Former Defense Secretary Robert Gates predicted Sunday that Russia will take control of the Crimea region of Ukraine during its political upheaval and suggested that section of the country is lost to Kiev and the Western world.
"You think Crimea's gone?" “Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace asked.
"I do," Gates replied. "I do not believe that Crimea will slip out of Russia's hand." . . Putin is giving BHO lessons on leadership, ... . http://outdrs.net/laughs/lb0304cd20140303090248.jpg

Posted - October 25 2022 : 01:05:47 AM It is interesting how this discussion from 8 1/2 years ago is applicable today.
I don't know how (or whether) Hawkeye would involve himself in the the Ukraine vs Russia war. I do have an opinion based upon my recollection of a quote from the LOTM movie. Hawkeye would tell to any recruiter from the Donbass separatist territorial (militia) forces "We sure ain't no damn militia". Their relatively poor performance levels would not match up to his high level of expectations. |

That's a good question MG, given the quality of prize recipients over the last couple of decades (with few exceptions, mostly hard-left Marxist-Progressives). The only thing that would prevent Putin from getting the Nobel 'Participation Trophy' is the fact that he might be personally too masculine for the effeminate committee members

Putin is taking our president 'to school' MG, but I think that Obama will transcend this education unscathed as well. Mr. Obama spent his whole life being told that he was the smartest guy in the room (and what a 'room' that must be!), and therefore he thinks that he is above learning any lesson, no matter how important or critical.
