Fresh off a congressional trip to Ukraine, Sen. Chris Murphy on Monday rejected criticisms that Russia’s posture on Ukraine has something to do with the failures of the Obama administration, saying Russian President Vladimir Putin is improvising as he goes. “I think he is making this up as we go along,” Murphy said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” of Putin’s moves into the Crimean region of Ukraine. “I worry, though, that he’s going to realize he needs to move further than Crimea in order to get the end that he desires here.”

Russians don’t take a dump without a plan. This guy is an idiot.
Words of wisdom from another, head in the sand, rat. These people are dangerous to say the least.
On behalf of the people of CT who didn’t vote for him, I’m sorry.
By the time this yahoo wakes up, Russia will be in Poland...again.
No they won't, and if they try, the Poles will kick their ass.
The real reality, $inator Murphy is, ""Obama has made it clear to the world that when confronted with a crisis, he will do nothing. This reduces his options to zero and puts the United States and the world into a situation where rogue nations, non-state organizations, and gangs of thugs can do as they please with no fear of any meaningful response from the U.S. It makes the world a much more dangerous place."
Thanks to Daniel Greenfield for the remarks below to explain where we are with Obozo as POTUS in The Post American order.
The Post-American order stands for nothing except its own dismantling. That is why Obama sets red lines that he won’t enforce and issues threats that he doesn’t mean.
The only thing less appealing than selfishness is the complete absence of self. The only thing less appealing than empire is an anti-imperialism that so thoroughly negates its own power that it has no influence and no reason to exist.
Post-American America exists to destroy itself. Until that changes, it has nothing to offer the world except membership in a suicide pact.
Putin is merely moving into the vacuum created by the failure of leadership from the Current Occupant now squatting in the White Hut.
Simple physics, really. If The Won would respond in even a clumsy way, by taking the game TO Putin (exporting natural gas to Europe via cryogenic and pressurized tankers would be a start), the situation would quickly subside, but that would presuppose that the Current Regime would begin to reverse so much of its anti-energy agenda that is now part of its legacy.
The only one making it up minute by minute is the idiot sitting in the US White House.
No, not Michelle.
The other idiot - the Liar In Chief.
The democrats are astoundingly stupid, aren’t they? Well, just look at our Secretary of State, Murphy’s former Senate colleague. He’s busy trying to mobilize his international faggot army to go fight global warming, and now he’s clueless when a real crisis comes along.
When singer Justin Bieber said in an interview with Rolling Stone that he admired the health care system in his native Canada, Murphy sent a tweet to The Huffington Post expressing approval of Bieber's comments. Shortly thereafter Murphy noticed that Bieber, in the same interview, spoke out against the practice of abortion, so Murphy sent out another tweet to distance himself from Bieber on that issue.
Murphy sponsored a bill that would subject Supreme Court Justices to the same ethical code that applies to other federal judges, and suggested in 2011 the possibility of an investigation to decide whether Justice Clarence Thomas had committed ethical violations that would justify removing him from office.
As early as March 1999, he criticized U.S. Congresswoman Nancy Johnson's vote for impeaching President Bill Clinton.
In 2001, he was a co-sponsor of a bill to eliminate child poverty.
He also proposed legislation that would give free tuition to students of the state's community-technical colleges.
He proposed legislation that would ban smoking in state colleges and universities. .
He was a supporter of same-sex marriage as early as 2002.
In 2003, he joined the Clean Car Alliance and supported California-like environmental standards on auto manufacturers.
In 2004, Murphy supported a bill that would ban smoking in all restaurants and bars
Murphy has received high scores from liberal groups such as Americans for Democratic Action, NARAL Pro-Choice America, and various labor unions
Of gun control following the Newtown shooting, Murphy stated "Clearly, in my mind, there is no reason why anyone should have access to a military-style assault weapon or a magazine clip that holds 30 or 100 bullets."
Murphy has been sued for nonpayment of his mortgage and non-payment of rent, and has also failed to pay taxes when due on several occasions.
In 2007, Chase Home Finance sued for foreclosure against Murphy, whose campaign initially responded by claiming that Murphy had missed "a couple of mortgage payments." Murphy claimed that he did not know he was in default until legal proceedings started. Murphy received a loan at the rate of 4.99% from Webster Bank in 2008 to consolidate his previous mortgages after being sued for foreclosure.
At the time of this loan, Murphy was serving on the House Financial Services Committee. In 2008, Webster Bank's political action committee made numerous donations to Murphy's campaign and in 2005 and 2006, Murphy worked for Webster as an attorney.
In 2008, Murphy voted for the Troubled Asset Relief Program which Webster received $400 million in 2009. Murphy's 2012 Republican opponent Linda McMahon accused him of receiving what she called "special interest loans," and called on Murphy to release his financial records. Bank officials and outside experts claim there was nothing improper about the loans made to Murphy.
Sounds Familiar, Doesn't It?
....Oh yes!
....And he does foreign policy?

Turn on CSPAN and watch @SenJohnMcCain right now. Guts.
You mean like Obama is making up Obamacare as he goes along?
Our entire government is a bunch of fools, and I have even less respect for it than Putin does.
Losers.
