Not true. The purpose was to come up with a framework for talks that would led to mutually agreed to verification by both sides that Iran was not attempting to use it's nuclear program to acquire nuclear weapons. Nothing was dismissed.
Some of us care about outcomes, others appear to care more about intentions.
:lol: Putin is a left-wing autocratic dictator with even less regard for the West than he has for individual liberty. If he was in charge of any other country, the Left would be feting him like they celebrated Chavez. And the only miserable defense you can muster for the utter fail that is this administrations' policy towards Russia is to launch the feeble critique that the people on the side of the aisle whom your guy made fun of for warning us about Putin are secretly fans of his?
:lamo, man. Must be mighty depressing to be a Dem, these days.
:lol: Ukraine's GDP per capita is less half of Turkey's, which isn't allowed membership, bringing in the Ukraine when they are still extremely fragile is... very unlikely - especially if Putin makes it clear that he doesn't want them to. :lol: but your argument is still that Putin gets' everything he wants, and you count that as a loss for him? Good luck spinning that to anyone beyond those who are Desperate To Believe.
It's Obama target practice time. I'm not thrilled with much of what he's done either but its not his blackness or, his party affiliation.
Yeah, they are trying to whittle him down to nothing. Unfortunately, he has made a big mistake on this issue. He didn't do himself any favors here. In fact, he may have ruined his whole presidency, to be brutally honest. It's a shame to, because after his first term, it looked like he was starting to be a substantial President.
Yeah, unfortunately, I never got that excited. I really was hoping for change I could believe in. It didn't come. In fact, many of the things I was disgruntled about with George Bush, he only expanded. The first hint that he wasn't going to be any different though, came in July 08' when he was still on the campaign trail and said that as president, he would attack AQ in Pakistan, with or without the Pakistani governments permission. So much for Obama's respect for borders and sovereignty!!
I remember when he said that. Yep, that should have been a big signal that he was just another politician.
I suppose it's a matter of understanding your audience and how this will be picked up by those who are only critical of the US. You certainly made a good point though.I live in Georgia. I'm a pistol carrying pig hunting auto mechanic who lives on 20 acres of woods in the mountains. When we refer to ''Murica" we're not talking about the one liberals like. It's not a slur here. It's more of a joke along the lines of "I'm pretty sure those soft opinionated types would disagree with what we are doing here". We actually do have things like a school systems (pretty good schools actually), internet, government and all the same retail stores everyone else does. But when someone says "Have a blessed day" we don't get our panties in a wad about it. I'm actually from the Chicago suburbs originally and moved here on purpose. The guy I'm hunting with this weekend is a brilliant machinist. The guy from Ukraine who is handling my marketing has an engineering degree but lives almost off grid. We had to postpone our meeting because one of his goats had a kid. We are all business owners and have employees.
So when we use terms like that it is to enforce a stereotype and make a joke. It's beautiful here, we don't want the "enlightened" crowd moving down here to change it.

Of course it's his party affiliation, as well as his not knowing how the world works. In fact he has been incorrectly taught on how the world works, a double disadvantage.
What he is really good at is winning elections via making false promises and uttering forceful, though empty, slogans. After that there is just nothing there.
The Republicans should adopt "Really Real Hope and Change For Sure This Time" as their campaign slogan, make the same promises BHO made, and the Left might buy it again,
You won't find me apologizing for Obama, I'm quite disgusted with him. But there won't be any meaningful change coming from the next republican admin. Either. Slogan all they want.

Here's a little information on that "aid" package. I sure hope Obama and Co. don't show up here to hep" me out. Hot dam y'all, ah swar, but it looks like the Big Corporations won't be hurt and who'd a thunk that? Looks like the poor will get to suffer, but what the hell, they're used to it, eh? Hope and change? Not for Ukraine.
The Looting Of Ukraine Has Begun
"By Paul Craig Roberts
March 07, 2014 "Information Clearing House - According to a report in Kommersant-Ukraine, the finance ministry of Washington’s stooges in Kiev who are pretending to be a government has prepared an economic austerity plan that will cut Ukrainian pensions from $160 to $80 so that Western bankers who lent money to Ukraine can be repaid at the expense of Ukraine’s poor. Ú.Óêðàèíà-Ãàçåòà - Øîê è ðàñ÷åò It is Greece all over again.
This is a private opinion unencumbered by facts.
So the American electorate should vote for another Democrat?
Of course not. It's time for change we can believe in. There's a dimes thickness of difference between the two parties in the end. While many recognize this, until a large majority of Americans do, and put their citizenship ahead of partisan loyalties, we can expect more.
So we are recognising this "new" Ukrainian government as legit and democratic he called it, despite the fact it came about through intrigue and violence and isn't recognised by all Ukrainians. Thing is, it will be representative of Western interests, and THAT is what makes it legit.
The Republicans should adopt "Really Real Hope and Change For Sure This Time" as their campaign slogan, make the same promises BHO made, and the Left might buy it again,
Washington will exploit the weakness to the point that Washington forces Putin to war.
The war will be nuclear."
The Western powers have to at least place sanctions on Russia if they are not going to help Ukraine. We cannot let Russia invade whoever they want.
I surely hope not.
Both parties will likely do something strongly resembling that. People shouldn't fall for that garbage. It's something that has been done over and over again, long before Obama.
You're right, but people keep falling for it. I can understand a first term for BHO but a second defies credulity.
