    Bothers me as much as it bothered the Democrats when they bitched at Bush doing it. Bush went ahead and quit playing golf while he was president due to the flak.

    LOL. Remember when Bush used to go to his ranch and the Dems bitched about him constantly taking vacations?

    On a side note.. I don't care if the Pres plays golf. Frankly, it's better then him making policies. That being said.. if you combine his campaign time with his golf time... and subtract it from how long he has been president.. He has been president for only like 2 years.

    Are you saying Dems did NOT bitch about Bush "vacationing" and playing golf?


    As for my "Bias" if you didn't know, I hate most politicians. So if hating pretty much all politicians is biased.. you got me.

This conflict might not be over. Things to watch for that will happen simultaneously, not sequentially...Belarusian and Polish troop movements should counter each other. Additional US fleet movements into/near the Black Sea. Statements from India in support of Russia. ANY change from typical Chinese neutrality. Minor clashes near the Bosporus. Impromptu anti-Russia announcements from the Arctic Council. Huge dives in Russian stock (more than we have already seen). And the worst signifiers will be corporate. Largely they are happening right now. The gas companies are canceling meetings with American investors etc, making public statements in support of Russia etc...

    so the 22nd will be popcorn time
    I'm thinking we'll see the BRIC's stick together so I'm not expecting Chinese neutrality. India is on the horns of a dilemma though. I can't believe they are more comfortable throwing in with China and Russia against the USA. Brazil seems to be supporting Russia so far. That's not too surprising. They don't seem all that attached to us.

    This is a weird thing people say. Since you offered: yes, that is the dictionary definition of biased.

    Wrong again, Terry. In the President's visit to Brazil he visited the famous Huggy Jesus statue, which with him being a Muslim is obviously a huge affront.
    Hasta pronto, porque la vida no termina aqui...
    America, stop pushing. I know what I'm doing.

    Ze new Comical Ali, comrades. This guy should get a job at Fox.

    Moscow (AFP) - A leading anchor on Russian state television on Sunday described Russia as the only country capable of turning the United States into "radioactive ash", in an incendiary comment at the height of tensions over the Crimea referendum.

    Kiselyov made the comment to support his argument that the United States and President Barack Obama were living in fear of Russia led by President Vladimir Putin amid the Ukraine crisis.

    ...

    He stood in his studio in front of a gigantic image of a mushroom cloud produced after a nuclear attack, with the words "into radioactive ash".

    "Americans themselves consider Putin to be a stronger leader than Obama," he added, pointing to opinion polls which then popped up on the screen.

    "Why is Obama phoning Putin all the time and talking to him for hours on end?" he asked.

    Kiselyov has earned a reputation as one of Russia's most provocative television news hosts, in particularly with his often blatantly homophobic remarks.

    But he is also hugely influential with his weekly news show broadcast at Sunday evening prime time.

    Putin last year appointed Kiselyov head of the new Russia Today news agency that is to replace the soon to be liquidated RIA Novosti news agency with the aim of better promoting Russia's official position.
