I doubt they'll even give them up.

Obama was completely outplayed.

I do believe in a couple of weeks you will see it differently. Meanwhile , read the Economist on the scenario. Not saying he played it as well as he might have- but Putin has been outmaneuvered.

You fellows read too much of the NEWSMAX style blogs.

One false move, fellows, and the ,errrr, PRESIDENT gets it...:p

I was listening to NPR... the President's mouthpiece. They're all saying the same thing... he handled this awful.

In a few weeks maybe this will all die out and people will forget all about it... that's what you're hoping for. I know he is.

You got that right, anyone who thinks foreign politicians are less sleazy than are own are nothing short of naïve.

There is an important distinction which very much changes the calibre of politician. Private banks. Where their influence is greatest the quality of politicians and professionals in general will be less. Anyone who thinks all politicians are globally the same are probably drug users.

No war- Iran is the target.

Yes of course Iran but any and all other countries who do not KISS the **** of the BIS. Economics is war and the dollar has been a weapon of mass destruction ten thousand times more destructive than any exploding metal armaments. This war against the free people of the world has not stopped for one second in all my lifetime so your "no war" theory was already dead before you offered it. The bankers and the captured west either prevail or they cease to exist in very short order. It looks bad for them and thats good, they are way behind schedual I gather, all of their hidey holes are not completed yet, they will tear each other to shreds for front seats, I hope.

From Russia With Love- A Letter From Putin to All Americans




A letter from Russian President Vladimir Putin to the American people has been circulating around the internet for the past couple of days. In the letter, Putin re-introduces Americans to some unpleasant facts about history and life they’d rather forget, such as Nixon’s reasoning behind massive carpet bombing of millions or North Vietnamese for the purpose of ‘looking good’ while exiting the war, and how Pakistan has been using the U.S. as a ‘false ally’ to gain foreign aid, while using the funds to embolden the Taliban in Afghanistan. He calls out Barrack Hussein Obama for having the audacity to meet with gay rights activists while he is in Russia next week, a group Putin despises, while refusing to carve away time to meet with him and solve the Syria issue. He compares the action to the equivalent of him (Putin) coming to the U.S. and meeting with Obama’s domestic enemy, the N.R.A.

Syria Crisis: Vladimir Putin's Letter To America

If Putin ran against Obama for President, I’d vote for Putin in a heartbeat.

Here is the letter:
Here is the official Putin fansite!

So why is that a bad path for America? Was Sweden doomed after the Great Northern War- or just SMARTER as a nation?
Are the Japanese worse off than they were in1938?:lol:

The internal dynamics of 18th century Sweden and 21st century America are pretty different. Sweden had social cohesion to cushion the economic loss coming from the end of empire.

America may not be able to cushion the blow of economic loss because social cohesion is not possible in a tribal society like the USA. It's been posited that the American model must continue to expand or it will collapse.

I recommend in this context you check out:

The Putin fan Klub may wan to check his 'Chechnya record'. Obama handled it 'clumsily'OK. but it didn't 'blip' his popularity.http://www.forbes.com/sites/kenrapoza/2012/11/01/the-economist-endorses-obama-for-president/

Who said I was a fan of Putin?

Just because he out foxed Obama does not make me a fan.

Add Georgia to that list.

So? Vlad Putin has out charmed a lot of people in his wonderful career as 'Czar'. Then mostly - outraged them.

Smack., the Gallup polls show that most Americans feel their POTUS had an 'outburst from the Heart'. NOw Assad and his Patron are suddenly 'co-operating' with the UN.
