Obama / Putin poll

[deaddogseye]

Who do you respect more as a world leader?

 

[westwall]

Neither to be honest. But if I must choose then Putin has been more statesmanlike than Obama.

 

[skye]

Putin of course!

What a question

 

[HenryBHough]

Putin has proven himself a world leader.

But then so did Joe Stalin.

That makes them world leaders - not necessarily objects of affection.

Remember when America used to have world leaders? Surprising how many basement-blogging children (defined by Obamacare parental policy eligibility as under age 26) have never even read of those men and (OK, few) women.

 

[hjmick]

Neither.

If forced to choose...

I wouldn't.

 

[HenryBHough]

Neither.

If forced to choose...

I wouldn't.

You just chose Obama. Wishy-Washy.

Live with it.

Putin is the most successful organized crime boss in history. He sits atop a vast network of bribery and corruption that boggles the mind in it's complete dominance of Russian commerce. Now we know how conservatives would rule without an opposition party to keep them (somewhat) honest.

 

[Decus]

Barney Fife or Keyser Soze? Barney is loveable, convinced his ideas work and so very incompetent. He also believes he is the smartest man in the room. Keyser is manipulating, can be charming and is probably capable of mass murder. He is often the smartest man in the room.

Barney gets my vote if the category was comedy.
Keyser wins however if the vote is for best action hero.

Neither seem desirable as president.

Next time Oblama is golfing he's going to Putin a birdie.

I'll bet you anything Obama has given away more of other peoples money than Putin ever will.

As to the OP, neither are world leaders... And I wouldn't pick either one over the other.

Good point, Obama sure has gotten good at golf on all the water guzzling privet golf courses with billionaires he helps keep rich.

Great point in fact.

 

[Katzndogz]

obama is a clown complete with rubber nose and frizzy wig. He's laughable. Even more so, because he goes around thinking he's some sort of influential leader.

 

[The T]

Neither to be honest. But if I must choose then Putin has been more statesmanlike than Obama.

Neither...One that finds Tyranny old hat from his KGB days against one wannabe tyrant. Some choice.

Oh WOW, did that cartoonist really put STARS on President Putin's chest!

That will go over great with Russians.

No...those are representations of pain...see the words "Noogie Noogie"?

Putin of course................but I'd rather have the garbage guy over Obama............perhaps even the guy cleaning the Port-O-lets at work over Obama as well.

Compare these quotes:

Great point in fact.

"Obama has given away more money than anyone" and, "Obama's made billionaires richer."

So whose money has Obama given away? It's not the sweet innocent billionaire job creators who only create jobs overseas. Obama's made them richer. 95% of financial gains since 2009. Those aren't small numbers. Do you understand the obvious flaw in blaming Obama for there being so many unemployed people when the 1% so-called "job creators" have more money than ever with which to create jobs? Why aren't job creators creating any jobs?
