My Lord please drop a meteorites on Putin’s head. That is my plea even though God is not likely to take sides. However Putin as the leader of Russia bodes badly for us and freedom in general. The Left may be just having fun accusing the right of loving Putin or at least I hope that is the case, if not I worry about the ability of our people on the left to accurately perceive reality. I don’t think that there are any Americans who love Putin except for the possibility of some disenchanted white racist that may see Putin as some kind of Caucasian savior of the white race, but I doubt that number of people would be very significant. If Putin is as smart as I think he he , he will to take advantage of the disenchantment of those people. As the Viet Cong proved during the Vietnam war it is always advantageous to have American allies when in conflict with the US.
I think what the liberals see as love for Putin is fact objectivity on the part of the conservatives. If one compares Obama to Putin, Obama comes up short. As I have said before Obama is out classed by Putin. Putin is smarter, stronger and more ruthless. I don’t think that Putin would risk hostilities with the US if he had any respect for Obama, but he doesn’t respect Obama. When Obama made an empty threat during the Syrian poison gas affair he lost respect for Obama. Our situation is also weaken by the actions of Bill Clinton when he was president. Last week, Putin called the West hypocrites when he referred to Bill Clinton’s war to liberate Kosovo from Serbia. He has a point. What is the difference between Kosovo and Crimea?
Just because we are disadvantaged does not mean that we should roll over and give in to Putin. Obama needs to take a lesson from Reagan and stand up to Putin. Now that the President has made his threat he has to carry through on it or Putin will respect him even less. And another thing we should do is provide military support to the Free Syrian Army in their fight against the radical Islamics and Syrian regime, a Russia ally. But our situation would be so much simpler if God would just drop a rook on Putin.
