I don’t think he did it for the 2014 elections.
I think he realizes he’ll be a lame duck after the 2014 elections so he’s ramming through everything he can right now.. including Syria, etc.

I do not have any liberal friends or co workers but I express my opinion about obama each time I get an opening.
This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against you, Gog, chief prince of[b] Meshek and Tubal. 4 I will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws and bring you out with your whole armyyour horses, your horsemen fully armed, and a great horde with large and small shields, all of them brandishing their swords. 5 Persia, Cush[c] and Put will be with them, all with shields and helmets, 6 also Gomer* with all its troops, and Beth Togarmah from the far north with all its troopsthe many nations with you.
7 Get ready; be prepared, you and all the hordes gathered about you, and take command of them. 8 After many days you will be called to arms. In future years you will invade a land that has recovered from war, whose people were gathered from many nations to the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate. They had been brought out from the nations, and now all of them live in safety. 9 You and all your troops and the many nations with you will go up, advancing like a storm; you will be like a cloud covering the land.
* Gomer, with all his troops
And we will become Al Qaeda's air force?
Landing ships are also routinely used by our Navy for high-priority “NEO” operations, as in, “Non-combatant Evacuation Operations.”
In this case, for getting Russian nationals out.
Or in the case of the U.S. Navy, getting the PLO out of Beirut in 1982, for example.
These Russian amphibious ships are probably full of Russian Marines who will go ashore to defend Russian interests, and gather up Russian nationals if that is ordered.
Now time for rodeo clown diplomacy
I think it is much, much worse.
The Benghazi affair was all about getting missiles and other weaponry to the Syrian rebels, using Al Kida, in an operation that would bring down the administration if proved. All the talk about what difference it made, anti-Muslim videos, letting the ambassador die, etc, are pointing to something bigger than just a run-of-the-mill cluster %#$/.
The facts about Benghazi are tied up in Syria. Obama needs to keep the tie-in off the radar scope. Gassing children in their sleep is fine if it lets you keep your office.
I must confess, that of late, I have enjoyed greatly Putin playing the cat, to Barry’s mouse, but this morning, the ante has been upped, and we are all going to be playing for keeps.
And I fear that our arrogant little Barry doesn’t care that there is no way out of this one, where he can save face.
We will soon see FRiend, if our “representatives” do see the way out, and use it now.
Tatt
Russia has been victim to several terrorist attacks, deaths, in last 5 years, one in the heart of Moscow . Putin is concerned with US training,arming and funding Al Qaeda rebels in a nearby country, ultimately regime change
Just how nucking futz is Obama, and will anyone in the General Staff tell him NO...
For every drop in his poll numbers his mind becomes more and more paralyzed with fear and , like a addicted gambler, will keep doubling down until the very end.
The military or as he calls it, MY military is the only REAL strength he has because he is totally devoid of real strength of courage and character.
The military, in my opinion, wouldn’t have to arrest him, just deny him from using them for his maniacal purposes and his house of cards and his regime will fall.
Please strip all bias out of your soul -- I have it too, btw -- and observe his tone and demeanor with great objectivity, so that I can truly ascertain his attitude.
Visualize whirrled peas
Thank you for that great information. I appreciate your input. You know your stuff.
I'm not even sure he's our guy.
Smoke just got popped on the politicial battlefield, indicating he might be more compliant.
