The National Journal is one of the countless Obamaling allies, products of the left’s news industry created at the nation’s university departments of journalism and other social sciences, the Bill Ayers crowd. In the following article by James Oliphant, a billboard size picture of our dear leader, Chief Obamaling, B. H. Obama in blazing color is spread across the entire news page with a cut line following posing the president thinking deep thoughts.
It is the national Obamaling position to avoid issues which do not involve causing equality to be forced on the American people whatever the cost…..Marxist style in order for the government to be perpetually run by left wing fascists, racists, and feminists, graduates from Marxist university cliques from coast to coast who have created them.
Russia occupies 9% of the world’s land mass stretching across eleven time zones if I remember such figures correctly. These days it controls Europe’s energy use. It also has nuclear weapons equal to whatever the United States must muster according to the Obamaling doctrine. Europe has nothing outside NATO in worthy defense. Exactly what do these Obamalings in journalism suggest the Obamalings in the White House advise our use-to-be allies do to halt Russian aggression in the Ukraine, etc.? Where do these Obamalings guess Mr. Putin and his other exKGB bullies running the remains of the good-old USSR political prison will stop aggression once they have reduced the Ukraine to Russian imprisonment once again.
What does college-grad Obama black community organizer, Barack Hussein Obama advise Europeans to do to preserve their own independence? Fund raise?
Exactly what is mouth-Obama’s record of the past five years in assisting Europe in countering Putin as suggested in this Obamaling press? Are his pacts of assistance so secret no one is able to find any of them?
Vladimir Putin may be a wolf at the European door all right……what does that make our wuss in the Oval office and the Obamalings who worship this 44th presidency only because of a certain half of the color of his skin?

WHITE HOUSE
Obama Tells Europe to Step Up on Russia
It was clear from the president’s remarks about Ukraine that he now expects greater help from European allies in countering Putin.
It took a tragedy on the scale of the downed Malaysian airliner to amplify what President Obama and his national-security team have been saying for months—that Europe cannot afford to ignore the wolf at the door that is Vladimir Putin.
Standing before reporters in the White House briefing room, the president on Friday called the tragedy in eastern Ukraine “a wake-up call” to the continent and warned that the loss of 295 innocent lives, most of them European citizens, proves there are “consequences” to what he termed an escalating conflict “that is not going to be localized, it is not going to be contained.”
Obama had announced a new series of sanctions on Russian financial, energy, and defense entities just a day before a suspected missile strike took down Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 near Ukraine’s border with Russia. And, although the White House made a point of noting that the new penalties had been coordinated with the European Union, the E.U. again failed to go as far as the U.S. in targeting key industry sectors and wealthy industrialists with ties to Putin.
That has been the story since Russia first seized Crimea earlier this year: Obama taking a harder line on sanctions, with Europe, concerned about the effect such moves would have on its own regional economies, dragging its feet. It has been another source of tension, along with the U.S. global spying regime, between the administration and Germany, which has strong economic ties to Russia. Angela Merkel, the German chancellor, said Thursday that any talk of tougher E.U. sanctions was “premature.”
But Thursday’s incident may be changing the calculus. At a meeting of E.U. ambassadors Thursday evening, several member nations called for ramping up the penalties, the Financial Times reported, which quoted one diplomat as saying, “It will be easier [now] to get agreement on individual measures.”
A tougher stance by Europe has long been viewed as a needed cudgel to force Putin into backing off in Ukraine. Obama has largely been restrained in criticizing his European allies, although at a meeting of the G-7 in Brussels in June, he said he was disappointed that France was going ahead with a $1.6 billion deal to sell warships to Moscow.
But it was clear in his first extended remarks on the downed airliner that the president expects the out-of-the-blue attack on MH 17 to spur further, more severe action. He made a point, early in his remarks Friday, that most of the passengers on the plane were Dutch and that it was “destroyed in European skies.”
The event, he noted, “sadly brings home the degree to which the stakes are high for Europe, not simply for the Ukrainian people.”
His words came after Hillary Clinton, his former secretary of State, urged Europe to get tough in a PBS interview Thursday. If evidence links Russia to the missile strike, Europeans should immediately act on three counts, Clinton said: “One, toughen their own sanctions. Make it very clear there has to be a price to pay.”
Second, Clinton said, they needed to accelerate efforts to find alternatives to Gazprom, the Russian state-owned gas company that serves as a major energy supplier to Europe. Third, she said, the E.U. needed to do more in terms of material support to the Ukrainians.
“Europeans have to be the ones to take the lead on this,” Clinton said.
Greater European involvement would allow Obama some needed space in dealing with Putin, defusing the mano-a-mano dynamic that has marked the crisis, while allowing him to practice the kind of George H.W. Bush style of consensus-building diplomacy he and his team favors.
The hope is that the international outrage, combined with further penalties, will finally convince Putin that he has overplayed his hand. And as terrible an event as the crash as was, it may ultimately mean that Obama no longer has to be the loudest voice in the room. For a White House besieged by chaotic events at home and abroad, that could come as a welcome development, albeit one that comes at an awfully high cost.
