The "Arab Spring": Where Obama Saw Sparkly Purple Unicorns, Putin Saw Reality
Everett Rosenfeld writes at CNBC about Putin's remarks on what idiots were those (like our nitwit President) who supported "democratic revolutions" (in countries that cannot culturally support democracy, due to its running exactly contrary to the totalitarianism commanded by Islam):
"Instead of the triumph of democracy and progress, we got violence, poverty and social disaster -- and nobody cares a bit about human rights, including the right to life," Putin said through a translator. "I cannot help asking those who have forced that situation: Do you realize what you have done?"The Russian president added that the power vacuum following these revolutions led to the rise of terrorist groups in the region -- including the Islamic State group.
Meanwhile, in the UK, the country is busy committing suicide. A tweet:

My train of thought during Arab Spring, "Oh how nice, the people are overthrowing the socialist dictators... wait a sec... what's the other major political force in the region? Oh shit"

Exactly.

Putin is playing the Great Game while Obama is playing Tiddlywinks.

Cut the empty suit some slack. After all, a community organizer is no match for the likes of Putin.

Really, it comes as no surprise that Obama has passed "America's Role" to another.
You know, being President instead of going on TV shows like The View is so hard.
How about they have a "shirts off" competition to see who is the better man? (Yuck, I cannot believe I just said that!)
