Ukraine is not our problem

America has again been placed in another very precarious position by Obama threatening Russia for its occupation of the Ukraine. The Ukraine was involved in a civil war at the time and it is bordering Russia.

Why shouldn’t Russia try to defuse the situation in the Ukraine by being a buffer between the two hostile factions? Putin never demanded that we get out of Iraq or Afghanistan, even though Russia lost a lot of money and troops in Afghanistan.

Obama should be more concerned about gas prices, food prices, jobs, national debt, etc. The Obama administration continues to use “diversionary” tactics again in an effort to draw attention away from its failed domestic policies.
