Putin is set to respond to Obama's sanctions of Russian officials with his own list. Several U.S. Senators and officials will be banned from visiting Russia, including Sen. Dick Durbin.

U.S. senators, congressmen and top Obama administration officials are sure to be on Vladimir Putin’s sanctions list; a response to the Obama Administration’s announcement on Monday that 7 Russian officials and 4 Ukrainian officials would be barred from holding assets or traveling to the United States.

Just don’t call the Russian NHL players back home!

Well, Ovechkin they can have back.

But leave Malkin, Bobrovsky and Anisimov!

Putin is going to repeat history such as the French assisting Americans in the Revolutionary War. He is going to rally up the Tea Party and form an alliance, cause he is sick and tired of that lame rooster sitting in the Whitehouse trying to start WW3.

If only we could ban Durbin from visiting the US.

I don’t think the community organizer amateur-in-chief is mentally capable of a pissin’ match with Vlad.

US Senators going over to Ukraine and embracing the coup-installed government there was wildly inappropriate. What if Russian elected politicians came over here and said they’d support the thugs who violently overthrew a government?

You know that this whole scenario was set up to deflect the debacle known as Obamaramacare.

Sort of a Wag the Dog’s gonads. If there were EVER two politicians that shared the same ideals and dreams it is Putin and Obama. They are VERY good friends.This is just Vlad tossing some relief to the Indonesian.

Will it? How many American Senators own assets in Russia? How many Russian Senators own assets here? I suspect the latter is a much larger number.

Putin is probably 20 moves ahead of the manchild Obama. One is playing multi-level chess and the other is playing tiddlywinks.

Our senators don’t get fabulously wealthy owning traceable assets here in the USA.

Sure they do.
Insider trading is legal for them.
Even CNBC reported that Congress makes “market crushing” returns.

Since about 70-80 most of our Senators are working for Mexico and otherwise destroying our nation’s future by turning our children and grandchildren into debt slaves, I would like to sanction them, too.
