This is ominous, especially in view of Putin’s military doctrine that states Russia would use nuclear weapons “in response to large-scale aggression utilizing conventional weapons in situations critical to the national security of the Russian Federation,” that is, even if Russia proper hadn’t been attacked.
After all his huffing and puffing at Russia’s annexation of Ukraine’s Crimea, after (reportedly) funding, arming and training the pro-EU Ukrainian protesters, Obama just declared that the U.S. and NATO will NOT use force, whatever happens in the Ukraine, thereby giving Vladimir Putin the green light to go ahead.
We now know what the Obama Doctrine is: Talk bullish and carry a wet noodle, aka Whip the Fish:

The plain truth is the U.S. government is broke.
Our OFFICIAL $17+ trillion national debt is now an alarming 108% of our gross national product.
And yet Obama and both parties in Congress want to give $1 billion to Ukraine, which will not only be money down the drain, but is also in violation of our own law!
Let’s see, NBC reportedly dumped Jay Leno because of his Obama jokes.
Now, Jimmy Fallon is doing it. LOL

Charles Bolden, the chief of the Nasa, has warned that the US space agency’s best advice on how to handle a large asteroid heading towards New York City is “pray”.

Mr Bolden told US lawmakers that prayer was all that the US or anyone could currently do about unknown asteroids and meteors that may be on a collision course with Earth.
An asteroid estimated to be have been about 55 feet (17 metres) in diameter exploded on Feb 15 over Chelyabinsk, Russia, generating shock waves that shattered windows and damaged buildings. More than 1,500 people were injured.
Later that day, a larger, unrelated asteroid discovered last year passed about 17,200 miles (27,681 km) from Earth, closer than the network of television and weather satellites that ring the planet.
The events “serve as evidence that we live in an active solar system with potentially hazardous objects passing through our neighborhood with surprising frequency,” said Representative Eddie Bernice Johnson, a Texas Democrat.
“We were fortunate that the events of last month were simply an interesting coincidence rather than a catastrophe,” said US House of Representatives Science Committee chairman Lamar Smith, a Texas Republican.
Mr Smith called a hearing on Tuesday to learn what is being done and how much money is needed to better protect the planet.
Nasa has found and is tracking about 95 percent of the largest objects flying near Earth, those that are .62 miles (1 km) or larger in diameter.
“An asteroid of that size, a kilometer or bigger, could plausibly end civilization,” White House science advisor John Holdren told legislators at the same hearing.
But only about 10 percent of an estimated 10,000 potential “city-killer” asteroids, those with a diameterof about 165 feet (50 meters) have been found, Mr Holdren added.
On average, objects of that size are estimated to hit Earth about once every 1,000 years.
“From the information we have, we don’t know of an asteroid that will threaten the population of the United States,” Mr Bolden said. “But if it’s coming in three weeks, pray.”
In addition to stepping up its monitoring efforts and building international partnerships, Nasa is looking at developing technologies to divert an object that may be on a collision course with Earth.
“The odds of a near-Earth object strike causing massive casualties and destruction of infrastructure are very small, but the potential consequences of such an event are so large it makes sense to takes the risk seriously,” Mr Holdren said.
About 66 million years ago, an object 6 miles (10 km) in diameter is believed to have smashed into what is now the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, leading to the demise of the dinosaurs, as well as most plant and animal life on Earth.
The asteroid that exploded over Russia last month was the largest object to hit Earth’s atmosphere since the 1908 Tunguska event when an asteroid or comet exploded over Siberia, leveling 80 million trees over more than 830 square miles (2,150 sq km).
I guess it would be “Assume the Position” Head between leg’s and kiss your Arse goodbye.

I first wrote about Tom Fife (photo above) more than two years ago, in my post of May 24, 2010, “Obama, a Sleeper Agent for World Communism.”
Fife is an American businessman and physicist. During the 2008 presidential campaign, Fife, then a U.S. government contractor, wrote an essay claiming that in 1992 while he was visiting Moscow, a woman with undying allegiance to Soviet Communism (the Soviet Union had recently collapsed, on December 31, 1991) told him that a black man named Barack, born of a white American woman and an African male, was being groomed by communists to be, and would be elected, President of the United States.
Fife’s story just won’t go away. In an interview (below) with geopolitical analyst Jeff Nyquist, Fife amplified on his 2008 account. The woman specified that this black man Barack, whom the Soviets were grooming to be U.S. President, is himself “a Soviet,” that is, a communist. She also said Barack was from Hawaii, educated in “Ivy League” schools, had been to New York, and was presently in Chicago.
Three years after Fife’s encounter with the woman in Moscow, in 1995, Barack Obama was chosen by Alice Palmer to succeed her in the Illinois State Senate. Palmer was an admirer of the Soviet Union and had attended the 27th Communist Party Congress in the Soviet Union. Palmer announced that Obama was her chosen successor in the Chicago home of Bill Ayer, a self-described communist and former terrorist of the Marxist Weather Underground.
Note: The original YouTube video that I uploaded to this post when the latter was first published on Dec. 12, 2012, is no longer available. Here’s a replacement I found on March 16, 215:

Maybe now we know why, on March 26, 2012, Obama made that cryptic remark to Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. Not realizing that his words would be picked up by live microphones, Obama told Medvedev “This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility,” and asked for Russia’s patience — for more “space” and “time”.
Maybe now we believe Alan Hulton‘s story, to which he had sworn in an affidavit. Hulton was the mailman for Bill Ayers’ parents for ten years. He once met Barack Obama, who was visiting the senior Ayers. When Hulton asked Obama what his plans were for the future, Obama declared in a manner as if this was something that had already been determined: “I am going to be president of the United States.”
