Leaving aside your asinine analysis about this somehow being the result of "Obama's Apology Tour" your sabre rattling isn't going to impress anyone, least of all a KGB thug like Putin.
I love your Shelbyville approach to Putin's aggression:
Shake harder boy!
We can "tell Putin to stay out of Venezuela etc., etc..." like we did with Andropov, Brezhnev, Khrushchev, and Stalin but they didn't care so what makes you think he cares? What's our impetus, military response? Idiotic. Rather, draw him in and force him to expend resources that we have in piles compared to him. He won't be spending much time on this side of the globe.
An aircraft carrier in the Mediterranean? War games? Why not just put on a gorilla costume and beat our chests?
(You know, P*B, they have little blue pills to fix the problem you're apparently having...)
The Iran solution is a multilateral success. Heard much about the "Iran Bomb" lately? If there was real concern, don't you think Israel would be screaming bloody murder right now? If anybody has tabs on the Iranian nuclear program, its Mossad and they're allowing the process to work. Failure on your part.
Selling helicopters to the same Egyptians who just sentenced over 500 political opponents to death? HELL and NO. Failure again on your part.
Oh, and unilaterally piss off the Chinese to show 'em who's boss. Good Heavens please tell me you were drinking. Continued failure on your part.
Your response reads like the impetuous, emotional response of an angry adolescent or a cranky old senior citizen with one foot in the grave. In my experience in retail, sadly, they tend to be one in the same.
Geez, someone with common sense who obviously knows history and keeps up on current events. Do you think anyone's actually going to listen to you?
