Obama And Putin Speak, Again - Here Is The White House Summary
Another day, another drawn out, pointless conversation between Obama and Putin, which will do nothing to prevent the imminent annexation of Crimea, whose people have voted and decided to join Russia.
From the White House:
President Obama spoke this afternoon with President Putin of Russia.
President Obama emphasized that the Crimean “referendum,” which violates the Ukrainian constitution and occurred under duress of Russian military intervention, would never be recognized by the United States and the international community.
He emphasized that Russia’s actions were in violation of Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity and that, in coordination with our European partners, we are prepared to impose additional costs on Russia for its actions.
President Obama underscored that there remains a clear path for resolving this crisis diplomatically, in a way that addresses the interests of both Russia and the people of Ukraine.
He noted that the Ukrainian government continues to take concrete steps that would allow for the de-escalation of the crisis, particularly as it prepares for elections this Spring and undertakes constitutional reform, and he asked that Russia support the immediate deployment of international monitors to help prevent acts of violence by any groups.
President Obama reiterated that a diplomatic resolution cannot be achieved while Russian military forces continue their incursions into Ukrainian territory and that the large-scale Russian military exercises on Ukraine’s borders only exacerbate the tension.
President Obama said that Secretary Kerry continues to be prepared to work together with Foreign Minister Lavrov and the Ukrainian government to find a diplomatic resolution to the crisis.
Photo of the president, with sleeves rolled up and a pained expression on his face to be released shortly. Meanwhile Putin's oblivious trampling of all Obama warnings, pleadings, threats, teleprompter readings and what not continues without a hitch.
Meanwhile, this is the Kremlin's take of the same conversation:
At the initiative of the American side Vladimir Putin had a phone conversation with U.S. President Barack Obama.
The topic of the continued discussion were the various aspects of the crisis in Ukraine. Putin drew attention to the inability and unwillingness of the current Kiev authorities to curb rampant ultra-nationalist and radical groups, destabilizing and terrorizing civilians, including Russian-speaking population and our compatriots.
In this context is being considered sending an OSCE monitoring mission to the Ukraine. According to the President of Russia, the activity of such a mission should be extended to all Ukrainian regions .
In connection with the referendum held in Crimea, Putin stressed that it is fully consistent with international law and the UN Charter and takes into account, in particular, the famous Kosovo precedent. At the same time the inhabitants of the peninsula were guaranteed the possibility of free will and self-determination.
The heads of state noted that, despite the differences in opinion the two should work together to seek ways to help stabilize the situation in Ukraine .
The U.S. President congratulated the President of Russia on the success of the Paralympic Winter Games and asked to convey greetings to the participants of the competition.

His article that follwed on his website was about how Crimea gave 'the finger' to Washington with its vote.
One of the great quotes:
"The United States government is the worst criminal enterprise in the history of the world. Not a single member of the government has told the truth about anything in the entire 21st century. The executive branch lies consistently to Congress, and the cowardly, weak, despicable fools sit there and take it. Congress is so useless it might as well be abolished. I expect Obama to issue an executive order abolishing the useless institution at any moment.
But “we have freedom and democracy.”
The truth is that the entire evil of the universe is concentrated in Washington. It is this evil that is destroying millions of lives, and it is this evil that will destroy the world."
Leave him on hold for an hour again?
Obomba is a rookie jerk

“As democracy is perfected, the office of the President represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last and the White House will be occupied by a downright fool and complete narcissistic moron.”— H.L. Mencken, The Baltimore Evening Sun, July 26, 1920
That cardboard cutout picture of the gay kenyan holding a phone reminds me of our president at a staged photo op.
That is the same staged photo used last week.
"More to the left, sir."
"Can I unplug the phone? The dial tone is annoying."
"Sure."
BS. The homo in chief and Putin are in this together. Remember what he said to the Russian president a couple of years ago?
Is it to late for Obama to Tag Ronnie Reagan to put a headlock on this Russian bear?
Do you really think Putin has this kind of time to talk to this guy?
He has bear to hunt, and horses to ride. Maybe he is turning Obama upside down and shaking the lunch money out of his pockets. Is rich little still alive?
