'Some of it may be explicit, and publicized, some of it may not be,' Obama tells NPR

U.S. President Barack Obama says the U.S. must and will take action against Russia in response to alleged cyber interference with the election.

"I think there is no doubt that when any foreign government tries to impact the integrity of our elections ... we need to take action and we will," Obama told NPR, adding the U.S. will respond at a "time and place of our choosing."

The president said some of the response may be explicit and publicized and some of it may not. He said he's spoken directly to Russian President Vladimir Putin about the hacking of Democratic officials' email accounts, which U.S. officials have blamed on the Kremlin.

Let’s not forget what Obama did ....

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/jul/12/obama-admin-sent-taxpayer-money-oust-netanyahu/

Obama tried to get Netanyahu out of office.

There is not proof of Putin trying to interfere....

So OBAMA, Say “Don’t Do AS I DO?”

Obama is a windbag. His “red line” threats are meaningless.

“This is a really dangerous game being played.”

Not really. Only if anyone still took Barky seriously. And we/they don’t.

He’s just smarting from a flaming case of butt-hurtitis, after saying things like his feelings would be hurt, that he would take it as a personal repudiation if we didn’t vote for Hitlery.
His political capital is 19 cents worth of change in the sofa, a Tic Tac and some pocket lint.

Making an unwarranted threat to Russia is a threat to all Americans.

Obama should be immediately removed from power.
