"A showdown between non-interventionists and the neocon War Party, to determine which way America goes, is long overdue. Let’s get it on."

Unless we have a treaty obligation to defend them when they come under attack, we’d do nothing. The “neocon war party” is about defending Israel, not former soviet satellite states.

Hopefully the US would do nothing. Uki is none of our biz. Lock Kerry in a bathroom.

According to Sen. Lindsey Graham, Vladimir Putin’s move into Crimea “started with Benghazi.”

Then just maybe the piece of garbage shouldn't have been cheerleading for Libyan intervention in the first place.

I'm afraid we're just going to have to ride things out till sanity is returned to Washington.

Threaten seriously to bomb Putin out.

That should scare most of the generals (like Hitler’s before WWII)

Putin would be toast in Russia (like Khrushchev after the Cuban Missile Crisis)

Failure to do this will build Putin and lead to further aggression, hubris and sad miscalculation (like Hitler after Czechoslovakia)

History rhyming on multiple syllables

You Paulbots are dangerous useful idiots and make ignorant comments.
Bill Clinton forced the Ukrainians to give up there huge nuclear arsenal in 1993 !
We signed a treaty with them and Britain and old Yeltsin run Russia.

The question is, would this have happen if republicans were in charge. With Obummer there is little threat he will respond with anything stronger than a harshly worded letter followed by an apology.

Our adversaries know he is weak. They all have a green light for there nefarious intentions. The world is on fire because of Obummer. How to fix it now is an entirely different and much more complex issue.

Kinda reminds me of the old oil commercial, “You can pay me now, or pay me latter”.

A real president would have been in Russia for the Olympics with diplomacy going on to head it off. Instead resident Candyass was cowering under his desk whining about gay rights.

Despite the psychotic ravings of those who want to start a war with Russia, this is a done deal and our interference is only making things worse. Unfortunately I don’t see how we can extricate ourselves without encouraging Russia to take more and a new cold war will end us financially. Personally I can’t help but wonder if bringing about our fall isn’t Obama’s game plan.

Colonize a place then take it over. Well that game has had a lot of participants over the years.

A few to the good, most to the ill.

Were Crimea as friendly to Russia as Russia is claiming, why the farce. Is punk king?

Crimea is not a done deal. It’s chapter 1 of a new book. Chapter 2 or 3 will involve a NATO country. Maybe a shooting war with Russia in a NATO country. Think about that before you decide it’s best to ignore this murdering KGB bully.

It is not psychotic ravings to act towards Russia like nothing happened. It is an alarm of an awakened primitive bear.

Maybe this site might want to move off of the Roosky nginx as helpful as it has been. Anyone using Kaspersky antivirus, consider something like Norton. That kind of thing.

Lots of tough guys on line hoping for a good war they can watch on TV. Too few of you are on a flight to fight your glorious war.

The kind of people I call cowards.
