I’m afraid the Russians have figured out how to deal with our Shills Hillary and Obama.

Good. The Russians cannot take on our entire navy, but they don’t have to. I hope they can at least put enough assets in theater to prevent us from toppling Assad and putting someone even worse in his place. It’s a strange feeling watching the “Commander”-in-Chief working for America’s destruction while the Russians are working in the best interests of the free world.

RE: "Did you see this one:"
No I didn't Ernest. Thanks. I'm trying to keep my swearing down to a minimum so early in this new year, but it seems like it is going to be a bit hard to do.

They’re worried about losing their Syrian naval base that gives them easy access to the Mediterannean.

Nope. Thanks. Why is the State Department and not the Department of Defense building this? I have made the mistake of thinking that our government supports freedom, but the Democrats are in charge now.

I know, that was part of the idea. I don’t think today’s Russian leadership is actually good, but they’re not actively evil either, which makes them the best of today’s superpower leaders. So long as they are keeping Assad in power and the terrorists who want Syria for their own reason out of power, for whatever reason, they are helping the free world.
