President Obama is pushing back against the idea that he’s been outmaneuvered in Syria by Russian President Vladimir Putin since the two met at the United Nations on Monday.
Obama appeared frustrated by the suggestion during a press conference this afternoon, dismissing it as a notion only talked about in the Washington D.C.
“Sometimes the conversation here in the Beltway differs from the conversation internationally,” Obama responded.
Obama accused Putin of acting in Syria “out of weakness,” repeatedly referring to Russia’s weakening economy. He also compared his coalition to act against ISIS in Syria to Putin’s unilateral decision to prop up Assad.
“Iran and Assad make up Mr. Putin’s coalition at the moment,” he said. “The rest of the world makes up ours.”
He repeatedly assured reporters that he was “very clear” with Putin about where America stood on Syria, ....... Obama: I’m Not Losing To Putin In Syria.
“This is not some, you know, super power chess board contest and anybody who frames it in that way isn’t paying very close attention to what’s been happening on the chess board,” he said.

All of his life, Obama has been able to talk/lie his way into and out of situations. Talk is cheap and Putin knows it. Even the news media was laughing when they reported the story that Obama said Putin is bombing Syria out of weakness.
Surrreee, Brack, now be a good boy and go take those pretty blue pills...thaat’s a good boy!
“BREAKING: FEDS PREP FOR NUCLEAR ATTACK: BOOST NATION’S STOCKPILE OF “SILVERLON” BURN KITS”.......
Perhaps we now see the reason for all those FEMA camps, body bags, coffins, etc. Perhaps the bastard child has known this would be coming for some time. Nothing that POS does ever surprises me.
Putin and Ukraine are about to make a deal....which will likely get rid of the sanctions....except....
Obama will say...but not ours...cuz I don't like you helping your ally of 50 years..Syria.
I fear we are about to see a lot of American soldiers die for Obama’s ego
This crisis has laid bare once and for all the ultrasensitive ego, the pettiness and the cluelesness. He is happy to watch the death of multitudes if it ensures one more pair of hands applauding him for merely existing.
Usual and customary Bullshit. He's LOSING on everything else...why not Syria. Might as well be consistent if that's all he's got.
Maybe not ‘immediately’ but for sure. My guess is within 3 years. Who knows how many decades later we are still going to pay for the price.
The same for our children and grandchildren paying the price of the bankruptcy. Anyway you dice it, liberal utopia is upon us.
Virtue without force in Syria is of no use to anyone
(By refusing to flex his military muscle, Barack Obama makes America ineffectual on the world stage. There’s nothing moral about that)
one can not lose that which is already lost
This pathetic little boy gets beat at every turn.
Wouldn’t be surprised that his wookie bitch wife beats him regularly too.
“...internationally,” they’re laughing at the WH fool.
Obama: I’m Not Losing To Putin In Syria... I’ve already lost.
Obama is insane.
But what is more worrisome is the C0ngress of these United States of America.
Who is paying C0ngress off to leave obama in office, why are they being paid off to leave obama in office and how much are they being paid to leave, an obviously insane man, in the oval office.
the size of the coalition does not matter, it is the rules of engagement that matter.
obama’s ROE is Avoid civilian casualties at all cost.
Putin’s ROE is WIN!
Delusional
The quote is a perfect illustration of how bad Obama is at thinking ahead to the next move. He can’t even think ahead to the end of a sentence.
Well for the sake of the world I hope Obama continues to think he is winning,the results on the world’s population would be to horrific to even contemplate if he ever returns to the world of reality with his narcissistic finger on the button
Obama has no problem killing innocents. Check his stats. Obama has a problem with making necessary but unpopular decisions.
