Putin's doing well, invaded Georgia and we did nothing.

You do remember who was president when that happened? Yup, Commander Codpiece. He did make a fine speech, though.

Communists invaded Ukraine and we did nothing.

What are you talking about? That was during the 1920s. Putin hadn't even been born then.

Shot down KAL007 and we did nothing.


That was under your hero, Reagan. He did make a fine speech, though.

Shot down MH17 and we did nothing.

Actually, we did implement more sanctions. And it woke the Europeans up. They considered it their 9/11. Now granted, we don't have a Commander Codpiece out there courting nuclear war. But Putin has backed himself in a corner, losing support in Russia with the common people and the oligarchs are scared white. Putin has put Russia on a path that leads to a broken Russia like right after the Soviet Union collapse. While an accomplishment, it isn't a particularly notable one.

Would you like to continue? Or are you content with rewriting history?
