#1  When The Champ mocked Romney's reference to Russia as 'our greatest threat' during the presidential campaign, the US intelligence community was taking careful notes.

The King does not prefer cod fish. Do not mention cod fish, even in passing.

#2  Away from the conflict in Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin is quietly seeking a foothold in Latin America, military officials warn.

Ukraine/Russia <---> Latin America/USA do I perceive some kind of a pattern? Neh

#3  When The Champ mocked Romney's reference to Russia as 'our greatest threat' during the presidential campaign, the US intelligence community was taking careful notes.

The funny thing is, Romney probably would know enough to not tease the bear in its own lair---whereby preventing the threat from manifesting.

#4  No 'teasing' required. The chronically schizophrenic, paranoid Russian will generally act the same regardless. Like the Arab, they simply cannot be trusted, but with good reason. The dividends of generations of fear and oppression must be paid.

#5  I agree with Charles Krauthammer: Obama ‘pretendsÂ’

All this administration is doing is 'Poking the Bear'

#6  We'll never know if "no teasing was required", will we?

#7  Ukraine/Russia <---> Latin America/USA do I perceive some kind of a pattern?

Should the US then crush the Castro regime in response to Putin's move on Ukraine?

#9  Meanwhile, Obama has been implementing a Cloward-Piven's strategy here at home. Cloward and Pivens were a married couple of radical sociology professors at Columbia University back in the '60's who advocated collapsing our economic system by overloading the welfare system. But wait, that could never happen. Hey come to think of it, didn't Champ go to Columbia in the early '80's. He was a poly sci guy. I wonder if he came across Cloward and Pivens?
