Crimera has been part of Russia longer than Texas has been part of the United States. Kruschev, a Ukraneian, gave it back to Ukraine in the 50’s

Ø looks to logic, reason, and morality in his confusion over why Putin did something ..

Mr.Hanson, you either need to SERIOUSLY rethink that hallucination, or include </s> next time.

On September 1, 1939, Hitler was both militarily and economically weaker than France and Britain combined.

On paper, maybe, but wars aren't fought and won and lost on paper.

Your question: Why do weak nations like Russia provoke stronger ones like the United States? is wrong. It should be "Why do strong leaders like Putin provoke weaker ones like Obama?". The answer is obvious. Because they can with impunity.

So, was Alaska longer in Russia than in the United States? Just curious.

VDH is right, of course.

A feckless Potus is in way over his head.

Misdemeanor.

Impeach, convict and remove.

Do it now.

Forget strength. There is only one calculation: Can I win?

I thin Crimea is a misdirection. I think Russia/Putin wants Estonia.

Red lines in Syria proved pink.

Fraught with symbolism.

Obama the pampered prince hasn't a clue what the exercise of power is.

Though he was tutored on the "glorious Red Army" on Frank Marshall Davis' lap--or at his knee, or wherever--

Obama used CIA and NATO to empower the Muslim Brotherhood, to replace secular regimes with Islamist ones in the "Arab Spring"

Obama promised to be more "flexible" vis-a-vis ABM sites, and pursues disarmament and defense cuts--

Does he merely feign intellectual fecklessness?

Is he really nothing more than an enemy mole serving Saudi/Soviet/Sino/Soros ends?

Come, glib puppet, live a life of luxury as our surrogate--destroy the object of your twisted hate. . . .

I say he wants both, and probably more.

You’re not going to get an answer. Putin invaded his neighbor with his sissy boy army wearing masks and no insignia. That is not strength. That is faggotry.

Impeach and convict the House can do. It stops at the Senate but when we win the Senate in January it can go back to the Senate and maybe good by to jackass King Obama.

Well, it’s a start. I agree with you. He wants the old Soviet Union back. It’s as obvious as the splotch on the top of Gorbachev’s head.

We have seniority. I think Russians came around 1784

Quick question for you: How many votes does it take for the Senate to convict an impeachment?

Let's hope we don't have too much "flexibility."
