Obama Embarassment: Snowden Allowed To Stay In Russia

Crybaby

You know damn well this would not have happened under George Bush because Putin and the Russians respected Bush, even if they disagreed on issues.
With President Obama, the Russians have no respect for the man.
From the Chicago Tribune: After causing weeks of embarrassment for the U.S. intelligence community, the Edward Snowden saga has now cast a shadow over international efforts to end the Syrian civil war and deal with Iran, and could also undermine White House hopes for a nuclear arms reduction deal.
Russia's decision on Thursday to grant asylum to Snowden threatens to send already-strained relations between the United States and Russia to the lowest point in years and further complicate efforts to work out geopolitical challenges.
With Russia's sheltering of the former U.S. spy agency contractor seen as a slap in the face to President Barack Obama, the White House is weighing whether he should now back out of a Moscow summit in early September, in a direct snub to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The fact that Washington is even issuing such a threat underscores the potentially damaging repercussions for any prospects of reconciling the two former Cold War rivals on thorny global issues that go well beyond the fate of a single 30-year-old hacker trying to evade U.S. prosecution, analysts say.
The two men are highly unlikely to sort out all their many differences even if the summit goes ahead as planned. They have bad personal chemistry and previous meetings have been awkward and unproductive.  http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/sns-rt-us-usa-security-20130801,0,3712553.story
It's also obvious that John Kerry and Hillary Clinton before him have also helped destroy the relationship between Russia and the United States.  And the reason for that, quite simply is that Russia sees us as a weak country- they know nothing we do about the Snowden problem will hurt Russia.
And other than a bunch of talking, Obama won't do a damn thing because he is weak and he is a liberal college professor who thinks talking and making proclamations is the way to lead the world.
Well, it ain't and Russia called Obama's bluff.
Let's see what Obama does next, because after all, it's all about Obama and he doesn't want to look any worse than he does now.
