Don't know why they call it breaking news. I remember learning this as a fact way back in high school (a half century ago). Russia has never made a treaty they didn't break.

Obama is known for his veracity and faithfulness.

I wonder how Merkel felt listening to him.

Yeah I expect it out of Russia but we’ve got one of the most lawless administrations in the world today.

Our narcissist projecting again. He happens to be right this time. I wonder when he'll apologize to Mittens.

Just follow this with a clip of Obama telling Medvedev about all the ‘flexibility’ he’ll have after conning his way through his last election.

You know that guy can spin a tall tale.

And the Russians have no reason to take him seriously.

Would you?

Putin lied to me.

He’s angrier at Netanyahu than he is at Putin.

That’s not even a slap across the face.

There is a growing movement is Russia that refers to it as the Alaska rental. Depending on how things progress over the next decade, they may try to reclaim Alaska.

Emphasis on the word "try."

And what’s he going to do about it? He can whine and cry all he wants and Putin will just slap him again. Putin knows Obama’s number at this point.

He’s talks loudly and carries a small stick.

I don’t understand the Russophobe FR crowd’s defense of the man.

They don’t have a word to say about his sequestration of our military.

All he has to do is try what he what he’s doing with Iran on Russia.

Every one knows sanctions get in the way of a deal.

What is shocking is not our pro-America crowd, but our pro-Russia crowd.

Freepers support America, not Obama, whereas we do have a few freepers that are practically worshipers of Putin as a virile and heroic strong man, as the savior of Christianity, too tough to stand up to, the man who is unbeatable, and so on.
