Putin just flipped us the bird.
It's amazing how impotent we are in spite of being the world's only superpower.
Iran wants to build nuclear weapons? We respond with harsh language.
Russia wants to support Iran and Syria? Nothing we can really do about it.
China coddles North Korea? No problem.
Chavez from Venezuela pokes a stick in our cage daily? No reaction.
I'm not saying Bush or anyone else is to blame for it, but it's obvious that we don't have a whole lot of political pull worldwide. Other countries pretty much do as they please with not much fear of any response from us.
