Me too. Putin is playing those fools like a fiddle. Joe Biden is the biggest buffoon in politics today. Does anyone take him seriously?

The entire world outside of clueless American voters knows very well Obama will do nothing at all other than bleat.

The sad part is, clueless American voters will believe he's actually accomplished something, or at least the .05% who keep track of what is happening in the world past the end of their nose.

This administration is unbelievably pathetic.

This would be hilarious if it was not so serious. The Ukraine is an important obstacle to Russia’s expansion and itself a valuable asset. Its being shoplifted by a bunch of thugs and the only way out is WW3.
