Actually if you really want to talk about Ron and Maggie and the cold war, it wasn't so much about actual war, but letting the opponent know you could handle war if you had to and offering him a credible superior threat to deal with. That worked.

The Neville Obama technique of cutting back the military and scrambling out from the shadows only long enough to shine your opponents shoes does not work.

What he said!

Did Ron and Maggie stop Hungary or Czechoslovakia? Was the US/NATO stance in the 50's and 60's just too pussified?

The Russians aren't Argentina - they would have handed Maggie's ass to her. Raygun was able to outspend the Russians because the US was so much richer until the USSR just ran out of money. That's not true today. Good luck pouring billions/trillions more into your military. The Chinese might just call your loans, then what will you do?

U.S. trade representative spokesman: "We have suspended upcoming bilateral trade and investment engagement with" Russia's government.

Boom! America fires back. Crippling Russia's chances to meet about investment and bilateral trade. Putin is sure to feel this....


Now, in all seriousness, the West is going to have to take it. The US has the wrong leader for this type of crisis, and nobody else has the intestinal fortitude to take Putin on. Say hello to the USSR lite.

Now, if Mitt were in power ...

Putin and Mitt could POSE TOGETHER!!

TWO great action figures!

TWO great pose-able leaders!!

Oh really? Russia's stock market lost $60bn in one day and the Ruble is seriously butthurt after today. And it's only Monday. Will it sway Putin? Unlikely, but Russia's oligarchs might make some noise if their bank accounts get frozen.

And compared to some of the waffling by some of the EU members, Obama's response has been strong and consistent. Maybe wait to see the West's response if and when bullets start flying to pass judgement....

The power in Kyiv belongs to Neo-Nazi fascists, it's sad because so many Ukrains fought the brown plague (fascism) during WWII...

Alex Jones. There's a rational source.

Infowars? RT?
