Any questions?
Are you a man or a woman?
Seriously.
Sick of voting for the lesser evil, vote for the greater evil...
I don’t think Putin is scratching his head and wondering. I think he sees it for exactly what it is.
Obama intended to hand America over to his MUSLIM brotherhood, but AWWWWWW wait just a darn minute, Putin has other plans. Unbelievably easy for Putin.
When the U.S. Propaganda Machine announces that Putin is a KGB Thug, it immediately occurs to me that there's no difference between a KGB Thug and a U.S. Democrat Politician.
Trust the Christian former KGB... or the Muslim former community organizer?
I think Putin is probably concerned that a loose cannon as powerful as the United States is beset upon the world.
The Russian people are aware of Mark Dice's canvass of people in California who agreed with the absurd ideas of attacking Russia (today!), setting up Nazi style concentration camps in the U.S., etc. Such Leftist insanity is frightening enough to us, but imagine how it is perceived in other nations. And this is only a tiny glimpse into the madness of the decadent, degenerate U.S. Left, which has seized control of the United States.
You can be sure that the Russians are monitoring the United States very closely. And the mass insanity of the U.S. Left that they witness can only frighten and disturb them immensely.
Fortunately, they are also aware of the millions of sane, responsible Americans who oppose the insane left. They probably read Free Republic regularly. Hello, Boris!
No more than the Democrat politicians who are running the United States.
Yes, Obama has made a mess of things and is playing a double game. But if Putin wants to use the term “terrorists” to mean “armed combatants”, he needs to be consistent. Terrorists use dramatic attacks against (mostly) civilian targets to undermine regimes, force their agenda onto the front burner, and gain political objectives when they conventional military options. ISIS burns people in cages, kidnaps girls for mass rape, destroys ancient monuments, etc. to get media attention to sow terror to get their way. ISIS operates as terrorists, even in military strength, yet Putin’s focus is not on ISIS.
Why are irregular forces fighting Assad’s army on the battlefield “terrorists”, if Putin’s proxy forces in Ukraine are not? How about Putin’s forces fighting in Syria — how are they different from the anti-Assad elements? Are Assad’s own forces “terrorists” when they use poisoned gas or bomb and shell cities, but not when they fight the rebels on the battlefield? Enough BS.
Putin & Lavrov v Obama & Kerry
Marxists v neo-marxists (who need training wheels and helmets to prevent bike accidents)
"Russia moving in under the pretense of ridding the region of ISIS is like the Mafia moving to your neighborhood under the pretense of moving out a violent street gang, then setting up a permanent base there to do Mob business.However, I do not think that Obama and Putin are in cahoots about this."Russia will grow wealthier, more powerful, more aggressive in their overall expansionist agenda (Eastern Europe, eventually elsewhere), and much more of a threat to the US and its allies throughout the region and the world.
"Sure its great IF they actually do get rid of ISIS (we shall see). But having a country like Russia step in and gain such huge strategic advantage over the US and its allies is nothing we should be cheering about.
Putin is seizing an enormous advantage as the United States and the other Western nations sink deeper and deeper in a quagmire of decadence, self-destruction, mass insanity, and mass cultural suicide. As they abandon their positions of power and influence in the world, Putin sees not only the opportunity to expand Russia's power to fill the power-vacuum, but also the necessity to do so, because, if he doesn't, some other power--e.g. China, ISIS, Iran, or something else--will; so he really doesn't have a choice.
If the Americans are going to succumb to mass insanity and suicide--and they seem determined to do exactly that!--someone or something is going to seize power over them and the rest of the world. Vladimir Putin is positioning himself to be the one to do it. From his point of view, why would he allow anyone else to do it?
there is the rub for all Patriotic Americans.

Well said and I will add my "Hello Boris" here. Be known that there is still a remnant of us left. We known & feel your DISGUST with our Moran in Chief, hang in there with us.
