President Obama meets with King Abdullah,

     This week President Obama met with King Abdullah in Saudi Arabia to discuss the threat of Iran. The King believes we are not doing enough to settle the issue of a nuclear Iran. While I agree, Saudi Arabia is a regional power and share holder of the US economy and not in a good way. If they feel threatened by Iran then they should take care of the situation however they need to. It is not our responsibility to protect their oil from foreign threat while they raise prices on the US.

     Now I do support stopping a nuclear armed Iran, I do so for different reasons that the security of Saudi wealth. I support intervention to make the world a safer place from nuclear threats from barbaric regimes.

Why Are We Still "Talking" About Ukraine.

     President Obama and President Putin via phone calls discussed de-escalation of the crisis in Ukraine this week. While President Putin supposedly seemed pro diplomacy all of a sudden, it has become obvious to me that President Putin is aware that the United States in recent years immediately de-escalates it's own threats as soon as diplomacy is on the table. He is using this trend to de-escalate us, not the conflict in Ukraine. He's had a 24 year political career and an extensive background in subversive tactics with the KGB, the man knows how to play people and is currently playing President Obama.

     Then the two Presidents sent their diplomatic lackeys, Secretary Kerry and Secretary Lavrov respectively to continue the de-escalation talks, Meanwhile the news eats that up and claims progress in the situation. But has there been progress? There are still Russian troops in Crimea, Russia is still legislatively annexing Crimea and they are still massing forces on the border of Ukraine. Done believe this is progress people, It's far from it.

Attempted Succesion.

     Alaska has proposed their own succession, and to Russia of all places. Has the peoples approval of government dropped so low as to cause people to support such outrageous solutions? But clearly it's the fault of congress, both parties and the POTUS. Our elected officials need to step their game up soon so that the people may have faith and confidence in the State again.

Russia Kicked out of G8.

     Today President Obama and several other nations voted to ban Russia from the G8. Another cowardly move that the Russians aren't even concerned with. Is is ever a good idea to ban someone from the discussion table and still expect peace?

     The symbolic actions are non-issues to the Russian state. We need to strike fast and hard or stop pretending to be democracy's protector. Russian aggression will continue until the US or maybe even a regional power confronts Russia and brings the perpatrators of these crimes to justice.

President Obama and Iran Negotiations

     Today the senate has pressed President Obama on continuing negotiations regarding Iran's nuclear ambitions. But to be honest it's our job to pressure the POTUS to defend our security, but kudos to our senate on this regard.

     The solution is simple. Iran should dismantle their nuclear reactors within a set time voted on by our congress, not by executive order. Id they have failed to do so tactical bombing of their nuclear sites is the only choice we are left with.

     The issue comes down to the safety of our kids, and the rest of our family's or a damaged reputation in the eyes of radical Muslims. I will choose American family s every time. It's time for Iran to choose and our President to enforce. Unfortunately there is no evidence that would suggest that our President has the courage to stand of for America, the world, or your family's. and speaking of family's look what the social justice candidate has done to your family businesses.

Democrats Hurting In Midterms

     Every once in awhile President Obama says something i agree with. In the below article he stated that the democrats midterm failures are because of the toxic environment in Washington. Now the part I agree with is just the phrase toxic environment in Washington. The republicans are doing just fine in the midterms and are expected to take the senate.

     My last statement should not be mistaken for one sided attack, the republicans share responsibility for this "toxic environment" as well. But it is purely President Obama and the elected democrats fault that they wont't be getting decent midterms results. But should they even be concerned about the midterms? Id rather my public servants be concerned with the national debt or correcting/repealing the Affordable Health Care Act.

Obama decides against a military response to Russia

     President Obama has decided against the use if military action in Russia and instead opted for sanctions on 20 top Russian officials. He has claimed Presidents Putins annexation of Crimea is weakness and not strength. But who's really the weak one here? You should already know, with another foreign policy bluff President Obama has embarrassed us yet again.

     Now I mentioned before that I do not support sanctions in this case because President Putin only respects strength and I still stand by that. This annexation is comparable to Hitler and Poland while Europe just stood by. We cannot afford to let an imperialist empire rise. I am condoning war with Russia and total victory in mind. It's time for President Obama to show the world that we are not weak and we will defend freedom against whoever opposes it worldwide.

Crimea Votes To Join Russia

      Ukraine has voted, and if it is legitimate we must back down and allow its decision to be implemented.
President Obama claims the vote is illegitimate and Secretary Kerry has begun an apologetic rant toward President Putin saying sanctions in Russia are not a "threat" or meant in a "personal way". Between Kerry and Obama we are being made to be a laughable nation as the world loses respect for our statements.

      If the vote is found to be illegitimate then an invasion into Ukraine must commence to enforce proper elections. President Putin is not bluffing and neither should we be.

President Obama's Foreign policy still ineffective

     According to the article linked below Russian forces continue to transport troops and other resources for war into Ukrainian territory. A tweet from the Department of State reads "After more than three hours, @JohnKerry and #Russia's FM Lavrov continue talks on de-escalating tensions in Ukraine."

     Its painfully obvious that President Putin does not respect President Obama or Secretary Kerry. These deescalation talks have been going on since the crisis began to no avail. Roosevelt once said "speak softly and carry a big stick" and that is exactly what must be done.

     The diplomatic talks should continue, while we sent protection forces into Ukraine to provide for the security of Sundays vote. We cannot allow the Russians to ignore us and we damn sure cannot bluff. As this Friday begins i look forward to the resolution on this crisis hopefully on Sunday.
