Does that mean he'd satisfy the membership criteria for a certain (private) London club.:E

Sorry, so sorry, moment of weakness:(

So you never wondered why people call you Lightening then? :E

If one looks at his KGB and then FSB background he must be one of the most switched on leaders in the world today, probably the most switched on.
He is a genius.
When one compares him with western leaders, most of them have never done anything meaningful in the past. They all seem to display a huge lack of experience and knowledge.

As in 'enlightening'? Oh, you mean 'lightning'.

(Pedantic smiley goes here.)

It's Ok Ronald, you've confessed all, now ask the nice Mr Putin to remove the thumb screws.

Obama could get out thought by a 5 year old kid at the moment.............incompetent, and inept.

Carter was the most inept President in last 60 years but probably the most honorable man to have sat in the White House for many years and post Watergate restored a little bit of respect to that office.

Obama has overtaken Carter for ineptness but I see nothing of honor nor expect to ever see any.

Gosh, peace seems to have broken out here too. What's going on?

He is a genius.
You don't think he's a little, erm, vain? And quite short, so I've heard. Do you think he's repressing something, maybe certain inclinations? Perhaps you could ask him if you ever meet him - I'm sure he'd laugh heartily and give you a manly slap on the back.

I just watched the video of John (Who served in Vietnam you may recall) Kerry broaching the idea that Syria might surrender its ChemWeps....which was plainly a chicken **** answer to a question he did not like.

Then a few hours later the Russians make it a serious initiative.

Then the Syrian Foreign Minister says his Country would welcome such a deal.

Finally, when Chris Wallace from FOX interviews Obama....The Welfare Man is all enthused about it.

Simple question.....why did the Moron not offer this BEFORE banging the War Drums?

Now....the Politicians, like my two Senators that were on record as being ready to vote for War.....are really going to have some serious Egg on their Face if in fact there is a peaceful solution to this before they can get their Vote registered so they can say their courageous Vote secured a Peaceful solution to this.

Obama has really trick fecked some Republicans on this.....all by misadventure rather than by planning and conspiracy however.

As there appears a peaceful solution may be in the offing....Obama will hold off on the Congressional Vote....the missiles will stay in their launchers....John Kerry will get to act like he is a Statesman and a Genius by tricking the Russians into going for a UN Solution....the Welfare Man sets himself up for another Nobel Gong....Assad stays in power....Al Qaeda continues to murder....and the World's Armament dealers keep making money. Everyone wins......oh....well except for the 1500 dead that everyone was so worried over....but what the hell dead is dead right?

You such a cynic.......:E

I got it wrong.....Congress is tickled pink....as they will not have to vote and thus escape retribution at the next election they stand for.

NutLoose 9th Sep 2013 23:48

Yup they will be able to say we would have / would not have supported him, whichever way the mood in the Country is at the time.
