The ONLY documentation on pRes _ _ent Obama
is that he wears Mom Jeans, pedals girls’ bikes,
and did not pledge the US flag until exposed in photos.

Of course Crimea will rejoin Russia.

And Moscow knows Obama and Kerry are not going to do anything about it.

Sanctions? Moscow is going to absorb the pain; its gotten what it wanted - with America’s blessing.

Life goes on.

Everyone knows that 0bamao is a lying sack of putrid scat.
By extension, so are demoncrats.
Their “words” are never, ever, ever to be taken at face value.

Vlad knew from the moment he heard of Osama’s “flexibility” promise that he had nothing to fear from the United States.It's a lot like the old Chamberlain/Hitler thing.

Bammy’s enhanced flexibility is apparently associated with bending over.

Drawing a “Red Line” in the sand for this administration, is nothing more than a meeting place for their mutual marxist ideals to be joined together. God Help Us.

Yet further foreign policy genius, no? Clown Prince nobama and traitor kerry are so impressive in their incompetence and purposeful destroying of Free America’s influence abroad. Both should be in prison for their many, many crimes.

On Friday, he [Obama via Kerry] capitulated.

******************************

And we are not surprised why? They both have been giving new meaning to ‘surrender monkeys’. Obama is going to have to start borrowing lipstick from Moochelle if he wants to draw more red lines around the world ... Crayola & Sharpie are out of red.

Which is why I respect Putin. At least he has principles.

Obama doesn’t have any - and now he’s thrown Kiev under the bus.

I tried to warn Kiev’s new leaders about enraging the Russian Bear, that the West is a fickle, unreliable and untrustworthy friend.

Now they’re watching their country being dismembered without a Western response. This is what you get by choosing the West as your friend.

Now see if it’ll bail out your bankrupt economy. When its too much of a burden for them, they’ll dump Ukraine at first opportunity.

And you’re stuck with Russia anyway.

This episode has demonstrated to the American people that Putin is a Russian nationalist and a serious man. It has also shown that Obama and Kerry are out of their depth. Obama looks puny and silly when the inevitable comparisons are made.

Bump!

Yes. The O_tard had already told Putin he would do nothing.

BUT notice John Fn Kerry’s statement:

“I think all of us who are joined together in the EU and extended contact group understand those interest and are prepared to respect them.”

We do not belong to the EU, but I am sure that is part of Obozo’s end game plan. Destroy the US and merge US the the other Global Fascist B_tards.

Now the question? Is this the real reason that the Congress refuses to confront Obozo’s abuse of his authority? Are they all complicit in this scheme.

The answer? Unknown. I am sure some are, how many is the question.

Stalin once reacted to a negative comment made by the Pope by asking "and how many divisions does *he* have?"

Stalin's successor knows exactly how many divisions we have but doesn't fear them in the least.That's because he knows that today many of them fly the rainbow banner....and he knows who's ultimately in command of them.

Implicit in the article is the thought that either the Europeans or the Americans could influence the events.

Neither has any ability to do so. The absorption of Crimea is a fiat accompli.

There is a question about an illegal election. An election is an election. The people will speak........ and favor Russia over the undesirable government in Kiev. The question of legality is therefore moot.

Even if Obama/Lurch had international credibility or respect, there is no real leverage over events in Ukraine. It will play out as it will with no influence from America.

Dragging out tired old Chamberlain thoughts are also meaningless. He was like Obama, powerless to influence events but screwed up mightily by uttering “peace in out time”.

If I was Crimean - I would vote to join Russia.

Why? Because I see Kiev cannot even keep the country together, it cannot count on the West to protect it.

But I can count on Russia - it can be counted to be there when a call was put out for its help and its acceded to the request to allow Crimea to join it.

I would definitely rely more on Russia than on the West - and quite frankly, so would any sane person living in that part of the world.

An Obama promise is an expendable one.

Another "Line in the Sand" epic fail for the cowardly B.O.
B.O.'s bravery exists only when he is attacking American values and traditions.
