WASHINGTON The already fragmented battlefield in Syria grew even more complicated on Friday, as Russia and Iran expanded their military efforts to defend the beleaguered Syrian government in defiance of President Obama, who predicted that their actions would lead only to a quagmire.
In his first comments since Russia began airstrikes on Syrian targets this week, Mr. Obama said that Moscow was acting not out of strength but out of weakness.

Obama, please, just shut your yap and spend your time catching up on what is going on in the world.
It is obvious that the rest of the world doesn’t really care about homosexuals and equal opportunity in our military.
They care about winning.
There’s a lesson there for you.

I watched him in the press conference yesterday and when he made the statement after the Oregon shootings and he looks like he’s getting crazier. He’s a sick one.

Obama fails, helps the Republican Candidate.
As they say, Democrats could run Miley Cyrus and she’d get votes, if only it were like 1980.
To: Berlin_Freeper
A “five-year-old’s” response. What a joke, this “president.” A bigger joke, the people that voted for this mess.

That wouldn’t be the Sov, er, Russians doing worse, now would it?
It would be another screw up to lay at the feet of the Obama Regime, the State Department, and the morons who voted for Obama.

Blind, Deaf, and dumb (especially dumb).
That is the Current Regime now squatting in the White, er “Rainbow” Hut in the center for the Elites now in charge of that territory once known as “the United States of America”.
Give the Iranians access to $150 billion, and expect them to NOT cause mischief?
The Iranians will do a LOT of damage long before they actually develop any kind of nuclear weapons.

Russia is acting on obama’s weakness. They have no respect for this ass-clown. I bet the Russians feel very optimistic knowing that this fool thinks they will fail. He's only batting 0 for 1000. He's been right 0% of the time.

Obama Sees Russia Failing in Syria Effort Then they shall likely succeed beyond their wildest dreams. The one thing that has been consistent for the last 7 years is that stupid, lazy, ignorant, petulant Obama is wrong about everything.

Russia sees Obama failing as the American President Russia can see an incompetent fool from their back porch.
