#2 Kerry assured the world this would not happen. He will be in Kiev he said tonight, with nothing to offer.

#4 tu3031: keep in mind that this is the same Kerry that helped sell about 27 million (I think the last time I counted) people into serfdom to the Russian and Chinese mobs back in the 70's and he didn't even get anything material out of it.

Kerry is competent enough that he can do the evil that he does and have you talking about what an incompetent pansy he is instead of what an evil person he is.

#5 I was watching the live video feed of the last couple of days of the pro-western demonstrations. Every now and then I would see simple camera mounted drones appear, move up to the front lines, hover above the scene, change position, monitor the lines, then quickly disappear.

The pro-Russian side was 19th century in their formations. The pro-western side was aggressive, well planned, and were monitoring their progress and the opposition with small drones.

In an extended conflict, out numbered, but well planned and well monitored steps using such modern tools will win out.

He got the undying support of the Democrat party out of it.
