fraud is caught off guard when it encounters a third party that is also unwilling to follow the rules of ethical behavior.

That’s part of it. Another part is the Democrats’ perpetual need for a secular savior. Since no one can meet that standard, a new one is always needed.
