My issue isn't going to war or attacking Russia. My issue is that our leadership is very weak and is becoming a laughing stock.



What do they need to do to appear strong? Kick out Russians with student visas and scientists and artists with visas?

How about not drawing lines in the sand or establishing red lines that can't be crossed?

If you are going to draw a line in the sand, mean it. Otherwise, don't say anything at all.

In this situation it would have been best if Obama/Kerry just remained silent.

There is nothing they can do at this point.

They threw that away with their previous empty challenges to Egypt and Syria.

To clarify, I didn't want anything to do with those situations either. The problem is that the president made demands and threats and then proceeded to not back any if it up.

That makes him appear weak.
