I knew Obama was incompetent but I didn't think even he could do it.

Putin would not have invaded Crimea so we would not need troops.
Do you really believe that? If so you are showing you have no knowledge of this atea and its history. Putin is well aware the US can do little here, but protest. The fact the region is overwhelmingly ethicnically Russian and they support him, gives him the ability to pull this off. Now if Ukraine was a member of NATO, it would be diferent. The main reason it is not is that Russia has military bases in Crimea. Now that is no longer an issue, it would be a good thing for it to join NATO to protect the other areas of its territory that are predominantly ethic Russian

He could have done what Carter did. Those who refuse to learn from history are doomed to repeat it which is why we have a new cold war.

Yes I really believe that and I also believe you don't have a clue about the US, Putin, Russia or the Ukraine.

Even Carter knew what the appropriate response should be. But not Obama.


Pat, back in the day we were spending some 4% of GDP on defense. Now we spend some 1% of GDP. Have you ever ask yourself where the rest of that money has gone? Where we are spending it?

We have a much larger percentage of our money going to taxes. The local, county and state's are shaking us down pretty good right now. And regardless of the phony statistics regarding cost of living, it is far more expensive to live these days than ever in the past. Maybe not for those of us who are in our twilight years but certainly for the younger adults.

We should start a thread about that. It would drive the liberals nuts. LOL

Agree, I have brought it up in the past, food costs alone have skyrocketed. Look at when we were young bucks, I can still remember budgeting $20 a week for groceries, and that was for the wife, the oldest child and me. The phone bill was about $5. I think it would make a great thread. We are being nickel and dime'd, no, Fifty dollar and hundred dollar bill to death.

You agree that taxes have gone up, not down. You know, the taxes which liberals say can not be cut for fear of killing off granny?


But back to the incompetence of Obama and why he has single-handedly rekindled the cold war. All the while the libs back him 100%. Apparently they think the cold war is a good thing.

Well duh, have you ever seen taxes go down overall? Maybe in Oklahoma, you don't have any tax knowledge.
