I think this is a big case of the pot calling the kettle black but this rhetoric may help him get the presidency he seeks


Putin Ratchets Up Anti-U.S Rhetoric as Russia

Thoughts?

He doesn't trust Barack Obama. Neither do millions of Americans. The nice thing is that neither will have to worry about it anymore beyond November.

I was fully expecting this argument from the typical "conservative"... an illustration of... these millions of Americans sharing an opinion, with someone like Putin, of the President of the USA. That is why they are "Real, Patriotic Americans".

Putin shares our opinion of Obama....not the other way around. Attempting to blame me for Putin agreeing with the American electorate is a weak and puny response on your part.

In a sense Putin is really not far off. We look that way to many smaller nations and we don't really discourage it if they do act like vassels. Boot licking and a$$ kissing aren't bad as long as you're not doing them.

Always funny to watch American Conservatives agreeing with the words of a KGB agent. Fools are born every minute and Putin knows it and knows how to manipulate them, jeeeeez

Putin is already in control of Russia, the presidency is symbolic. It just makes things less messy if he wins without having to use a puppet, rig results and so forth because then he has to kill reporters....errrrr I mean they committed suicide.

Doesn't surprise me. In fact, THAT was my point... pretty much like Muslims sharing an opinion of Jews with Nazis in the 1930-40a.
