BBC News: Reports the following from the Ukraine Government on the Russian threat, " warned on Wednesday of a "critical situation" on the country's eastern and southern borders...Russian 80,000 troops were now massing. ".
Lets Get Real:
This is the time for the Oval Office to bring the hammer down on Russia, it should state that any invasion of the Ukraine would be seen as a direct threat to the national security of the US, in other words if Russia moves it comes in to direct confrontation with the US. The one thing that President Obama can not do is allow the Ukraine to be taken over by Russia, his Presidential legacy would go down the toilet, being the 1st African - President would not be enough, the Oval has to stand up to Putin, even at the risk of a new Cold War, Obama's polls are in the mid 40%, when the leader is unpopular he shows his leadership status by making the tough decisions, a security cover for Ukraine would not be popular with the left wing, but it would show Presidential leadership, time for Obama to make his choice, greatness or another Jimmy Carter.
