Breaking: OBAMA DRAWS LINE IN THE SAND. SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES TO FOLLOW

Less flippantly, I can say that is one thing that annoys me about Obama: the proverb of his ancestors is to speak softly and carry a big stick. Big scary pronouncements with little consequence or follow-through has always been his biggest weakness as a person.

     Yeah, there is really nothing good that can come out of this sort of bold posturing. He's a lame duck with the opportunity to humiliate himself on the way out. He could also get us all killed, but I know he's smarter than that.

there is always this thinking, we should not provoke russia....do you think russia cares it it provokes the US on a daily basis?

     It's to Putin's benefit to act in an ostentatious fashion. I'm not sure what we get out of the posturing. Most other world leaders could be cowed into backing down and I could understand that being the goal, but I don't exactly see it happening in Russia's case.
