Why is it that Putin sounds more like a real leader who is using his brain than a knee-jerk reactionary who funds his own enemies? Huh?
In this press conference, Putin speaks simple truths that amount to valuable wisdom. Wisdom that is being ignored. He made a particular point of addressing Obama specifically as a "Nobel Peace Prize Winner."

Because he has brains and balls. Here is how someone explained it to me earlier today:
"Putin ran the KGB Obama ran to chuckey cheese,, so who has the nerve and the smarts to know whats going on.. Im with Putin." and "Putin Is trying to bring Russian out of communism and is a Christian, anti Muslim, Obama is pushing America into communism and is anti Christian and a Muslim.. Total Oppisites except Putin has Big Balls"

The US are moving their Aircraft carriers colser to Syria right now.
Obama have no plans to back out.
The US are more concerned about their reputation than escalating the conflict into a much bigger war.

Because the sheeple only heard the word free. All the free stuff they were going to get. They really don't care who is president, they just want the handouts and free healthcare. And not one had the thoughts "nothing in life is truly free" and "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is". And they still don't care (or know) what's going on around them. They will support anything and anyone who is putting free stuff in their hands.

No, actually, make that
No matter how skeptical the untrusting American is of Putin, you can't fault the guy for speaking truth. Too bad no one's listening.edit on Sun Sep 1st 2013 by TrueAmerican because: (no reason given)

I wish Putin was the POTUS. Really. This guy is strong ... he is smart ... he understands international politics ... he understands economics ... he doesn't blink. This man is a leader. I disagree with what he stands for, but I'd really rather have someone like this than a community organizer who doesn't know what the heck he's doing.
