“I can see Russia from my house”
It looks like the Russians own the Crimea now, according to the New York Times. Who could have predicted it? Well, Sarah Palin for one. From CNN;
In 2008, when she was the GOP vice presidential nominee, Palin questioned in a speech whether then-Sen. Barack Obama would have the foreign policy credentials to handle a scenario in which Russian President Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine.
“After the Russian army invaded the nation of Georgia, Senator Obama’s reaction was one of indecision and moral equivalence – the kind of response that would only encourage Russia’s Putin to invade Ukraine next,” she said in Reno, Nevada on October 21, 2008.
The former Alaska governor was happy to highlight her prediction on Friday and scold those who criticized her 2008 comments.
So, I’m just wondering, if Sarah Palin was too stupid to be Vice President, what does that say about the Obama/Bite Me ticket?

I may have to get out the binoculars soon but any closer and heck we may as well call Alaska, Russia.
Just checking to see how this reply to an individual works. Thanks.
And…I love it!!! Great Idea Jonn. Thanks again so very much.
Me too …
errr~~~ is there any way to get a “preview” button or “edit” button installed for comments?
–ghp
Both president Putin and president Pudding have all ready divyed up the Ukraine.
We are now in the execution phase.
Does this the better flexibility that Obama was talking about on the hot mic with Putin was his anal orifice?
Snowden…
Syria…
Ukraine…
Remember when that idiot Mitt Romney described Russia as our “greatest geopolitical foe”? And the big brains in the news media told us how that was the stupidest thing anyone has ever said, anywhere?
Good times.
Yeah, we were certainly lucky that the entitled class voted for Barrycade V 2.0, instead of Romney.
Great looking website, Jonn.
The more I think about it, the more I’m actually happy (yes, happy) that Obama was re-elected.
Why, you ask? Simple–this country NEEDS to see the pain Obama has inflicted, up close and personal, with no ability to pass off his incompetence to the GOP, Bush, or anyone else.
This is HIS mess, and he (and the Democrats) need to own it.
You’re correct, Sparky. However, who’s going to point out the incompetence? It certainly won’t be the LSM, or the alphabet networks.
Eventually, even his most vocal and dedicated Kool-Aid drinkers won’t be able to deny the warm runny shitpile Obama has created.
He’s lost the middle class, the “independent” voters, and he’s even losing his own side. Look to November to see how badly he’s lost the mushy middle that put him into office.
Obama better tread lightly, or he’s going to be infamous for the war HE starts.
Which one?
Dr. Strangelove’s war.
At this point, I’m wondering if there isn’t a single nation on the planet that isn’t laughing at Obama and Unka Joe Biteme. Oh well, Unka Joe can always go outside and fire his shotgun into the air. I’m sure that would scare Putin into backing off.
We have a lack of serious minded people in this country. The issues of the day are gay marriage, legal marijuana, and empowering everyone (of the correct demographic) to feel good about themselves while lacking any credible achievement. Tyrants acting out, cuts in defense, get a big yawn from too many people. I blame Oprah and the damn Hippies.
Putin’s a totalitarian asshole, but he is smart, likes his own country, and he has balls. Obama is a totalitarian asshole who only thinks he’s smart, dislikes his own country, and never had any balls, ever.
Hey, that’s my line! But well said, sir.
Well, it’s too late, guys. Putin is as near checkmate as you can get.

Wait for another ‘naughty, naughty’ speech from bodaprez that no one will listen to while he’s scanning the room like a CYLON.
No, cylons were decisive and results-oriented. Plus the female ones were hot.
None of the above can be said about the Glorious Leader or Moochelle.
Oh, Whitey, I said ‘LIKE a CYLON’. I didn’t say he was a CYLON.
Frankly, as dumb as he is and how much he follows the herd, I’d put him into some other catgeory like gnu or BORG.
Great, here comes the old Soviet Union, back with a vengeance. Only this time, nobody in DC has the stones to stand up to them.
Reagan:”Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall”.
Stinky Hunsecker:”I’ll have more flexibility after the election”.
And, from the same guy:”Governor Romney, I’m glad that you recognize that Al Qaida is a threat, because a few months ago when you were asked what’s the biggest geopolitical threat facing America, you said Russia, not Al Qaida; you said Russia, in the 1980s, they’re now calling to ask for their foreign policy back because, you know, the Cold War’s been over for 20 years.“. Sure doesn’t look like it now.
UpNorth. Most people missed the first part of the infamous Obama quote so I’ve added the actual exchange.
Putin: “Palin was right. I am going to annex the Ukraine. Any problem with that?”
Obama: Hold off. I’ll have more flexibility after the election.”
Lol, not many people knew that, AirCav.
Is it time to build a bomb shelter in the back yard?
Here’s a CBS article in which Palin twitted the twirps in tweets on Twitter:

Note that the ‘esteemed publication’ Foreign Policy snickered audibly when she made this prediction in 2008.
Sparks, we bought Alaska from Russia in 1867. It was called Seward’s Folly at the time.
Hey, does anyone know if the base at Adak is still in business? Or was that shut down by the Clintons, along with Glenview, et al.?
And this just in: http://news.msn.com/us/top-officials-at-white-house-meeting-on-ukraine
Basically, they’re trying to figure out what to do: something or nothing.
Sorry, I just laughed so hard I startled the cats.
Site looks nice, Jonn, but I do miss numbering the posts.
Maybe Putin is making sure Russia will maintain a military presence in the area by taking Crimea because Russia already maintains a base there. Looking at some info right now regards the economy but with the current unrest going on, that can go in the tank.
“If you like Crimea, you can keep it!” – President Obama to Ukraine
Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
