Sarah Palin is a prophet, Barack Obama is a weakling

They laughed at Sarah Palin in the 2008 Presidential campaign. They're not laughing anymore. Sarah Palin said that if Barack Hussein Obama was elected President of the United States, Russia would invade the Ukraine.

Let's go to the videotape.




Breitbart has more.
For those comments, she was mocked by the high-brow Foreign Policy magazine and its editor Blake Hounshell, who now is one of the editors of Politico magazine. 
In light of recent events in Ukraine and concerns that Russia is getting its troops ready to cross the border into the neighboring nation, nobody seems to be laughing at or dismissing those comments now.
Hounshell wrote then that Palin's comments were "strange" and "this is an extremely far-fetched scenario."
"And given how Russia has been able to unsettle Ukraine's pro-Western government without firing a shot, I don't see why violence would be necessary to bring Kiev to heel," Hounshell dismissively wrote. 
Palin made her remarks on the stump after Obama's running mate Joe Biden warned Obama supporters to "gird  your loins" if Obama is elected because international leaders may test or try to take advantage of him.
Charles Krauthammer blasted President Obama's 'flaccid' reaction to the invasion.
“The Ukrainians — and I think everybody — are shocked by the weakness of Obama’s statements,” Krauthammer began. “I find it rather staggering . . . What he’s saying is we’re not going to really do anything, and we’re telling the world.”
Jonah Goldberg said that Obama’s reluctance to take a hard line against Putin’s actions in Ukraine unsurprising. “When you listen to Barack Obama talk about this stuff, you get the sense that he as no — I’m sure he knows these things, but you get no sense that he very much cares . . . all of his foreign policy has been through the prism of domestic politics.”
Krauthammer agreed, claiming the international community is now unlikely to strongly condemn Russian aggression. “The world always waits for the signal,” he explained. “You could not have issued a more flaccid statement than what Obama did. Why did he issue it at all? He should’ve just stayed at the White House and gone off and had his happy hour with the Democrats.”
“The world sees this and it knows — as we just heard, they can tell if a president cares,” he concluded. “And if he doesn’t, they won’t care. Because unless you’re led by the superpower, you will not go.”
Let's go to the videotape.




What do you think he'll do when - God forbid - Iran goes nuclear?
