HINT: IT’S NOT “RUSSIAN AGGRESSION” IN UKRAINE

U.S. President Barack Obama told a Dutch crowd this week that Russian military action in Ukraine isn’t the “No. 1 national security” threat to the United States.

Umm … really?

No sh*t, Sherlock. Just ask T-Rav …

“They don’t pose the No. 1 national security threat to the United States,” Obama said of Russia’s reaction to a U.S.-led coup in Ukraine. “I continue to be much more concerned when it comes to our security with the prospect of a nuclear weapon going off in Manhattan – which is part of the reason why the United States, showing its continued international leadership, has organized a forum over the last several years that’s been able to help eliminate that threat in a consistent way.”

Wait … the threat of a nuclear attack on Manhattan has been eliminated?

And yet Obama still deems it the “No. 1 national security threat” to our nation?

How exactly does that work?

This website has consistently argued against American meddling in Ukraine.

“Policing the world (or attempting to) is one of the reasons current and future generations of American taxpayers are staring down a $17 trillion debt,” we wrote recently. “America must resist the urge to intervene militarily in the Ukraine. We cannot afford to get involved – but even if we could, there is simply no compelling national interest to justify such involvement.”

Obama’s statements in Holland would seem to concur – at least on that latter point. For example, he downplayed Russia as a “regional power that is threatening some of its immediate neighbors.”

Hmmmm … Russia is obviously a legitimate global power – one responding to American intervention in the sovereign affairs of one of its immediate neighbors. But either way, wouldn’t Obama’s characterization lend credence to a U.S. policy of non-interventionism (like the one outlined this week by former U.S. Rep. Ron Paul)?

Of course it would …

So why, then, are our country’s leaders contemplating multi-billion dollar bailouts of Ukraine? And ratcheting up the Cold War-era rhetoric against Russia?

It makes no sense …

You are stupid, fits. Just because two US diplomats had an intercepted phone call does not mean there was a “U.S.-led coup in Ukraine”. You keep repeating this nonsense. The US can not control events in Ukraine. The interim agreement involved many countries and the ouster was an internal affair. The Crimean takeover was interference of a foreign power Russia. Big difference. Show me any ligament press calling it a “U.S.-led coup in Ukraine”.

“U.S.-led coup in Ukraine”

“U.S.-led coup in Ukraine”

“U.S.-led coup in Ukraine”
Repeating it over and over does not make it true.

The insurgents in Ukraine were backed by the EU and the US State Department and NGOs beholden to the above organizations. It’s part of their on going F-Russia campaign.

I don’t know many “ligament” press outlets … however this Reuters article references the “$20 million a week” our intelligence assets were funneling into the effort … http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/02/06/us-ukraine-idUSBREA151QL20140206

We can’t control events in any country, but we certainly do meddle in their affairs. Financial aid, supplying weapons, etc.

I understand that the White House is having red phones installed in Sic Willie, T-Rav and Ron Paul’s homes so that they can communicate directly with them on matters of national security.

Obama tried Scaring us to death and robbing us blind w/ Global Warming, until he and AlGore got laughed out of the room…

Heat did not work, so now this simple-minded idiot is going to the Cold War…to scare the Dumb@$$#$ he still inspires…

Underground bunkers and Bomb drills are making a comeback, to try and save this D*@m fool from his current crash…What a disgrace…

Fits Aint No Republican March 25, 2014 at 3:14 pm

Notice that Fits has NOTHING to say about the REPUBLICANS.Almost all of whom have depicted Obama as basically a pacifist.Instead,Fits portrays him as a warmonger.

No mention of Mitch McConnell,John Boehner,Ted Cruz(a Fits favorite),Mario Rubio,Eric. Cantor,Mike Rogers,Mitt Romney,indeed, just about EVERY Republican member of Congress who have bllamed the whole thing on Obama not being “tough enough.”

Of course, as we all know ,Fits Aint no Republican!Noooooooo!!!!!

Obama isn’t weak, nor is he a warmongerer. He’s simply a controlled puppet when it comes to foreign policy. He does what he’s told. He claims to be progressive on foreign policy but concedes defeat to whatever interest is tugging at him every time.

You are absolutely right though, the silence on this site regarding the myriad of Republicans calling for much harsher responses than Obama has so far offered should not go unnoticed.

There are far too many money ties to Russia that keep the US and EU from making good on any real threats anyways. Most of it is in the financial industry, which has heavy influence on Obama and most of Congress (if that hasn’t been made painfully clear already).

Did you really just work T-Rav into this article some how? Jumping Jehosafat you need help man! T-Rav is slightly less relevant and important to this convo than Snooki or Paulie D – whose show was only slightly less awful than T-Ravs. Given T-Rav did resign ignominuously as the state treasurer for one of our lesser populated states about 10 years ago – so I see why his thoughts on national security come to the fore immediately Note: sarcasm.

Can you two just get a ‘chat’ room already instead of using your blog to continuously jerk him off…?

SC’s very own Honey Boo Boo has a lot to do with political discussions because he’s totally tearing up the modern political scene. Yup. And he is in no way a disgraced hack trying to remain relevant in a society that couldn’t give two shits about him.

I very seldom wish time away, but I can hardly wait until November. I think Ravenel’s numbers will be bad enough to make Andre Bauer blush. Of course, FITS will continue to publish his every deep thought, all the while referring to him as “Senate candidate T-Rav Dreamy Pants.” Luckily, even Will’s mighty Ravenel doesn’t have enough money to buy the relevance you mentioned.

Careful…he yelled at me and hurt my feelings terribly when I accused him of bromancing Ravenel a few days ago. I had to pour myself a hot bubble bath, drop in some of my wife’s fancy bath bead thingys, soak in there for a while drinking white zin, and just have a good cry. I’m all better now. Oh, and by the way, when I need to “ask T-Rav” for information on foreign affairs (or anything other than hypocrisy, mid-life crises, and/or cocaine, for that matter), I’ll know know it’s time to hang up the spurs.

Mike, brwahaha, I think you and smirks below cleared it all up for me. I know like most S. Carolinians, ney, Americans and citizens of the planet the globe over, when i read a tid bit on national security/terrorism and other asymetrical threats, i just rub my WWTRD bracelet (What Would T-Rav Do) and think “come on Tommy help me now!” thanks for the chuckles.

Dude, where is your allegiance to South Carolina’s claim to fame, “Southern Charm”? Do you mean to tell me that you were not impressed with T-Rav’s performance on this past Monday’s episode?? I mean he IS only 55 and the young “lady” that he thought he impregnated IS way above the legal age of consent – she IS 21 you know. And so what if the whole cast stays drunk 99% of the time and talks about just about nothing. And so what if T-Rave flashed his very white ass for the cameras a couple of episodes ago. Dude, please show some respect for our southern and charming T-Rav!!
