i saw the earlier report, that said there had been an ultimatum. as you can see, that is being denied by russia-but i'd take any of their pronouncements with a grain of salt.
fools rush in where angels fear to tread....

i have to think the people with the money will be hollering for putin to put his toys in his backpack and go home. i doubt they expected that kind of market hit.

You may not realize this but the people with money in Russia are all pretty much completely beholden to Putin, not the other way around like in the US.

This is guy is an example of what happens when you cross Mr Putin

That's a side effect of the command-and-control economy that Obama is trying to implement here. "Picking winners and losers" - that determines the direction and flow of influence.

Not new - the Russians had it since 1917 - but an unprecedented push to bring it here to America.

Now that you have hijacked the thread with you tired anti Obama, Rush Limbaugh Parrot act. Please infom us how Obama's policies on the topic you bring up are any different than those of the last 30 years.
