If he spurns the Marines he spurns America. LeadHead is a Putin puppet vacant an idea of his own. President Reagan's only error was not finishing Russia when he had the opportunity. R.K.- Ct.

More Russian bravado. If they had any brains they would be embracing a merit-based, free society while we manage our transition to the entitlement-based society. Thats the way to win.

If you care about your children's future, you would not buy Luk Oil gasoline.. It is Russian oil and Russia is selling weapons to Venezuela, Iran, Cuba and all of the countries that would celebrate our demise. Protect your children's future. No Luk Gas.

They spurned the Marines in this particular instance. Too bad in the TRUE arena for Marines, the batttlefield, the Russians would be run through by the end of a bayonet. The only problem of the resurgent Russia is their wealth of petro dollars. Yet ANOTHER reason to drill our own oil! But of course, the Idiot in Chief Elect will sink any notion of doing what it REALLY takes to achieve energy independence. And we'll continue to fund more countries & groups that will use those very proceeds to meet us on the battlefield. Either now, by funding terror, or later, by possibly funding the Russian military complex that we may eventually have to face. Just look at China, for God's sake. They don't even have that much oil, but their goal of a blue water Navy is closer every day. We would do well to keep an eye on both of them.

Russian Puppets are very sensitive and need to be handled with kid gloves. The Russian Foreign Ministry sent the White House a memo before the meeting that Mr. Medvedev tended to vomit and go into epeleptic seizures whenever approached by tall, strong, virile types in Red, White, or Blue uniforms. Since US Marine uniforms have all three of these colors, it was requested that one not approach Mr. Medvedev too close, and that the Russian KGB agent be allowed to open his door for him. Get the pic? (PS: He also has this violent reaction whenever Czar Putin approaches him too close.)

Stupid Russians. Didn't you remember that the force yo sent into Georgia was your absolute best? And, that is all the forces you have to use. Ha! Your little tirade into a sovereign country consumed A LOT of your logistical resources. And (and this is really funny) you took such a teeny tiny little amount of land. And (even funnier) you lost some mechanized vehicles. Should shown some respect for the US. Remember, when your men are on the field and facing us off, we will remember this. We will only use a few A-10's on your troops. The jarheads will just sit back, watch and laugh as what is left of your empire goes up in a poof of smoke.

I think this is a mis-read of what happened. The United States Secret Service would NEVER allow a foreign national of any type, in any location open the door to the Presidential motorcade. The USSS would certainly never allow a foreign military person from Russia to even touch the Limo. Any first rate nation would probably not allow it for anyone other than the White House which they did. However, the Special Agent In Charge of the Russian Security Detail would do the same as the USSS if our President were in Moscow.

I too agree. The secret services's job is to protect the presidents and even the money spending left-wing illuminati.
