Seriously, if you watch Faux news the last three months you've heard all the pundits cited above praise Putin for: His "manliness" and "strong" stance. They drool over his ability to say he'll do something and immediately do it.
They claim he's been playing chess while our limp-wristed president has been playing checkers.
Yessirree sir, the right wing thinks acting tough is more important than being smart. (This is the theme of the republican foreign policy since Nixon).
Case in point: Ukraine is still Ukraine except for Crimea. Due to the financial sanctions Obama authored and got our European partners to agree to, the Russian ruble has fallen to it's lowest value since WWII. Russia is in deep financial trouble and so is Putin.
For him, the good news is that all the crew at FOX News adores him while hating our first black President.
Reality!!
