Just kidding! Ha, ha. President Obama did the Hans Blix routine from Team America (“…Or else we will be very, very angry with you; and we will write you a letter telling you how angry we are.”), and Putin said: “Crimea river.”
(Wow, too bad President Obama canceled the missile defense system in Poland in deference to Putin, or else maybe we could use it as a bargaining chip now. President Obama has continuously just given away every possible bargaining chip to Russia for nothing in return, and as a result, we have nothing to negotiate with anymore, except maybe the G8 summit. {Oh, America might not show up? Oh, the humanity. Millions of Russians will suffer and they will come begging us on their knees to have mercy on them if we boycott the G8. Yeah, right. [Maybe if President Obama had gone to the Olympics he could have been there to talk with Putin about Ukraine while it was happening, but Obama had to protest the Russian anti-gay law, when Obama himself opposed gay marriage even two years ago. I oppose the Russian anti-gay law too, but you can have a lot more influence if you show up to an event than if you stay home. Anyone ought to know that. Obama could have made it clear that he opposes the Russian law, but still gone to the Olympics in the hopes of friendly persuasion helping to convince Putin to reverse the law. You cannot use friendly persuasion when you refuse to show up.]})
