Putin looked at Obama on TV... He is supposed to be the 'leader of the free world'. And he rejects that role. He doesn't believe in the concept of the free world, and he doesn't believe in America as leader of it. Both Obama and Putin hate America, hate freedom and think America should be destroyed.
Besides the gay thing, they are both on the same page.

Okay, but Mr. Putin is the leader of another country that’s been in opposition to the United States since 1917. Mr. Obama is the putative head of our government. I would expect him to be on “our” side whereas I wouldn’t be surprised that the leader of Russia is not allied with our ideals and goals. See the difference?

I'm pro-choice, and I vote with my feet, which is what Pfizer and other people are doing...what's really sad is that American companies have like a trillion dollars sitting overseas that could be brought back here with some adjustments to our tax laws - that plus some fracking and the Keystone Pipeline, and this economy could be humming as it hasn't for years - and by the way, tax revenues to the government would be wiping out the national debt like all the tax increases 'rats want impose never will.....

Well, we’ve had our own contingent right here damning the U. S. for not withdrawing it’s head under it’s shell. We’re going to see how that plays out. It isn’t going to be the peace and bliss those folks swore it would be.
The world is going to hell in a hand-basket, and we’ll start out from scratch with no allies that will trust us, after we’ve withdrawn and abandoned them all previously.

He doesn't believe in the concept of the free world, and he doesn't believe in America as leader of it. He doesn't even believe in the concept of America, attempting to dissolve the southern border. Nations are just SO passé.

His leadership doesn’t concern ‘the free world.’
