Diplomacy works…again…

Well…I am kind of laughing at the fits that right has been throwing over the Ukraine unrest calling Obama weak and howling for some show of military force to try to intimidate Putin into leaving Ukraine alone and not invading….and the comparisons of Obama to Putin…that Putin is a strong leader since he will not hesitate to use military force…and that Obama looks weak since he prefers to use all of the diplomatic tools in the toolbox first; leaving military action as a last resort (which, by the way, has been US foreign policy since the country was founded)… yadda, yadda. With the events of the past few days, and the fact that Putin has called his troops back to their bases defusing the situation somewhat in response to diplomatic pressure, we see that the right is wrong…again..or should I say as always? Diplomacy done right works in most cases…some thing that the chickenhawks on the right just don’t want to hear….where is the profit for their buddies if there is no more war? What I want to see now is Palin, Graham, and the rest of these idiots to apologize for their attempted undermining of our foreign policy for political reasons…and to admit that they don’t know what the hell they are talking about…but, facts don’t matter to the right so I guess I shouldn’t hold my breath…geez….
