Newsday ^

President Obama is facing perhaps the most difficult foreign policy challenge of his administration with the confrontation with Russian President Vladimir Putin over Ukraine and disputed territory in the Crimean peninsula.

Obama last week said the United States would "stand with the international community in affirming that there will be costs for any military intervention in Ukraine."

President does not care what Putin or most anyone else does (With the exception of liberty minded people and Israel); won the second term so he is coasting through life courtesy of an unlimited White House budget, sycophantic media, and other people's money.

Putin outsmarting the highest IQ POTUS is history?
Putin pushing around the messianic He who courageously does whatever He wants despite the solemn oath He gave to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution, all the while heroically keeping His boot to the throat of the will of the American people?
Putin toying the smartest, toughest politician in America?

“If we use force,” Putin responded this week, “we have received a request from a legitimate president.”

Actually that could be a backhanded slap at Obama...!

Putin is outsmarting him at every level; these moves were planned long ago and are part of a worldwide plan.

Considering he was one of the US Senators who led the charge to disarm Ukraine, I think it’s more likely Obama is a Soviet agent.

My toaster is more capable than Zero - won’t praise Putin, but he’s leveraging his power to enhance the status of his country. Our yo-yo in chief will stand with any organization/group/community that dilutes our country’s status/position.

"Who isn't outsmarting Obama everywhere?"

Do the names McConnell and Boehner ring any bells?
