Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Wednesday called Russian President Vladimir Putin a "tough guy with a thin skin" and said he is "squandering the potential" of Russia with his aggressive posture in Ukraine.

"I know we are dealing with a tough guy with a thin skin," she said during a speech at UCLA, citing her experiences with Putin during her time at the State Department.

"I know that his political vision is of a greater Russia," she added. "I said when I was still secretary that his goal is to re-Sovietize Russia’s periphery, but in the process he is squandering the potential of such a great nation, the nation of Russia, and threatening instability and even the peace of Europe."

Hillary Clinton is a reptile in a somewhat human body.

She will say anything to make herself look tough, because the Witch wants to be president.

If Putin, whom I no doubt suffers from an inflated ego has a thin skin, then ohomo is a balsa wood skeleton glazed in a corn syrup based cellulose, and it just started to rain.

Having a strategy in dealing with Russian or for that matter Chinese ambitions would be better than name calling. Maybe this is why we are where we are today.

Perhaps Obama would go after Putin more if he thought Putin was a Conservative, maybe he can get his buddy Lois Lerner to audit him

Funny how they just keep goading Russia toward a confrontation. Almost like they need a war to help erase the mess they created. And a bunch of bitter clingers along with it.
