Is this guy simply starving for attention? Putting on a show for the folks back home? Hoping to regain superpower status? Or just an egotist?

I knew no good would come to electing a former KGB chief as Russian president.

This is merely ANOTHER example of the Administration incredible ineptness on foreign policy. Its almost as if the father was guiding the son.

Putting anti-missile bases near Russia’s border’s given our strined relations, Putin’s background and the Russian traditional xenophobic persecution-complex attitudes was the height of stupidity. One would expect better from a Secretary of State who allegedly majored in Soviet affairs.

The only possible outcome of such a move is what is what we are now seeing.

The Russians and Putin in particular, were never our friends. But we shouldn’t be doing things to unnecessarily aggrevate them as it distracts from what should be our main focus - Iran.

Putin is *really* jealous of President-for-Life Hugo Chavez and is trying his best to best him in the media. Future President-for-Life Vladimir is even out looking for a parrot that is smarter than he is...
