I’m sure the feeling is mutual.

>>Putin’s best strategy might be to just wait.

Of course. That was our best strategy during the collapse of the Soviet government too. But, there were still some anxious moments as submarine and missile bases stopped paying and feeding the people who had the keys to the bunkers and silos.

Putin goes fishing and laughs at odumbo.

Who ever thought I would respect the leader of Russia more than the president of the U.S. Pathetic!

You know what they would say about that picture if he were holding a sucker.

To prevent U.S.-Russian relations from deteriorating any further, why doesn’t Obama send his trusted team of diplomatic experts, John McCain and Lindsey Graham, to Moscow to fix everything, just as he’s sending them to Egypt to fix that country’s problems?

Obama is at a major disadvantage when dealing with someone like Vladimir Putin, since Obama’s major ‘’opponents’’ during his presidency have been almost exclusively individuals of such weakness and foolishness, i.e., Republicans, from John Boehner to Mitch McConnell to John McCain, that he has never had to face anyone like Vladimir Putin, someone strong, intelligent, and aggressively interested in getting his way.

Obama should probably stay as far away as possible from the Russians and their superior leader during the remainder of his presidency.

The temporary asylum for him might just be to allow ease of application for permanent asylum in a place of his choice, and ease his transit there. If Putin really want to tell the current occupant of our White House to shove it, he’d have granted the whistle-blower permanent asylum, which might happen yet if the Kenyan clown-show keeps pushing it.

"'Russia has stabbed us in the back, and each day that Mr. Snowden is allowed to roam free is another twist of the knife,' Schumer said.”

Schumer was probably expecting a response more in the manner that he was accustomed to.



Perhaps comrade obama should tread lightly with Putin lest someday he find himelf in Snowden's shoes.

Of course it's working. The Russian inscription means "overload"

The right picture would be like this:

Hmm... Not likely to be that many lakes a 21 km pike would even fit into.
