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."

I know he’s like Hitler, that’s why I wanted to set the RE-SET BUTTON with him.

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.

Look up the Wildlands Project/Turtle Island that Ayres fellow travelers in the Mainstream enviro movement like Sierra Club and the United nations lent their names and full support to.

It calls for a couple hundred thousand people in America. Tops. And that means a whole lot less liberals as well as us.

I began studying it and writing about it over a decade ago. It is quite real and info on it is there for anyone that cares to look. It sounds totally nuts. And it is. Which is what they rely on to move their agenda onward. No one takes it seriously. But they do.

She has some serious stugatz talking about Russia squandering the potential of their nation. I guess what her and her kind have done to this nation doesn’t matter.

Putin may be a ‘tough guy with thin skin’ but he also has about 8000 nuclear weapons and the second largest airforce and Navy in the world, and army fully equipped with non-treaty limited nuclear weapons(Thank you Obama) for that matter.

Are we really at the point of international relations between major powers being reduced to name calling? Is that REALLY all this administration is capable of because if it is we may end up in a nuclear war.

Hillary’s “Reset/Overload” button just may be the eventual launching of nukes out of our administration’s sheer incompetence and stupidity as is ever more evident as every day passes.

Obama’s nuke treaty didn’t limit ‘tactical’ nuclear weapons, which the Russians have in abundance...

Russia was NOT stupid like the USA and did not outsource their industrial base to China. They can sustain the fight, make good on attrition. Free Tradsky? Not.

“Hillary Clinton is a reptile in a somewhat human body.”

Back in the days when folks from FR engaged other forums in open warfare there was a gif image of Hillary with a snake’s tongue that would slip in and out of her mouth.

The libs at the other sites went bat sh_t crazy over that image being posted.

Hitlery hit that reset button with Russia...heckuva job, there, Hit.

Let’s see...Hitlery’s accomplishments are so numerous, let’s name some...

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

And those are just a few.

Consider, she:
6.
7.
and
8.

So you can see, the Impeached Sink Stainer’s wife is really a very accomplished woman.

Plus she has those cankles and that cackling laugh. So she has that going for her.
