Russia

There is so much reckless talk these days from pundits, candidates and world leaders that it makes me wonder just how serious most of these situations really are. Do not get me wrong, I worry about nukes, and terrorists, and world economic issues along with some concerns here, but this is why I support the President so much. He is cool. He doesn't overreact, and he analzyes without too much incendiary bluster. I hope, however, he is looking closely at Russia. Many think that since the decline of the Soviet Union, we have a reliable democratic friend in Russia. Well, we don't. Former KGB agents really never change and Vladmir Putin is certainly taking an election and an undemocratic seizure of power, instincts never lost by him. He still views the iron hand of Politburo days of old as the rule of today. Most concerning to us, should be how Russia won't even condemn Syrian genocide and actually along with China blocked a necessary step toward resolution of the Assad terror. Russia continues to support some of our enemies with economic support and trade. Russia still controls tons of nukes and is surrounded by old Soviet satellite states that are oil rich and prone to terror and recklessness. So, not to drum up any cold war fanaticism, while we listen to the crazies threaten and scare, the real scare should probably be from our old friends the Rooskies. I'd keep an eye out. Where are you Americans for reason and truth?
