One’s military is useless when one has sniveling little ‘Progressive’ cowards sabotaging every effort of our men and women in uniform.
There’s a reason we haven’t been victorious since WWII.

“What did Putin say that made you like him?”

Putin is to be respected for acting in the short and long term interests of the nation he leads in foreign affairs. Unlike the leaders the USA and most western European countries.

Okay, well Putin seemed in control of the interview. He was charming and polite. 0bama on the other hand would be overbearing, narcissistic, hemming and hawing and not having a coherent idea. Putin came across as a nice guy is all.

I think Obama is just behind the leader of Burkina Faso, right now.

My not so nice as your take: The face of evil in our time.

All description by either of us after that is simply adding more adjectives......

Guess I'll never make the list of the most highly esteemed members of the right.

The greatest military only represents power if the world is convinced we are ready to use it to protect/advance our interests. Tanks sitting in the motor pool and planes gathering dust in hangars do not represent power.

Putin has usurped the world lead because he has shown he is ready and willing to act. That makes up for a lot of firepower.

“Putin is a very bad guy.....he’s ten times the leader of our community organizer!!!”

Who could argue with that statement?

Putin has some history, and his KGB people are not known for being nice guys, but he comes across as a strong leader who has the backing of most Russians, not merely those forced to support him as would be the case in places like North Korea.

Putin and the Russians in general, may be a little rough around the edges but they do tend to get things done, Afghanistan notwithstanding, and they seem quite capable of ignoring the hue and cry from the world’s bleeding hearts who don’t like their methods. All in all, I admire Putin’s ability to stand up to world opinion and thumb his nose at a cowardly, limp-wristed spider monkey.

Obama is not a “has-been”, he’s a “never was”, and he’s been remarkably successful at turning the US into a has-been country heading for the dust bin. Putin is merely taking advantage of the golden opportunities Buckwheat is handing him.

I don’t think Obama deserves fifth place. There are A LOT more powerful leaders in the world than that rainbow colored idiot.

You posit your list as powerful LEADERS, not powerful countries. Obama the man (person/thing/he/she/it) is by no means either powerful or a leader.
