Obama opens his mouth and once again proves that he is an idiot.

For a long time nobama’s problem has been that he believes his own bullshit.

The Russian bear ain’t to be trifled with. Them claws is sharp.

Ridiculous is right. Obama called him a regional power on the same day that they are delivering one of our astronauts to the space station because we no longer have that capability.

Zero stopped caring about being President 2 years ago. It’s all just a hassle for him now.

Did you note that obama said it would be bad for the global economy but Russia will be affected the most. I contend this is the plan. Then comes the UN and one world government. I used to say the muslims would never go along with it. I’m now hoping Putin won’t go along with it either.

“I continue to be much more concerned when it comes to our security with the prospect of a nuclear weapon going off in Manhattan.”

By who? Certainly not AQ, right? Since we defeated them a few years ago, right?

Yep, Barry, and that's why they keep hitting you in the face with the dodgeball just to see you run to the teacher about the big bad bully

Russia is a global superpower, not a regional power.

Someone is feeding BS to the BS master.

What happened: Obama, smarting from Romney’s on-target, blistering criticism, responds like a whiny, immature adolescent in order to make what he thinks is a smart political point and to preserve his fragile ego. In the process he stupidly antagonizes a nuclear power that has very recently demonstrated the willingness to aggressively annex its neighbor. Brilliant! As someone else said, this is what happens when you have an affirmative action President.

This is the get ready for war paradigm I trained for all those years ago. The Cold War is reborn and we're commanded by Curly from the stooges. I never missed Reagan as much as I do right now. If any of the Republicans in the 2012 lineup had won the Oval, we likely wouldn't be in this mess right now.

Oh yeah, very weak. That’s why Putin’s busy setting up bases in the newly Communist countries in Latin America, extending his influence through Iran...oh, all those good things.

Obama is such a fool.

At least we now know what Obama’s foreign policy is: If a ‘’regional power’’ like Russia takes over another country in its own region like Crimea, the Obama administration will dismiss it as irrelevant since it doesn’t ‘’pose a leading security threat to the United States.’’

Okay, Xi Jinping of China, you can now take over any country in your region, just like Vladimir Putin can take over any country in Russia’s region, and you won’t hear a peep out of the United States president except maybe to call you weak. And Kim Jung Un, what are you waiting for? North Korea is a regional power, so you’re now allowed to drop one of your nuclear warheads on Japan since it’s part of your region. Isn’t this fun?

Does anyone remember the domino affect form the 60’s and 70;s under the pathetic leadership we had and now it is back. the leadership of this country is in the tank. Spending more time trying to destroy our own nation than any other country has in the last 200 years.

Somebody tell him that the Russians have nuclear weapons that could go off in Manhattan, DC, Chicago, California and Hawaii.

In 1960, Nikita Krushchev said “We will destroy America”, then sent a Kenyan communist agent to Hawaii to meet a meet a female leftist named Stanley.
The rest is unfortunate history...
