WASHINGTON (AP) -- Delivering a blunt warning to Moscow, President Barack Obama expressed deep concern Friday over reported military activity inside Ukraine by Russia and warned "there will be costs" for any intervention.

He did not say what those costs might be.

Most kids learn early in life not to taunt the playground bully.

Putin probably can barely resist the urge to issue a public reply. You'd think our President was the straight man in an act. Criminy man, forget the tough talk and ride it out.

Ukraine is flat broke. Kiev needs at least $35 billion in immediate loans. Russia has withdrawn its offer of $15 billion. Who wants to lend money to a bankrupt, chaotic Ukraine filled with restive, angry people?

Ukraine needs a bailout, that is how this whole scenario started. Is the EU or the U.S. willing to step up to the plate and bankroll Kiev. Even if they did, there would be many objections by the many citizens aligned with Russia.There are many other issues at play here.

Just saw a tweet that was almost immediately deleted, by a guy accusing Putin of being racist, because he wouldn't challenge a white president

It was a retweet......not sure but it might have been a joke

Scary notion that this do nothing President is hurriedly gathering his academic arsenal of eggheads to try and decide what's next.

Nobody wants a war with Russia over Ukraine.......but always being flat footed is a horrible position to be in when it comes to Foreign policy

OK, JR, you're on tonight!

Too bad Leno's not on any more -- he'd use one or both of those.

Most people truly believe that "Communism" is dead in Russia....Not me...

Same old chit, just a different brand of it....

When I was a kid, I recall, on TV, the then Premier of the Soviet Union, Nikita Kruschev,, him taking his shoe off at the U.N, while banging it on the desk and hollering "We will Bury You"....And, I am paraphrasing here, he uttered words to the effect, "No matter how long it takes, we will bury you"...

That always stuck with me thru the years, as that is how Communism works, just as if there is all the time in the world...

As we get closer and closer to the "NWO", it is very plain to see what is going on here, imo...

Evil people such as the Atheistic Commies never change, they are relentless...
