Putin becomes the Voice of Reason

Russia sharply steps up criticism of U.S. over Syria - The Washington Post

MOSCOW – Russia dramatically escalated its denunciations of American threats to attack Syrian military targets on Saturday, as President Vladimir Putin called the arguments about chemical weapons that underlie the U.S. case “utter nonsense.”

The Foreign Ministry said a U.S. attack would be a “gross violation” of international law.

Speaking out for the first time since an alleged chemical weapons attack near Damascus on Aug. 21, Putin called on President Obama to find a nonviolent way out of the crisis.

“I would like to address Obama as a Nobel Peace Prize laureate: Before using force in Syria, it would be good to think about future casualties,” Putin told Russian news agencies in Vladivostok during a tour of the country’s flood-stricken Far East.

“Russia is urging you to think twice before making a decision on an operation in Syria,” he said.

Next week’s Group of 20 economic summit in St. Petersburg would be a good forum for discussing the Syrian issue, he said, “so why not take advantage of it?”

One might hate obama but still not make oneself an object of ridicule for admiring putin ( which is an extension of obama anyway)

 

[MACAULAY]

Obama is lost...he can't blame Bush.

This box is of his own making...like Obamacare.

The deadly combination of arrogance and incompetence is starting to assert itself.

I was telling my wife the other day that it makes me ill to agree with a Russian president over our own.

Ex-KGB agent Putin. Hero of the Right.

Ex-KGB agent Putin. Hero of the Right.

It isn't that we think of him as a hero. We DO see his as a leader and wish our president had some leadership qualities. Obama isn't even leading from behind anymore. His impotence has precluded any decisiveness and rendered the citizens of America, vulnerable because of it.

Oh, pleeeeease.

He is NOT a leader.

He is a dictator-wanna-be.

As is obama.

Both are just not up for the job.

Putin is using the moment and from the standpoint of his benefits - he should.

Our idiot desperately needs a war to divert the attention from his internal failures and abuses. But the opposition to this war is so wide that he is not brave enough to jump into it without hesitation.

All of this does not make putin any more better than obama is.

Leadership as in the context of power, authority and ability to control!

 

[JakeStarkey]

And we see the former commie hating reactionaries praising the former KGB boss, Putin.



This will come back to bite reactionary butt in the primaries.

 

[Sunni Man]

Putin can be admired because he is a decisive leader and and seasoned politician; who puts Russia and it's citizens first when dealing with other leaders on global issues.

Obama has been on the job for 5 yrs. and still acts like a president in training. ..

 

[Katzndogz]

It does make what Putin said absolutely correct. obama never thinks ahead and never considers future actions that others might take. The FBI does because they are already looking at the Syrians in the US. Is a US attack on Syria a violation of International Law? SURE it is.

What obama is doing is having a temper tantrum. He said something unthinking and stupid, now his pride is hurt and he's lashing out. Britian hurt his feelings so he lashes out at Cameron. He's like an orangutang lobbing feces in fury, except obama has missiles to throw instead.

By dithering and saying he hasn't made up his mind, obama is straying into Kim Jong Un category. He's making things even worse. He's doing just what North Korea does when it wants attention, move around a bunch of material, make it look like a big build up, make demands, then abandon it. obama has made things so bad, that there is nothing he can do to keep his, and the nation's, dignity intact.

Sunni Man and Katzndogz admit that they admire the former KGB chief of communist Russia.

 

[Katzndogz]

Taken in context, I admire Putin more than obama. Putin is a leader, obama is a two year old not getting his binky on time.

What Putin said makes sense.

That does not mean that they admire him. They agree with whatt he said.

Dude, you need to make logical connections, not vapid connections.

It making me ill to agree with him hardly makes him a hero of mine.

Smilebong, words have meanings, and you don't get to redefine them. The vapid connections is your redefinitions.

The logical connection is that the far reactionary right is trying to tear down a man they hate at a critical time in our foreign policy with the ME, so these folks (who have accused BHO of being a commie) are now cosying up with the commies.

Those are your words.

Neither of the posters you mentioned admire Putin.

They agree with his assessment of the current situation.

You conclude that they are cosying up with communists, whatever that means. It is a vapid, empty, senseless, connection. You make no sense.
