Those damned Russkies

Good ol' Vlad done stuck it to The Man...Again. I never dreamed I'd see the day that the Russians were the force of good in the world, and America would be told 'if you can't play nice, go sit in the corner'.

And that's exactly how America is seen globally. A spoiled, petulant child that when he doesn't get his way, first stamps his feet, then strikes out from a sense of futility.

Putin says: It is alarming that military intervention in internal conflicts in foreign countries has become commonplace for the United States. Is it in America’s long-term interest? I doubt it. Millions around the world increasingly see America not as a model of democracy but as relying solely on brute force, cobbling coalitions together under the slogan “you’re either with us or against us.”
But force has proved ineffective and pointless. Afghanistan is reeling, and no one can say what will happen after international forces withdraw. Libya is divided into tribes and clans. In Iraq the civil war continues, with dozens killed each day. In the United States, many draw an analogy between Iraq and Syria, and ask why their government would want to repeat recent mistakes. Read the full New York Times op-ed article from Putin here.
 
Its almost sad that our once sworn enemies, THE REDS, (oh MY!) support our ideals more than the historical leader of the free world.
 
And its not our 'policies' that make us unique, its our spirit. A spirit that mr. obama is doing his best to emasculate and destroy.
