A “Regional Power” with the world’s largest Nuclear weapons arsenal.
He’s trying to insult Putin.
But Putin knows that he is playing the better hand right now, and likely won’t ever have a better one.
And the strong nations cower and bow to other leaders? Wear Mom pants riding a sissy bike, lift your leg to cover your nuts when a martial arts demo is going on in front of you? lol
If he isn’t trying to start World War III, then why is he trying to insult Russia? This is pointless bluster, aimed at what? Is he trying to make Putin think he has to demonstrate Russia’s strength by causing more trouble? I don’t see the logic in this at all.
I tell ya, IF history deemed that Americans have to elect a fag to the White Hut, I wish we had elected a pitcher like Rock Hudson instead of a receiver like Liberace!
Obama opens his mouth and once again proves that he is an idiot.
For a long time nobama’s problem has been that he believes his own bullshit.
The Russian bear ain’t to be trifled with. Them claws is sharp.
Zero stopped caring about being President 2 years ago. It’s all just a hassle for him now.
By who? Certainly not AQ, right? Since we defeated them a few years ago, right?
Yep, Barry, and that's why they keep hitting you in the face with the dodgeball just to see you run to the teacher about the big bad bully
Russia is a global superpower, not a regional power.
Someone is feeding BS to the BS master.
What a total jerk he is.
At least we now know what Obama’s foreign policy is: If a ‘’regional power’’ like Russia takes over another country in its own region like Crimea, the Obama administration will dismiss it as irrelevant since it doesn’t ‘’pose a leading security threat to the United States.’’
Okay, Xi Jinping of China, you can now take over any country in your region, just like Vladimir Putin can take over any country in Russia’s region, and you won’t hear a peep out of the United States president except maybe to call you weak. And Kim Jung Un, what are you waiting for? North Korea is a regional power, so you’re now allowed to drop one of your nuclear warheads on Japan since it’s part of your region. Isn’t this fun?
“I continue to be much more concerned when it comes to our security with the prospect of a nuclear weapon going off in Manhattan.”
Somebody tell him that the Russians have nuclear weapons that could go off in Manhattan, DC, Chicago, California and Hawaii.
In 1960, Nikita Krushchev said “We will destroy America”, then sent a Kenyan communist agent to Hawaii to meet a meet a female leftist named Stanley.
The rest is unfortunate history...

The Russians do not know(?) that their export, without the raw materials, is only in the order of $50 billion !
Yes, Russia is a "regional" power with nuclear missiles capable of reaching any target on American soil...
Can our country survive the next 2 yrs under this regime? And can it then be brought back to its former greatness? I dunno.
