I have never seen such a rush by freepers to support the Obama regime’s position on anything!

This Ukraine mess (at least partly due to US meddling) has really brought out the knives around here.

I wish JimRob would weigh in with his thoughts, I find that his views are always well thought out regarding foreign affairs..

All I know for certain is that the US MSM lies more often than they tell the truth and that Obama has never been on the right side of any matter of foreign affairs....but perhaps this is a first for him?

IMO the east and south of Ukraine will fall into Russia’s control. There is no way to stop this. I doubt the people in those regions will be any worse off than they are now and would not be surprised if they fare much better. Those who cannot stomach Russia can walk to the west, those in the west who cannot stomach the leaders in Kiev can walk eastward...seems pretty simple to me. I wish we had a separate group of conservative states that we could migrate to here in the US. Choice is a very good thing.

Obama and his minions are going to keep pushing until the US dollar loses world reserve currency status. We will then be up $hit creek. Ukraine means nothing whatsoever to the vast majority of Americans...and this is how it should be...foreign entanglements are to be avoided. We will end up printing billions of new dollars to support Kiev all in an attempt to keep Obama from looking the fool.

“All I know for certain is that the US MSM lies more often than they tell the truth and that Obama has never been on the right side of any matter of foreign affairs.”

We have reached the point where Obama’s continuous lying, and the mainstream media’s covering for it, have become an actual National Security Issue.

Our allies no longer trust us.
Or enemies are laughing in Obama’s face.

Nothing he says can be believed by anyone to be true, or meant. The only sure thing in US Policy under these radical nutjobs is that the biased Media drones will attack and destroy ANYONE that dares to point this out.

USAID announced another NEW billion dollar loan of borrowed Chinese money to Ukraine on Friday...

Actually, salaries in Crimea are now 2.5x what they were under Ukraine. I doubt that fact was lost on the voters. Regardless of politics and ideology, people wanna live a good life. All of the resources, industry and money are in the East. The current Ukrainian govt would bleed those regions dry thru austerity and EU demanded taxes. That is why the EU wants the country to stay whole.

I have a hard time condemning the separatists that just wanna lead a good life.
