#1 About time someone called these bastids out. End this senseless Russia bashing. Putin is dangerous and unhinged enough. Poking him with a stick will only make him more paranoid and belligerent. Obama needs to fly over there and talk it out, SOB to SOB. THAT is his job !

#3 Obama is not done destroying out military yet.

#4 the Obama administration threatens war with Russia in an overt political move to enable Hillary’s election and stop Trump.

The good thing is that Obama talks a lot and does little. There have been many lines in the sand.

God, why am I so conflicted? I love my country but fear this government.

#5 JQC, ditto.

This regime has ruined my mood and my sleep for the best part of 8 years.

The one hope I've hung on to is that Obola is so lazy that he won't totally screw the pooch. His talk loudly and carry a twig approach to Putin is insane beyond belief.

My fear about Hillary is that she will follow the worst of the left radicals and actually get; the shooting started.

Same here, and I was just beginning to recover from the previous Clinton regime.

#7 There is a post about the Opioid Epidemic out in the hustings on Page the Four. Coincidence? Need for sleep? You be the judge.

#8 The creepy part is, the guy who was given a Nobel Peace prize for no good reason at all starting the nuclear war that destroys humankind? That's exactly how irony works...

#9 Obumble and Queen McKacklepants are just incompetent enough to blunder us into a nuclear war.

#10 Darth, you're correct about the incompetence but I think Obumble is too lazy to actually do it; McKanklepants OTOH would do it to prove she's the strong horse.

#11 It is in their playbook, as are the other smear, fear and jear tactics. Their programming is a very effective campaign for keeping their base in Zombie mode. Clueless, corrupt, compliant. Repubs are disappointing in that they have zero for countering the ploys. The attacks come, they run for shelter, save me!

#12 Heck of a "squirrel" ya' got there Barry. It'd be a shame if something happened to it.

#13 Wizski, I'm afraid that all too many of the pubs are right in there with the Demos. They are all part and parcel of the greater beltway Corruptocrats. They want the status quo to remain cause it is their means to power and wealth.

See Paul Ryan and his wife for an example.

#14 This is old news.

I called this ploy out last week on here.

Don't I get credit for putting the pieces together before anyone else???

#15 What could go wrong? (do I need to put a /sarc on that?)

#17 Frank,

I'd rather get a free pass on non-PC over the top speculation and a get out of jail free card so I can get banned...

My take on all of this is that for all of the happy faces and front loaded slanted polls the Dems are worried enough to wag the dog to get Shillary elected...can you imagine risking nuclear war to win an election???
