If USA didn't overthrow the legal Ukrainian president then Putin wouldn't do a move towards Ukraine.
So, please stop your hysteria here.

A) USA isn't fighting Russia 1 on 1
B) If a World War erupts, USA will be sure to join at the end when it's already over

that may be true, but if we are forced into a war, we cant afford to be divided about the effort. we have to put our best foot forward and let the military do their jobs the way they were trained to do them.

Putin is moving on the Ukraine. As I predicted. Obama Does his best being well-spoken and clean. As I predicted.

Putin now gives Obama a hearty FU.

Obama only worried about AGW.

We are seeing the start of a new cold war as Putin seeks to gain a Russian empire.
Why do you think the conservative mindset is so deeply rooted in fear of the unknown? I have never known a more fearful mindset than that belonging to the American conservative.

Don't be so smug saying you predicted something that anyone on the planet could have predicted. What would have been unpredictable would be if comrade obama had done something.

Bunker mentality! They've got an edge; God's on their side.

Crimea in 2014 = Sudetenland in 1938

Obama in 2014 = Chamberlain in 1938.

The world has the same "who cares about Ukraine" mentality that they had in 1938 when it was "who cares about Czechoslovakia?"

And Putin, like the leader of Germany in 1938, knows he can do whatever he wants and nobody will stop him, since the only real leaders in the whole world are in Russia, China, the Middle East and maybe Germany, and right now, Germany is doing their level best to win the European economy and will happily let Putin do whatever he pleases.

Obama didn't cause this, we did. The American people are in another Brave New World stage of comfortable apathy and don't want us involved in anything. They're getting their wish, and I think minus his goofy saber rattling speeches, Obama is doing what the majority wants, which is nothing but hollow speech making.

But the one consistent feature of history is its ability to repeat itself, and the Crimea-Ukraine = Sudetenland-Czechoslovakia thing is eery it's so similar.
