Is Ukraine/Crimea the "flexibility" Obama promised Putin?
vanity

So watching Obama's ineptitude in dealing with Russia's aggression to the Ukraine and Crimea, I keep asking myself - is this the flexibility Obama promised Putin once he got re-elected?

I haven't heard any reference to the open mic promise Obama made to Putin with regard to his handling of Russia now. Could this be what that promise was all about? If this has been discussed or posted, I apologize and would sincerely appreciate links to the discussions.

Was Obama ever ASKED what was meant by that or what he and Putin were discussing? O Reilly didn’t bother to ask him in his SuperBowl interview?

I would submit that Obama has had his head up his ... from day one. Before that it was the people who voted for him.

There’s certainly no better way to bring about our final economic collapse than playing cold war with Russia.

Bingo .
We have a winner.
Barry is dismantling the US military , wiping out our nuclear weapons superiority , handing over the internet control, and giving US enemies like Putin a superior position in the world.
its was his mission from the beginning since his Soros owners wanting the US power wiped out .
mission accomplished .

It was actually a remark Obama made to Medvedev, not Putin almost exactly two years ago.

Obama promises Medvedev 'more flexibility' after election

By Kathleen Hennessey
March 26, 2012

Reporting from Seoul — In a private conversation captured by a hot microphone, President Obama today appeared to be putting off diplomatic talks with Russian leaders about a controversial missile defense system until after November.

Television footage shows Obama telling Russian leader Dmitri Medvedev that "after my election I will have more flexibility." An advisor to Obama later said the two were talking about Russia's objections to the system, agreeing to talk later because of political concerns on both sides.

If the imposter found himself that flexible, he would give up golf.

Hope at least a few here realize that King Obama is a communists black Muslim trained enemy of America. He has systematically destroyed so much I doubt that America can come back. He should be impeached with treason as a charge.

Remember, since Obama ‘re-started’ relations, he owns our relationship with Russia. Can’t blame Bush for this one.
