At this point, if Putin runs against Obama in 2012, I’ll vote for Putin.

Especially if he picks Sarah as his running mate.

Pretty sad that all what Reagan and Bush Sr did during their terms of service in the whitehouse to fight communism has all been destroyed in a couple months by Obama.
We are now more bolshevik then the USSR. God help us.

The irony is absolutely breath-taking.

I feel like I’m trapped in a Kafka nightmare.

A power-hungry, big-time KGB guy is telling the prez of an ostensibly or at least previously capitalist country that he’s raising taxes too high.

Stunnig. And, some of you may have read the recent Pravda column about our race to communism at breakneck speed.

Some of use have been saying this for a long time. and it wasn’t just Obama-—the “troubles” started in you know who’s administration.

Obama would have done just fine in the old Soviet days...in the USSR.

OK, first of all, I don’t “like” Putin. He’d break it off in our rear at the first opportunity. However, I do very much respect him. Why? Because the guy is highly intelligent and MOST IMPORTANTLY he looks out for the interests of his country and his people.

In other words, he is doing his job, and he does it pretty well. You gotta respect that. What a contrast to what we’ve got for a leader.

Comparing Putin and 0bama, I see some similarities to a comparison with Stalin and Hitler. Like Putin, Stalin was a pragmatist dedicated to hard work to improve the position of Russia, although Putin clearly has avoided Stalin’s brutal excesses. Hitler, on the other hand, was a “dilettante” dictator, more interested in making speeches to the adoring crowd. As an administrator and leader, well, you only have to look at photographs of the skyline of the average German city in 1945 to see how that worked out.

We know what happened when Hitler tangled with Stalin. I pray 0bama doesn’t try to mess with Putin.

Not surprising....

The world knows when Atlas is shrugging, and they have no problem identifying who and where Atlas is.

Obama has positioned himself to the left of an ex-KGB thug?

They know where the road Mr Obama is taking us down leads.If we go where they went, the consequences for the civilized world will be great. We carry the world on our shoulders, if we shrug, it would be a catastrophe.

This is bad. We have a Hardcore Commie KGB agent (Putin) and the Chinese Communist Party head (Hu Jintao/Wen Jibao) lecturing us about going towards Communism, and Hugo Chavez and Castro warning us about moving too far left.

Next will be North Korea, telling us that we are acting too weak towards their country and defying their propaganda.

Prime Minister Vladimir Putin on Monday criticized U.S. President Barack Obama's plan to raise taxes on U.S. companies' foreign operations, saying it would amount to double taxation that will hurt the global economy.

Putin '12!
