As someone once said, the US doesn't have a liberal party: it has a conservative party, and a reactionary party.

lol...and those pesky sanctions did so much, eh? The Crimean people have, majority-wise, wanted either more autonomy or a return to Russia since 2008. Any Sanctions applied as a result did more harm to the European Union relying on food exports to drive their own economic recovery. Sanctions to Russia's oil actually helped them out at the time.

Liar. The UN General Assembly condemned it. The Security Council would have as well but Russia vetoed it - big surprise. Dozens of countries, including the US, imposed sanctions against Russia over it. That referendum was as farcical as any Russian 'election,' and for the same reason.Of course, that was back when the US administration wasn't just rubber-stamping Russian adventurism in eastern Europe.Boring troll is boring, and egregiously stupid. Bye, sugar-tits.

And then ask your doctor if medical advice from a television commercial is right for you.

He appears to just be floating the theory that it was in the best interest of the world for Russia to be strong and stable, and an ally, before it became unpopular. Ah, politics and their agendas. Heck, even Obama said something similar: "the notion that somehow not talking to countries is punishment to them β€” which has been the guiding diplomatic principle of this administration β€” is ridiculous." (see any similarities yet with Russia?)

lol...just Clinton telling us what we all know...that "a strong Russia" is a good thing and in the best interest of the world. Strange how apparently that is no longer the thought process? We're supposed to now follow the mantra that Russia is now our enemy again.

They pretty much did. We did nothing to stop them. Nor did the UN. Why? Because Crimea chose, by referendum, to go back to Russia because they did not feel the Ukraine was representing their interests.

I'd guess none. That would explain Donnie's posture.

But imagine if they had Amerikkka's approval for stealing it.
