You really have no clue. Russia's Deputy PM publicly ridiculed Obama on twitter, TWICE, and deservedly so. Putin didn't act so ridiculously incompetent as to draw such derision, so he justly garners more global respect than does Obama.
Nothing could be further from the truth. I strongly dislike Putin. That does not change the fact that he is FAR more capable and competent than Obama.
Why are you thinking in such puerile terms? Are you very young?
What qualities do you respect about Putin, his ability to silence the Russian Press, invasion of another country all the while telling the lie that there were no Russian troops in Crimea. Other than China and Syria no nation respects him.
If he was a great leader he would elevate Russia's standard of living rather than trying to redesign it's borders. Regardless of the outcome in Crimea when all is said and done Russia will still be a 3rd world country economically and Putin will be a loser attempting to once again build up a military that they cannot afford.
P.S. I liked this comment :
"Thank you so much for putting something out there other then the propaganda that I am currently having to endure. Even as a novice. The story in Ukraine does not add up. Everytime it is reported facts have been edited out of the timeline of this crisis. A coup created government is legitimate but a longstanding autonomous crimean government and vote is not. This conflict is proof people are sheeps. It doesn’t even sound like the truth but everyone’s nodding their heads and calling it democracy."

So why were the Russian troops in Crimea during the vote, you seem to have left that fact out.
I don't recall any troops in the Ukraine when they had the coup.

I think if there were not any russian troops in Crimea then ukrainian neo-nazi commandos from the Right Sector and those thugs from the Svoboda party wouldn't allowed this referendum happen at all. Russia acted as a shield from any provocations.
American conservatives have come a long way since the days of Ronald Reagan.
They've gone from cold war warriors to Putin lapdogs
Seems most anything anti-Obama is embraced - even when it's pro-Putin.

Anyone find it strange that many American conservatives are expressing approval of Russia?
