Go ahead you commie-bastard Putin... cross that line again.








Russian economy hit by Ukraine turmoil

Russian markets have been rattled by the tensions with neighboring Ukraine, where Russia annexed the Black Sea region of Crimea last month. The main stock index tanked 10 percent in March, wiping out billions in market capitalization. In the first three months of 2014, the ruble lost 9 percent against the dollar, making imports more expensive, while spooked investors pulled about $70 billion out of the country — more than in all of 2013.

Our markets have had some losses too. In any event this is over except for obama's tantrum. Once the Ukranian police and military defected EU backed Kiev can pack their bags and leave.

You bet. The loss of southern and eastern Ukraines will be the fault of the American far right.

It's not over, Putin has to pay for Crimea.

The Ukraine is lost...


Pro-Russia separatists take armor, humiliating Ukraine forces



Ukrainian soldiers are deserting:

Six armored personnel carriers were driven into the rebel-held town of Slaviansk to waves and shouts of "Russia! Russia!". It was not immediately clear whether they had been captured by rebels or handed over to them by Ukrainian deserters.

Ukrainian paratroopers have no firing pins in their rifles:

Another 15 armored troop carriers full of paratroops were surrounded and halted by a pro-Russian crowd at a town near an airbase. They were allowed to retreat only after the soldiers handed the firing pins from their rifles to a rebel commander.

The Ukraine will go to Russia, it's only a matter of time. It will happen, and it will happen on Obama's watch.

And all Putin will get is a stern talking to...
