Rep. Steve King: Obama Too Weak for Putin Meeting

President Barack Obama doesn’t have a strong hand or the dominant personality needed to negotiate with Russian President Vladimir Putin, and that’s why the United States backed out of a September one-on-one meeting, says Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa.

“If they neither fear you nor respect you, it’s going to be awfully hard to talk them into letting (NSA leaker Edward) Snowden come back into the United States in our custody,” King said Wednesday on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity.” …

I bet moochelle can take Putin.
Ya know she kicks obammy’s rear regularly but that’s like beating up an 8 year old brownie.

[Olog-hai]

“We”? I don’t think it’s that simple. Liberals do not fit into that “we” category (which includes RINO fakers) and certainly not into the category of “Christian”. Remember that Obama does not believe that the USA is a Christian nation anyhow, saying so back in 2008; those that back him up in the areas you pointed out certainly subscribe to that point of view.

[Olog-hai]

That’s the next move, indeed. And Mr. NASA Muslim Outreach is leaving the barn door wide open too.

100,000 thousand Syrians

That's 100 million. They should be running completely out of Syrians just about now.

We as a "Christian" nation helped al qaeda and the mb in Libya and Syria to fight Russian backed strong men... men who controlled these demons for decades... how is it that we differ from them?

The RATs are no "Christian nation".

I live in Realville... almost all dims and republicans claim to be Christian... even nazi peloser, obama and reid... even though obama says we are not a Christian nation... we most certainly are. We Christians do not agree with what this government is doing in many cases but that does not change the fact that the world sees our government acting on our behalf... whether we want what the government does or not. I posit that we are no different than Putin... we are still playing cold war politics and the world stands on the knife edge of anarchy. We have enemies that are satan’s army... and we are arming them and helping them to kill Christians and others. Watch Egypt and the Suez Canal... THAT is our latest and most dangerous chasm.

Claiming to be Christian and actually being Christian are worlds apart. You shall know them by their fruits, as it’s written. And I have to say that I myself see our politicians no different from Putin either.

[LibLieSlayer]

No they are not... but almost every one of them claims to be... including the kenyan... and the World sees our government as carrying out the will of the people... even though that is not the case. Like I said in my post above this one... "we" (THE US GOVERNMENT AND ITS ACTIONS) are no different than that of Russians.

[LibLieSlayer]

Well then... we are of like minds. I agree with you about many republicans and all rats. Have a great day... going to practice a bit of Capitalism.

BTW, the European Union thinks it owns the Suez Canal. Check out page 30 of this report put out back in May by their Institute for Security Studies.

Weakness throughout history was a vice. Today it is a virtue.

I’ll read it at lunch... thanks!

"....Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools, such as those who made him their president.”...

BAM!

Well, we can’t stay quite this simple. Audience has to be considered as well. With due respect, even the 10 commandments were like the picture books of God’s kindergarten; and Christ has us in college now. The sabbath is the key that God put in there to make it obvious, if it wasn’t. We have new wineskins now, not old ones. As another example of the expansion of grace... the 10 commandments said don’t curse father or mother (and also prescribed a literal death penalty for doing so). The gospel says do not curse ANYONE on this mortal coil and in fact attempt to bless them until they have departed it.

Now if this isn’t dynamite grace... I do not know what is.

[lonestar]

Eh? So changing the constitution to suit the man at the top is morally OK?

It happens here everyday!

[HiTech RedNeck]

Bock bock bock... of course, Putin’s system is more authoritarian, there is plenty of demoralization in Russia, but at least it’s doing a better job of resisting having it come to the top.

The gospel still holds the same hope out for a people (individually and collectively) that it always did. The Lion of Judah will roar again if you give him a big hug and mean it....

[HiTech RedNeck]

Nicely put. What idiocy let it happen? The mechanisms were there, but the people went la-di-dah. If the good won’t walk through the door, the bad will.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Roar, Lion, Roar!

[Olog-hai]

That doesn’t make it right, of course.
