    YOU know and I know that Putin is always showcasing his Martial Arts abilities on TV.

    Putin get's off showing people he can fight and it is almost a sickness with him.

    Or is the sickness with Vlad the Invader's worshippers? After all, he is playing to the crowd.

    I don't care if it's Putin or Obama - politician-worship is for LOSERS.

    I agree.

    People need to think for themselves.

    This something that is in short supply in Russia.

    I see that you know nothing about the motivation of the Russian people. We like the policy of Putin.

    It's not difficult to understand why many Russians like Putin and his policies. Your country and its people aren't much different from Germany and its people during the 1930s.

    Almost without exception, history shows that the domestic popularity of dictators and autocrats increases exponentially inverse to the extent to which they are demonized. Unless they are a genuine threat to world peace, we should not stick our noses into the affairs of other countries'. It's not our God given right to be the policemen of the world because nobody has inferred that right on us and we only ever make situations worse when we attempt to import our version of democracy on others at the point of a gun.

    Thanks. As a fan of Obi Wan, I think it proves my point quite well.

    You really believe that the hugely costly efforts to get at shale oil deposits are going to make the US self-sufficient? Not in a million years. Russia isn't hurting, nor will it, and Iran has continued to export oil in spite of the failed embargo and sanctions.http://www.theguardian.com/business...takes-saudi-arabia-largest-supplier-oil-china

    And America has a $20 trillion debt. Not exactly a great example of the wonders of capitalism, is it?

    Jeez, people in glass houses throwing stones at others....

    It never ends.

    Russia doesn't have an $18.5 trillion national debt producing a debt to GDP ratio of almost 103%

    But then the US spends $581 billion on defence annually, thereby keeping executives in US defence corporations living on the hog at the expense of the tax-payer. War is profit.

    The US does though. I don't know how it can afford to keep on waging all these wars?

    Zimbabwe has half the GDP ratio indebtedness than the US. Theirs stands at 53.39% of GDP as of 2014.

    QE only puts off the day when the Ghost of Quantative Easing Past loudly knocks on the front door and demands that his IOU be paid in full.

    Comrade how are you. I actually tried editing my earlier post down. Now Comrade, if you want to cheer lead Vlad on this forum of course I will challenge it. I don't hate Russia by the way, my contempt is directed at- Putin the pathetic tiny man.

    You are attracted to him because he is what exactly? Your Russian Messiah? What has Vlad the Jesus of Russia done for you? Hmmm?

    What you really think he is another Uncle Joe? You really think he has resurrected the good old days when men were men and the KGB killed everyone? Hmmm?

    What has he done since he's been in office? Your people have no food. The economy is non existent. The only people working are your Russian mob protected by Putin. That is fact. What kind of b.s. do you want to feed people about how wonderful it is in Russia. You want to try?

    Tell me how wonderful it is to be Russian. Yep, no food, no work, but hey Vlad is dropping bombs in Syria. Yes sir. He sure is tough. He completely manhandled an invasion of Ukraine, but hey, big Macho Vlad is bombing pro Western anti Syrians. Tough guy.

    Putin is no Stalin. He's Mussolini. He picks and chooses who he fights. He's a pathetic closeted sissy, Yah you heard me. The need to constantly show what a man he is, yah I know, its to compensate for his long Turkish sauna baths. Give it a rest.

    You want words? There you have them comrade. One last thing, come back when you want to discuss how great things are in the motherland.

    As for Putin's personal habits, what you think Snowden didn't release videos of him in the saunas? Lol.

    Total Military Spending was over 1 Trillion/yr last time I checked. "Defense" is not the only line item on the balance sheet.

    It has been confirmed that Russia is now killing American backed rebels and Cuba has joined in. The US and Russia are now in a proxy war after Obama said that it wouldn't happen. Those who say differently are either uninformed, misinformed or lying.

    Meanwhile the President's mouthpiece (Josh Ernest) says Obama promised there will be no proxy war between U.S. and Russia. But........There is!!! I guess Obama thinks if you tell a lie long enough it magically becomes truth. Too bad nobody told Putin.

    Your inability to respond with a substantive rebuttal is duly noted.
