Uh oh! Barry’s going to be pissed.
“presidential press service”
hey we have one of those, it’s abc nbc cbs cnn msnbc pbs .....................
The West has been giving Russia the Finger for years....Now the shoe is on the other foot.
Fixed it. Now what letter will Obama write?
Sounds like Sevastopol will have the same status as the Kalingrad outpost which is part of Russia.
Now that's what a reset looks like.
States’ Rights!
Zero engaged in clenched fist, foot stomping tantrum.
2nd thought, maybe Zero is priming the pump for his indignation and defiance when Texas pulls the trigger and succeeds.
The West needs a real reply to this before he takes Poland.
Since the IRS and the EPA can’t hurt Putin or the Russians, Obama’s got nothing.
Very clever.
Given the number of commies in Washington DC, we might expect Putin to tell is that Washington DC has a special status, and will be recognized as a sovereign and independent state.
Maybe the Community Organizer will call for a “die in” or something...
Putin will address the Federal Assembly (Russian parliament) at 15:00 Moscow time on Tuesday March 18.... in connection with Crimea’s and Sevastopol’s appeals for accession to Russia.
I’d be interested in hearing that. No doubt Washington ears will be ‘ON’ to see what Putin has to say...
Wonder if there’s live online from RUssia available...maybe RT will broadcast it..I suspect so.
Land for peace. Two nations, two states. Next, a free and independent Kurdistan.
while Obama signs a decree making this month Sodomite appreciate month!

US Rep. Ron Paul:
“Residents of Crimea voted over the weekend on whether they would remain an autonomous region of Ukraine or join the Russian Federation. In so doing, they joined a number of countries and regions — including recently Scotland, Catalonia and Venice — that are seeking to secede from what they view as unresponsive or oppressive governments.
These latter three are proceeding without much notice, while the overwhelming Crimea vote to secede from Ukraine has incensed U.S. and European Union officials, and has led NATO closer to conflict with Russia than since the height of the Cold War.
What’s the big deal? Opponents of the Crimea vote like to point to the illegality of the referendum. But self-determination is a centerpiece of international law. Article I of the United Nations Charter points out clearly that the purpose of the U.N. is to “develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples.”
Why does the U.S. care which flag will be hoisted on a small piece of land thousands of miles away?
Critics point to the Russian “occupation” of Crimea as evidence that no fair vote could have taken place. Where were these people when an election held in an Iraq occupied by U.S. troops was called a “triumph of democracy”?
Perhaps the U.S. officials who supported the unconstitutional overthrow of Ukraine’s government should refocus their energies on learning our own Constitution, which does not allow the U.S. government to overthrow governments overseas or send a billion dollars to bail out Ukraine and its international creditors.
Though the Obama administration has applied some minimal sanctions on selected Russian and Crimean individuals, neither the U.S. nor the EU can afford significant sanctions against Russia. Global trade provides too much economic benefit to both sides.
Indeed, international markets rallied on news that the sanctions would be thus far minimal. They understand that trade and economic engagement are the surest roads to peace and prosperity. Let’s hope governments will follow their lead.”
