And we wouldn’t make passes if a Russian ship sailed into the Gulf and started patrolling our coastline?
What would we do if Putin decided to sink it? Have Obama or his carefully selected military leaders made any plans for what they would do in response?
You don’t make a provocative move like that—sending a warship into what are basically Russian waters, whatever the international legal position may be—without having backup plans. But it seems very unlikely that Obama’s jerks have made any such plans.

Oh, it's the US that is being provocative.
Not the dictator who invaded and annexed his neighbor's territory.
Obama has been successful: made previously sane Americans start blaming their own country for everything it does - even when it does the right thing.
Putin loves this: weakminded Americans are his best friends.
My thinking exactly. We’re talking tough and making all kinds of threats then move a warship into what is basically Russian’s Gulf of Mexico. I think we’d be checking it out. At least I hope we would. Then again....
backwoods-engineer, at least all the countries of the world love us. /s
They're busy right now and can't be bothered. The new LGBQT recruitment campaign is about to kickoff and they're putting the final rainbow colors on the new uniforms.
Oh Black Sea is Russian now? I thought it was international waters.
Did we buzz the Russian ships that paid a call to Cuba?
I can’t believe the excuses around here for Russia’s increasingly aggressive actions.

Obama seems to be following the footsteps of LBJ
