Same way we negotiate with a pathological liar like Obama.

[American Constitutionalist]

Call him on his BS every time.... liars hate that.

re: How can we negotiate with a pathological liar like Putin?

Maybe a better question would be, how can anyone negotiate with a pathological liar like Obama?

[FatherofFive]

That Mr Putin 0bama has difficulties with the truth is already apparent from the transparent lies he told us

Power corrupts.

[fwdude]

Why is it our responsibility to deal with Putin at all, when we have our own pathology liar to deal with?

[ScottinVA]

How do you trust an alliance with a pathological liar like Obama?

[Jim Robinson]

More importantly, how do we deal with a pathological liar like Obama?

[skinkinthegrass]

..both President Putin AND pResident 0'Muslim; are BOTH pathological liars...
why just ask about Putin? ..both are Marxist Dictators.

[kenmcg]

Quite a headline. LOL! The most notorious liar, bar none, is Barack Hussein Obama!

[Fightin Whitey]

I would say Putin is a cunning, ruthless liar, one who knowingly deceives to further his own ends.

Obama is a pathological liar who really recognizes no absolute truth at all, and simply adopts and spouts whatever language seems best to suit his needs of the moment.

[Always A Marine]

Let’s not get suckered into Brussels’ new Cold War with Russia. The roles have been reversed since the Soviet Union collapsed, and it is NATO now on the march eastward. The next and greatest strongman will rise from the EU, and the once-sovereign nations of Europe will be powerless to prevent his rise.

[Hoodat]

Now the Russian president is at it again, this time trying to persuade a skeptical President Obama that . . .

He is not trying to persuade Obama of anything. Instead, he is openly laughing to his face knowing that Obama will do nothing to stop him. If anything, Putin is thoroughly disappointed that this battle of diplomacy with the United States did not provide a satisfying challenge for him. Normally, he would have advanced with a few armored columns to secure Kiev and Donetsk like his Soviet predecessors did in Hungary and Czechoslovakia. But Putin now realizes he doesn't have to. Ukraine will be annexed just as Austria was annexed in 1938. And the only shots being fired will be those of Obama teeing off on the golf course.

[PLD]

We deal with the number one liar of all time every day..To tell you the truth I would rather deal with Putin any day instead of Obama..

[llevrok]

One would think that our pathological liar vs Russia’s would cause a black hole-like implosion. Or at least hope so.

[Iron Munro]

How can we negotiate with a pathological liar like Putin?

Putin was sent to us to practice on.

Once we can handle him we can try our anti-liar skills out on Obama.

[Senator_Blutarski]

Putin lies for the same reason Obama lies: There are no consequences, there is no downside. Obama and Kerry are toothless.

[ThePatriotsFlag]

Send in a pathological liar like Obama.

[bert]

The premise is flawed.

Why do we need to negotiate with Putin? We have no dog in the Ukraine fight. Lithuania is different because it is NATO. Negotiation is not involved. There must be action. Obama is encumbered by ideology that will prevent action outside of lawyerly worded balderdash.

Action, Putin’s actions, trump the niceties of idealized diplomacy.

[TigersEye]

Pathological liar 0bama sends pathological liar Kerry to
talk to pathological liar Putin's pathological liar Lavrov.

They're bound to come up with something fun for everyone.

[vetvetdoug]

With Obama and Putin in the same room the truth hasn’t a prayer.
