The Market is Concerned about War . . .

I have tried to stay away from politics, especially US national politics.  But it appears that it is inevitable that I must comment. 

Our weak and hapless Chief Executive is letting us drift into war.  Maybe not our war but yet a war in the Ukraine Republic.  Sounds almost Hitleristic in his grab of the Sudeten Lands of Czechoslovakia during the on set of WW-II.  Putin is slowly carving up the Ukraine in much the same manner with much the same excuse.  He does so because he senses the weakness in out President in his indecision and lack of world leadership.

Today we learned a US warship was deliberately buzzed by a Russian fighter.  That is a serious indiscretion and totally unresponsive by our government.  It further reinforces Putin's resolve.  Are we seeing yet another Anthony Eden type diplomatic failure?

Europe seems to recognize what is going on and we have our heads stuck in the ground.  The Russians saw Obama cave into the Iranians.  He, Putin, is far more stronger than the Iranians.  So if the punny Iranians can get away with what they have done, then it should be no problem for him to take the Ukraine back with little or no effort.

Obama has done little for the economy, he is destroying the medical system and now the world is beginning to burn and he goes off to campaign.  Geez what loser.  I hope our nation can survive.
