"It is rather curious, given the American conservative movement’s long and dramatic history of anti-Communism and anti-Russian saber-rattling, that many leading voices on the right are speaking about Russian President Vladimir Putin with varying degrees of admiration.
For some, it is just a matter of comparing Putin’s toughness with President Obama’s alleged weakness. Without suggesting any love for Putin, Republicans in Congress have asserted that Russia’s incursion into Ukraine would not have happened had Obama not been such a wimp in his dealings with Moscow.
This line has been pushed especially hard by the foreign policy Tweedledee and Tweedledum of the Senate GOP caucus, John McCain and Lindsey Graham. Florida Sen. Marco Rubio echoed that sentiment at the CPAC conference in Washington on Thursday."...

What RT America is doing is aiming at a lot of Millennials: the Paulistas, the OWS types and the anarchists who try to disrupt things like the WTC conferences. They're basically trying to propagandize them to feel that America doesn't have their interests at heart both that Papa Putin and Mother Russia love them.

Well, once you're stoned and freshly laid, who cares about the rest?
See what I'm sayin'?

Unless I missed something, Putin didn't overthrow Yanukovych. Yanukovych bailed.

Actually, I think Dondilion's claim is that Obama overthrew Yanukovych.

That's even more implausible.

We need to be more intimidating IMO.
I'm not blaming the president for all of this, but he must learn from it.
Speak softly, but carry a big stick.
