The USSR....

At least they harvest their own energy.

[WNYresident]

Every strong country has it's own resources....

[raoul duke]

Energy is not the only issue, by far.

Obama good points, Georgian Independance, Nuclear proliferation and anti-Cold war stance

Good thing Mccain saw KGB in Putin's eye, is this guy for real? He sounds like a bad Arnold movie with sad one liners. Oh and he was there "once"

Is that why Americans keep getting weaker?

"Sphere of influence" is not a modern strategy.

Why should russia respect international borders yets we invaded Iraq and we lets illegals flood from our south border?

[LHardy]

Obama again agrees with McCain

It's very good. Enjoying a Great Lakes, Edmund Fitzgerald. Best porter in a bottle. "Sphere of influence" is as old as Babylon, btw.

[LHardy]

Russia is on the move and does need surveillance.

Uh he said they both agree with each other, nice one though

Don't be dumb and compare a aggressive war with economic issues. Good point, on the first part, however.

[LHardy]

He just stole McCains Line. HA!

Just becuase we invaded Iraq doesn't mean it was right. We should be outta there, GW and McCain lied to the American citizenry and we were wrong to go into Iraq. We should be in Afghanistan only.


The South of the border thing is the opposite of what you are arguing, we are being invaded not the other way around.

[zanna vaida]

McCain understand what's happening in Georgia, Ukraine and Krim (Americans say Criminia) and Georgia. He knows and understand their history and gave good factual support. He even pronoused Ukrainians politician names correctly. I'll vote for him.

Shame on Obama for using the the article in fron of independent country Ukraine! He just lost Ukrainian votes.

[Mary3]

Good thing he is not running for president there. ;)

[raoul duke]

Hopefully McCain could reestablish relations with Czechoslovakia.

Is this a grammar issue?

[Save Us]

Russia's failed government economy continues to be emulated by NY.

Aha! Bullseye.

[Dumbfounded]

Good thing he is not running for president there. ;)

Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!

Russia, Iran, N. Korea are not our immediate concerns.
At a time when the U.S. military is stretched thinner than ever we have no right to tell Putin what kind of dictator HE should be.

Most of the debate issues should be domestic in nature, yes, even though we live in a world without borders, a world in which terrorists can magically cross oceans in boats and airplanes, a world where brain dead zombies like Palin become celebrities...What was I saying?

Hey! I'm 3/4 Russian in ancestry! Odessa, Kiev and something else and if I WAS going to vote for our next puppet in November, it'd be for Obama in lieu of the mumbling Mummy who spoke in generalizations, lying with a straight face as Obama tore him a new one just on his voting record (McCain's) alone.



We have no place messing with Russia except if it ever comes down to serious self-defense and I don't see Putin "kicking sand in our faces just yet."


The only major foreign concerns we should have is to get the hell out of Iraq, Afghanastan (since we've accomplished NOTHING there either) and focus mainly on the "here and now" or healing America;An ideal, nothing more. I know.
