Why do I think sending Biden is a mistake?

What do you bet this is all a scheme cooked up by Putin and Obama? The crisis appears, things look ugly, but then Obama swoops in to make a deal and his poll numbers go up.

I've been thinking this since the beginning of this Ukraine story.

So, after John Horse-Face Kerry, they are sending Joe Foot-in-the-Mouth Biden to fix up the mess the Obama adm. has made in Eastern Europe?

God help us!

Situation is way beyond the abilities of the imposters corrupt inept administration to get a handle on. I think the russians are going to move in over the weekend while slow joe is there to watch.

It is true that Putin would prefer that Americans elect more DemoRats to office, nationwide, because the DemoRat traitors are so damaging to America, so untrustworthy to allies, and so easy to slap the crap out of, internationally.

But cooked up by Putin and Obama? Nah, Putin's beating Obama like a rented mule cause Obama's dumber than that rented mule, and Putin enjoys humiliating the sissy.

Sending Slow Joe ... they’ve reached the bottom of the barrel ... maybe they could have recalled Mrs. Slick Willey to help out before scraping the sludge out of the bottom of the barrel!

Not so sure.

In the end we will likely see Obama and Putin as pals cooperating in the subjugation of Europe.

The only reason I don't think this is a Obama scheme is that the only way Obama wins is if they can peel Crimea away from Putin.

And that is not going to happen.
