It's very interesting position the Ukraine security services took. A heads up for other political leaders perhaps?

I am actually surprised it hasn't happened here yet.....I guess too many people infatuated with Justine Bieber, Duck Dynasty controversy and oh hey look....another rebooted 80's movie.
Russia statement today is a little heads up about their position. GOP tells Obama warn Russia not to interfere.

Obama has shown he has no clue how to handle Putin or a foreign policy crisis. Putin will do whatever he wants while Obama fiddles. The only thing left is will he blame it on Bush or a Youtube video. Only one of Obama, Kerry or Hillary has any balls to deal with Putin and we all know who that is.
The armed men in military battle gear carrying military weapons were not part of the Black Sea Fleet command. Nope, they were another command. Betcha there will be a lot of Russian transport planes visiting those airports pretty quick. And probably a squadron or 2 of helicopters, SUs and Migs will be calling those home for a time.

Sure, you betcha
. I do think the UN is scared out of what passes for their brains. And whatever pointless resolution they make, Russia will no doubt veto. He might even invoke the tired; It's for the children!
Obama just came on the tube and said that Putin has 48 hrs to get his junk out of Ukraine or we'll send in a squadron of our new supersecret hypersonic, laser equipped, totally invisible, attack saucer drones and erase his entire country.
Just kidding.
He actually said something along the lines of: "Gee, we really don't like this, but there isn't squat we do about it"

Good one Gunny. Does anyone in the whole world believe Obama will do anything about this other than make a speech? He's a joke on the world stage. Putin owns him, former enemies feel betrayed by him and enemies walk all over him. Our image in the world is at it's lowest in my lifetime. It's even worse than Carter.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- U.S. officials said Friday that President Barack Obama may scrap plans to attend an international summit in Russia this summer and could also halt discussions on deepening trade ties with Moscow, raising specific possible consequences if Russia should intervene in Ukraine. Obama himself bluntly warned of unspecified "costs" for Russia.
"Any violation of Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity would be deeply destabilizing," Obama declared. Such action by Russia would represent a "profound interference" in matters that must be decided by the Ukrainian people, he said.

S**t storm is coming my friends. Puttin has been doodling us for years now, and Obummer is flapping is ears in the wind hoping the UN will take care of it, while Mrs. Obummer does late night TV skits. The fact that we're the laughing stock of two major world powers on the Asian continent is nothing less than discerning!
Voting has consequences.
Something tells me a beer summit won't fix this.
Perhaps they will rethink this downsizing of our military?

I just ran into this little gem. I wonder how Barry will get out of this one:
A treaty signed in 1994 by the US and Britain could pull both countries into a war to protect Ukraine if President Putin’s troops cross into the country.
Bill Clinton, John Major, Boris Yeltsin and Leonid Kuchma – the then-rulers of the USA, UK, Russia and Ukraine – agreed to the The Budapest Memorandum as part of the denuclearization of former Soviet republics after the dissolution of the Soviet Union
Technically it means that if Russia has invaded Ukraine then it would be difficult for the US and Britain to avoid going to war.

Here we go. Anybody believe the Russian Parliament will not go along?
Things are moving fast. Russian Parliament just approved the above, in less than 2hrs. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-26400597 .
Ball is in your court, Obama. Watcha gonna do?
